It seems like when we started softening our water, our dog stopped drinking inside. She will not drink any water inside, even filtered water from our frig or bottled water, or ice cubes. We might try popsicles or water or broth in her food. When outside, she loves eating snow' Fortunately, we live in a climate where we have snow right now, and quite a bit. But when its really cold outside (today 10 above.) we would like her to drink inside. Any thoughts.

Well, you could put some snow in her dish and let it melt?? Good idea... not being facetious, just a thought.
Dogs can have their little preferences, possibly she doesn't like the water because it is from a water softener. Do you use the salt tablets in your water softener ?

Will she drink plain tap water ?
