Can dogs drink mineral water? Will there be problems with dogs drinking mineral water? Dogs can drink mineral water. There is no problem for dogs to drink some mineral water normally, but it is not recommended to drink it for a long time.

The high content of metal ions in mineral water can easily lead to excessive mineral intake of dogs. Some minerals are excreted slowly and easily form urinary stones. It is better to give dogs clean water because clean water is closer to the water they consume in the wild.

It is best for dogs to drink boiled tap water in daily life, which is also what we commonly call boiled water. After the tap water is boiled, the bacteria and viruses in the water have almost been killed by high temperatures. The water is safe and healthy at this time. Be careful not to drink soda or other beverages for dogs. As the dog's kidneys are very burdened and can easily cause kidney diseases.
