LOL! I'm not laughing because it's funny; I'm laughing in sympathy. Seriously. I've posted about this a ton in my year on this board. I'm happy to report chewie drinks a ton more now than she did, and that's a large part due to her little "doggie pack" she hangs out with on sundays. I will say right off of the bat that my girl at 4.5-5.2 pounds that she hovers between only needs 4oz of water a day. That's it. So, I'm guessing your gal is drinking enough for her. However, if you're concerned I can tell you that I added water to her food and sometimes homemade chicken broth as well. It helped me feel better.
