To encourage your dog to drink more water:
Praise them every time they drink water, and, if you think it worthwhile, give them a treat.
Keep water near, and keep it fresh.
Bring water along on walks and offer it to the puppy often, especially on hot and sunny days.
Add some flavor to the water, e.g., flavored ice cubes, tuna, or broth.
Give them wet food or soak up the dry food with a cup of water - they'll drink a bit more while eating.
