if you're watching the puppy all the time- then you know how much he had to drink

You really should leave water out for him to drink anytime (except at night- and never in the DEN but can be in the play pen... I have more suggestions if you want to use a play pen)

and food should be on a schedule- other wise you'll end up with a dog that is lazy to eat all its food; b/c the food is always available
food should be a 'life reward'
