Thank you Tin Barn for the question, Drinking Post does not say that the automatic watering system is compatible with Dogs, however there are a few success stories on their webpage talking about dogs being able to learn and use the Drinking Post. I can tell you that Max was the first to drink out of it and he knows that is fresh water, when we go down he will come to it and want that water, he just hasn't been able to figure out the paddle. I recently read a comment on their webpage talking about a barn cat that was using the Drinking Post... I think it will just talk time for Max to figure it out and use it. The biggest challenge will be convincing Laura to take away all other water sources, to "Train" the goats to go to it. She will worry herself to death to do that... Thank you for watching and commenting.
Did they say how easy it would be to train Max to use the Drinking Post? Please let us know how long it takes, for him and the goats.
