When we go to bed, she has a potty break and then into her area with one ice cube, in case she gets parched during the night. I read in one of my yorkie books, the average yorkie needs only 2 oz of water in a 24 hr period. |
wow 2 oz??? This morning after letting Layla out to pee the first time (and she hadn't had water all night) she drank half her bowl of water
I went back to sleep briefly and woke up to her barking for more water because the bowl was bone-dry.
The vet suggested she may have a hormonal problem from the dark patches on her tummy, and asked if she was drinking more than usual, but I never noticed it until I've been trying to get her to pee outside exclusively. I guess now I'm just more aware of what's going into her and what's coming out. But I'm sure she never peed this much even before. She can't seem to go a night without water though.
