When I walk her she will do her first initial, normal size pee. Sometimes during the walk she will stop and smell something for a while and then do a little squat. I can tell that hardly any comes out, plus I know she is "empty" from the pee when we first started the walk.

Could your little one be marking? Maybe somewhere she was trained to pee immediately after drinking, such that she associates water with pee? If she was doing this since you got her it really could be a training thing. Maybe she had brothers who taught her about marking.

Double checking the UTI is a good idea also.
I have a male dog...he however, does not mark. I am wondering if she is a little "marker". We are going to wait another month to have her spayed because she is so tiny. I am wondering if that would help?

We had her tested for a UTI and it came back negative. I can ask the vet to again. When I spoke to the vet she said that because Piper is so little her bladder is tiny and because she is young it is in the developing stages.
