Title: On a lighter subject - Water
Post by: Dave C on April 27, 2020, 13:11.

We lived in Tenerife for 16 years. Now we live in GA. In Tenerife, a few people left 5-8 ltr water bottles oustide
their properties. But here it is done far more. Can anyone tell me the purpose of this?

It is true. If you just tie a 2 litres plus bottle of water to any dogs leg and it makes it impossible for them to lift their legs or at least the leg that has the bottle attached to it!

Has any research been done to find which leg a dog lifts?
