So can dogs drink cold water in winter? Actually, they can. Unless the dog is sick, it is enough to feed the dog with room temperature water all year round, and there is no need to deliberately change the temperature of the drinking water according to the weather.
Dogs have a special stomach and intestines. They are hungry and not full. Sometimes they drink some hot water or eat very hot food, but they are prone to vomiting. Because these foods with abnormal temperature can easily irritate the dog's stomach, causing gastrointestinal discomfort and various problems. Therefore, dogs can also drink cold water in winter, but they cannot be given ice water to drink, otherwise, it will greatly stimulate their intestinal tract, which may cause them to have gastrointestinal discomfort.
Dogs are not as fragile as we think. On the contrary, it is often because we dote on our dogs too much, for fear that something will happen to them, making their physique worse and worse. Dogs must not be rich, and if they eat properly, they will have many benefits.
