A strange question but i wonder if anyone can help? Our little Maltese has once again been admitted to the vets today because she is dehydrated and not eating. The vet is of the opinion that she is stressed and i have to agree she seems frightened of her water bowl. She is only tiny and has had lots of blood taken and xrays the last few weeks apart from the colitis and pancreatitis which are stable nothing else has shown up. We are picking her up later and were wondering apart from keeping the house as stress free as possible if anyone could recommend anything. We are obviously very worried and I'm sure she picks up on that. Thanks.

You could try a DAP defuser which can reduce stress & how about some T(Tellington)touch massage

which releases the bodies natural endorphins & helps to relax the dog
