I haven't noticed an increase in water in take. He will have one episode of darker urine and than the rest of the day it is very light to clear urine. He can wait hours to go to the bathroom and it is still light/clear.
Light is ok it's when it is like water that it's a problem. I'm going to guess that food has a different calorie count then the old food and that is where your weight gain is coming from and not from Cushings. Normally dogs with Cushings have skin issues as well and not just putting weight on but a pot belly.
