Puppy not drinking much water?

[Bright_Spark]

My Grandad's friend got his Pom puppy just before Christmas (I'll see if I can put a photo up), but has a couple of concerns so any advice would be appreciated.

The only thing is she is not drinking a lot of water though. She seems fine in herself- is playful etc.

Also yesterday she turned her nose up at her food (same as she has been on since he got her), but did eat some scrambled egg.

Are either of these things anything to be overly worried about? Sorry if these sound like numpty questions!

Thanks in advance

There are lots of picky dog type posts....u may want to scim over them, to get some tips......if u feed her a wet diet...i.e not alot of dry kibble, she will get alot of water from that, again, if she is bright and happy I would not worry too much.....try sticking to one type of feed and give her the 10 min, eat or not..then removed, only offer ver small amounts at a time, as not to waste or make it look like she has a small pile to get through

this will make her more eager to eat her next meal....which will be a good while away.

Whatever u do, dont' feel sorry for her and feed lots of tit bits or left over dinner, u will jsut make her fussy.
