We put a shallow bowl of water in with ours from about two weeks. Mind you, they seem to think it is some kind of cooling bed!

I also give ours a shallow water bowl when they start eating 'solids' at 2-3 weeks.

I always introduce water at 4 weeks when they start to lap wet food.

Re: Introducing puppies to drinking water

Agree with the posts above - when they start eating solids I put a shallow bowl of water out for them - but they play in it more than drink it at first!
