How much water do your Mastiffs drink per day (approximately)? I know it varies by size, weather conditions, food intake etc. so just looking for an average. Bane sometimes drinks up to a gallon or more (in summer).
I also can't say exactly how much my guys drink. I have bowls of water out and Ella and Roy drink from them, but mostly they all drink from the bathtub faucet. Al drinks almost exclusively from the tub. The water bell does ring a lot in the summer months. I'm home most of the time, so they're lucky that I can turn the water on for them.
They have a water bell???
Lol, yes. They do. We taught the dogs to ring a bell to go out, but Al would bark for a drink from the tub. He doesn't drink from a bowl unless he's desperate. He also gets very worked up about things, so when he barks for a drink he keeps escalating in enthusiasm and it hurts my husband's ears. I decided to put a bell next to the tub. He mostly uses it. Unfortunately, Al is the guy that even though he knows a thing and does it multiple times a day ... it's always new. And he gets confused. He'll ring the gate or the wall or the couch instead of the bell by the door. Here's Al forgetting how to ring the water bell. My daughter thought is was too funny and made me video it. (The bell came from the outdoor decoration section of Tuesday Morning. It's the same one we use by the front door. No nails get stuck in it like they do the jingle bell type.)
