How To Train A Chi To Drink From A Bigger Version Of A Hamster Water Dispenser?
If you read my past question two people recommended that, so I was thinking how am I going to train it to use the water dispenser?

I wouldn’t recommend it myself.
I worked at a pet store for a few years, and the owners tried to integrate that into the puppy cages to cut down on spilled water.
At one point, I was up front helping customers and heard horrific noises coming from the back of the store where the puppies were kept.
I ran back and found the water bottle on the floor, and the hanger, still attached to the side of the kennel, crammed about halfway down one of the German Shepherd puppies throats. He’d knocked the water bottle off and tried to swallow the hanger, which was small enough to become partially lodged in his throat.
I had to dislodge it myself, and ended up getting my hand torn up in the process (the hanger cut me to the point of bleeding; so you can imagine what it was doing to the puppy’s throat.)
To make a long story short, the puppy survived, but I hate to imagine what would have happened had this gone on after hours.
