This is a wonderful thing to do. More places need to do this. I'm curious though. Do they clean the bowls and refresh the water after each dog that drinks from the bowls..
Dottie, I was thinking the same thing. I had a problem with the dog parks because of this. They had water bowls all over, but the water was so dirty from all the dogs drinking out of it and slobbering. Chase got a bad infection and I didn't let him drink from them. I always brought my own water and bowl. They did put in drinking fountains after a while which was much better.
So nice that shop owners put out water for the dogs. It is well needed on hot days. Max looks like he is enjoying the drink.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to fill up so he can make sure to make sure other dogs know he was there!
DeleteIt's great that some of the business owners think of people's pets and provide water dishes for them. I bet those water bowls empty FAST!
ReplyDeleteyeah, they usually fill them and then forget about them. We walk him so early that the water is still cool.

DeleteWe always check the dish. If it looks nasty we stroll on by.
