I have a sunconure that can't get enough water, Sam even will "shower" in our refrigerator water dispenser, however the girls Izzy and Gabby, CAG's have decided to try the kitchen sink, they'll drink right out of the tap,and play with it, but only Gabby has been brave enough to actually get wet, Izzy is totally against it...I bought this round 18" by 1" high dog dish that was metal, and have put ice cubes and water in it...they love it, but again only Gabby is brave enough to get in and play.
