I'd swear mine is 1/2 St.Bernard. He splashes water a couple of feet all around his water dish. Drools all over the place. I've slipped and fell on my ass a few times because of it. None of the other Labs I've had were like that. No, I'm not giving him beer. |

Had a Dob that was the same way. My wife would mop after he was done drinking.
|

|
Mine is terrible. Good thing he is an outside dog!

My Lab and my Golden are the same way. They like to play in the water bowls.
We use a 13 gallon trough outside for them and they take naps in the water. |
|
Our chocolate is as dumb as a box of rocks. Messy eater, messy drinker, food in the water bowl and a goofball in general. All our others labs we have had in the past were pretty good though.
Our Husky looks at the chocolate like O_o wtf is wrong with you and why are you in my house? Its funny you can literally watch Maya react to Amber's retardation with disgust lol |
|
Mine is. His water bucket is outside for that reason. And when he goes outside to drink he has to wait until he's thru dripping before he's allowed back in. After he licks his lips about 4 times he's gtg. |

A friend has a boxer that's one sloppy drinker. Has to keep a towel by the bowl, and every time she passes by she does a bit of maintenance. You can hear that dog drink from three rooms away!

Ive got two , a 70 lb female and a 95 lb male , the big goofball sticks his whole muzzle in the water to drink and then drips all over the house for 10 minutes
he does some funny shit |
|
My guys drink out of a 3.5 gallon but sometimes like to stand in it... that makes a mess...
|
|
My Rottie dribbles all over the place. Happiness is her coming over and resting her sopping wet muzzle on my knee just after she slurped up a gallon of water... Most of which is all over the floor. Her under-bite doesn't help any!
|
|
I can tell when Banjo has been drinking because he has water all over his face.
|
|
hell yes she is, i think just as much makes it out of the bowl, that makes it in her mouth
|
|
Yup, I can tell just by the sound if my Shepherd is drinking or my Lab. After my lab is done drinking there is usually water all around the water bowl.
I love her though. |
|
Oh yeah, it's water everywhere. Walking away from the bowl and water just falling out of his jowls.
|
|
|
Our GSD doesn't drink out of her water bowl. She only drinks out of the toilets. She slops water all over the bathroom floor.
|
|
Mine takes a mouthful of food and runs into her kennel and eats it one piece at a time.
|
|
View Quote no it doesnt, thats how all dogs drink, that doesnt explain why a lab puts equal amounts in the mouth and outside of the bowl |
|
View Quote Yeah, but my son's female Husky wouldn't spill a drop, ever. It's strange to watch her eat and drink. |

I bought a plastic tray that sits under the food and water bowls from Petco and it has made a world of difference. Something like this, https://m.ballarddesigns.com/products/bundle/245276?path=~bd~&cm_mmc=Google-_-2012-_-NBPS-_-PLA&mr%3AtrackingCode=AD12A61F-B17A-E211-ACC7-001B2163195C&mr%3AreferralID=NA&mr%3Afilter=75352949665&mr%3Aad=46776161425&mr%3Adevice=t&mr%3Amatch=&SourceCode=BDG006&origin=pla&mr%3AadType=pla&mr%3Akeyword=&gclid=CMbEi9qXmcECFQ8R7AodIAIAqw&redirect=y

All dogs slobber when they drink. They like it that way.
Did you expect your dog to casually sip water from a long stemmed wine glass? We kept our Lab's water bowl outside, even in winter. |
|
Mine walks off from his bowl and I swear half a gallon will pour out of his mouth.
|
|
My current GSD is about the worst I have seen, having had many types of dogs. Only beat out by a drop by the basset hounds. Never had any labs since I was a kid and cant say how sloppy they were as they were outside dogs.

My german shorthaired pointer sticks his muzzle into the water until his ears are touching the water. He sloshes and drips water all over the damn place. I love him though.

|
Yep. My lab probably get more water onto the floor than into her belly.
|
|
Yes.
I think her last 'drink' she fills her mouth full of water without swallowing, and then it pours out for 10' when she walks away. |
|
Mine at dog camp does the "water bowl" dance. Picture a retarded drunk kid with maraca shakers and substitute a full water bowl for the maraca shakers.
|
|
I thought this was going to be another one of the "I fucked up my knee because of the dog thread" I was gonna have to kick your ass, Jack has fucked up enough of our backpacking trips
He does make a pretty big mess though, maybe it's the Amish in him? |
|
|
The last Lab we had was. Her water bucket was outside. She was a yard dog.
|
|
One of mine sticks his face almost to his eyes into the bowl and then sucks it up as he pulls his head out.
We call it snorkeling. |
|
My pyr is like a hose with a pin hole leak. Sucks walking across the kitchen floor in socks.
|
|
Our Golden is.... she'll leave a easy to follow trail of water dribble for at least a few yards.
|
|
OP -
My lab slobber drinks exactly the same as yours. I have to keep her water bowl on a towel just to keep the inevitable water deluge to a minimum....
|
|
Mine thoroughly enjoys slapping the water with his paw until he, and everything around him, is a satisfactory level of soaked.
