Dog help-

[alphabassettgrrl]

My boss has a pair of beagles and loves them to death.

As far as the not drinking thing, I'm trying to get my boy to drink more. I suggest it to him frequently and offer him fresh water ( as water that has sat for a moment is no good anymore!). Often he'll take a drink. As others have said, though, as long as your little one does his business regularly, it's probably not much to worry about.
