My Yorkie, Gizmo is 12yrs old and recently started to take Lasix for the same problem. All he wants to do is drink and pee. I give him the medication early in the morning and it seems like by night he has settled down and sleeps. But, he pees in his cage constantly which he never did before. He also starts barking early in the morning to go out. I feel for you.
