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. |
LOL!!! Loki is an overachiever. I'm lucky if his 64oz bowl isn't empty by the end of the day
(He has a medical condition, this is NOT normal) I actually have to interrupt him when he is drinking so he can catch his breath and realize he has had enough to drink, otherwise he drinks so much it makes him sick!
Sammy will go hours without drinking and then drink a bunch. If I offer her water (like if we are out in the car) she will maybe take 2 licks. But man if that bowl is empty when she wants some she gets really mad, at Loki, LOL!
I keep a bowl upstairs for the same reason - otherwise they cry for water at night. When I let them out of the room in the morning to go downstairs and go outside, the first thing they do is get a drink. Can you try just leaving a tiny bit of water in a bowl next to the bed, then if she whines reach over and pour a little more?
