I didn't want to hijack any of the other dog threads so thought I would start a new one. Just wanted to know if you filter your dogs water and not allow him to drink from the stream? My inlaws when we have all gone to Elephant Bute in NM have taken their dog and let him drink straight from the lake. Come to think of it, we have swam in the lake and Im sure water has entered my mouth. But Ive also seen people hiking with their dogs and seen their dogs jump in the stream and drink.
I want to start conditioning my dog to go hiking with me but wanted to see what others have done when it comes to water. Thanks.
