Puppy keeps pouring water bowl

Advice Needed:

We have a 9mo Lagotto and almost 5mo Lagotto. Our 9mo old is pretty calm but the 5mo old is in her lagottoraptor phase BIG TIME!

Our biggest challenge is that she keeps tipping over her water bowl and wanting to step and splash in it within minutes of us cleaning the mess and filling it back up. Our 9mo old suffers because she doesn’t get water since it keeps being tipped over. Our temporary solution has been putting a plate in the bath at a slow drip rate to allow the dogs to drink but our young one can’t tip it over or splash.

What recommendations do you have that may help our girl conquer this habit? Any water bowls you recommend? We currently have the kind that is 3L and has a splash guard for when they take on a bunch of water but definitely not tip proof haha!

ETA: she likes to jump in with her dirty paws so I worry about the raised water bowls might be fun to her.

Thanks in advance!

It’s me; the crazy one who got two!

Just 2.5 months after getting our first Lagotto (she was 6 months old), we added another to the family today!, she is 4 months old.

Meet Bella (4mo) and Luna (9mo). They are best friends already!!!

Only 2.5 months in and getting a second!

I’m sure that I’m crazy but after only 2.5 months of having our precious little girl, we will be getting our second Lagotto this week! Am I crazy? Probably.
