Breathe, and almost all other mammals can do so, save man.

More interesting to me, dogs do not lap water with the top of their tongue, but with the bottom. More of an upside down spoon.

That has always seemed strange to me too. Looks weird.

The correct answer is that they can continue breathing while drinking or eating.
Congrats to those that got it right and thanks for the other answers too -- pretty fun..

They "can" but don't have to, right? I've got one here that will bury her nose up to her eyeballs when she drinks.

Actually, the greatest amount of water is taken in from the UNDERSIDE of the tongue.
