My basset hound, Noba, eats once a day. I put food down for him in the morning, and he won't eat until about 2-3 pm. He went on a hunger strike and didn't eat for over a week not too long ago... so I had to find a new tactic. Some great advice by a few PTers to put warm to hot water in his food to entice him with the added smell helped tremendously and he finally started eating again!!Problem is now, he won't eat unless there is warm / hot water in his food....

Now my question is, with bassets having such large chests and potentially being prone to bloat... I've heard that drinking right after eating can help cause bloat. With the water in his food, is this dangerous??
