Good evening Mylotters! How's life going on? It was a very hot day. In fact it is a hot evening, too. It is almost 11 p.m. I have just checked how the temperature was and it stated 29 degrees celcius inside the house. Outside is 26. Not much difference. I was searching photos for my blogs and I saw this photo of Angus drinking the rain water from the huge bucket. I collected the water for my plants. Angus loves to drink rain water. I collected extra for him and put a bottle of rain water in the fridge. Does your dog love rain water? Anyway, we both drink a lot these few days due to the hot weather. I wish somebody can climb in our coconut tree in our back yard so I can drink coconut water again. So, good night for now. Take care.

Fresh coconut water is delicious, it's a shame nobody climbs to take the coconuts down. I have no dogs, but the cats of the neighbors come to drink the rain water.

I will find somebody this weekend for climbing the coconut tree @LadyDuck. I have not seen the cat of my brother drinking rain water.

@thelme55 I have uncovered the pond two days ago, now I know where the cats will go to drink, they love to drink from the pond.

My dog does not. I do not have one. The cat refuses to drink anything else and usually from puddles. It is cold here and I could collect barrels full of rainwater with the amount of rain we have been having.

I haven't seen a photo of Angus for ages. These are such dear little dogs. I think I'd choose one of these if I were going to have a dog.

That's true @JudyEv. Maybe because I am with him, I forgot to post a photo of him. I love his company and I enjoyed it very much while we are together. Yes, he is a very kind lovely silent lap dog.

Angus is so cute drinking the rain water from the bucket. have you seen in slow motion how dogs drink? i watched it on FB and the scene is slowed down a thousand pixels times, and it is so appreciative how dogs drink water. their tongues curl when they touch the water.

Our dog (actually it's our daughter's) does not drink rainwater because she's in a cage. She loves to drink milk which my wife wife gives her each morning. She licks the milk to the last drop :)

I used to give milk to my dog Angus but after I have read an article about how dairy products not good for a dog, so I stopped it @sunrisefan

I really don't know much about it since in the past we always fed our dog the tap water.

That's a cute candid shot of Angus. I haven't ever tried drinking rain water. I might as well do that too, so I can see the difference of the rain water from a regular water's taste.

Thank you @rina110383. Have you tried giving them a basin with rainwater? Maybe they will like it.
