The more fluid they need systemically, the faster the lumps go down...if they are really dehydrated, those lumps of fluid are absorbed quickly, as they become more balanced with their fluids systemically, those fluids under the skin (sub-q fluid) are absorbed more slowly....this is the fabulous thing about sub-q fluids....very difficult to fluid overload a pup, throwing them into a congestive heart failure issue from fluid overload.
