On average dogs should have about 1 oz of water for every 1 pound of weight.
This will vary depending on dry or wet food, activity level, etc.
You can test the elasticity of your dogs skin - gently pull up on the skin on the back of her neck. If it goes back quickly, then she should be fine. Dogs do tend to loose elasticity as they get older. This may not help if your dog is overly skinny or chubby.
I would monitor her behavior (as you have been doing) for any changes or symptoms. A quick trip to the vet may help to determine if there is an issue or not. |
