Hi there! I have an issue going on with my 9 week old border collie, Daisy. She will not leave water in a dish! She kept dumping her little water dish, so I got her a big 5 gallon auto feeder that was too heavy to dump, only now she digs at the water spraying it everywhere. I read up on causes and no she is not too hot (I'm going through menopause, my house is freezing, or so I'm told lol). None of the dishes were reflective either. She isn't bored, I'm with her 24/7 and she has TONS of toy options. I think she just really loves playing in water. I was told about hanging dishes, but I am fairly positive she will figure out how to dump those as well. I also heard about hanging feeder bottles (like for rabbits, but designed for dogs). I went on Amazon to purchase one and read horror stories about dogs biting through the metal and seriously injuring themselves. Most reviewers blamed cheap metal as the problem. So my question is is there a non cheap brand that won't potentially hurt my pup that anyone can recommend? Or has anyone had success breaking this behavior?
