| Gus itching/drinking increased after move to florida Is this normal that my little baby's thirst has increased ALOT even though we have only been in fort lauderdale for less than 24 hours? He also has been itching quite frequently..and seems very reluctant to go potty outdoors. Of course I understand that Maryland is a completely different environment than Florida so it is normal for Gus to be quizzical of his new surroundings, but I'm worried he is getting dehydrated/forming allergies. Any suggestions?

| I wouldn't think 24 hours would be long enough to develop allergies, but I'd keep an eye on him. Not sure about the need for additional water, maybe just the temperature difference??? Its very common for pups to lose some of their progress w/ potty training when their stressed and after moves. Just give him some time to get back into a pattern.

| Having wintered in FL in the past, I feel I must warn you about the fire ants. They are very very tiny and have very painful stings. Be careful where you walk your pup! Good luck
