Hello all.
I have noticed that my Lexi seems to drink alot and pee alot. I was hoping she would have been able to hold her pee for several hours by now. She is 9 months old. We had her spayed about a month ago and they did the bloodwork and she checked out fine. I am still worried that maybe she could have a liver shunt but I do not know if the blood work would have ruled that out. She acts fine in all other areas. But she pees about once an hour (at least) when she is awake. She rarely can hold it all night. She also drinks like the whole bowl of water at a time. Am I worrying unneccesarily? Do any of your yorkies behave in this manner? Thanks for any input.
