How much is she drinking? She should drink 1-1.5oz per pound of body weight. Measure for a day and make sure she is drinking. Get more liquid in her by trying ice cubes or even diluted chicken broth.

I'd say she should be going at least 3-4 times a day. Loki goes about 10 times a day, so I'm no expert on that. He drinks twice what he should Sounds like you maybe have the opposite problem. Maybe she isn't drinking because she is in the crate? So make sure she gets water when she's out.

Not pooping for a day is no biggie. 2 days and I'd call the vet or try giving her something. Some people on here suggest pumpkin, but I've never used it so I wouldn't know what kind.

I don't know about the Husky, but Loki is almost 2 and I still crate him when we will be gone longer than 10-20 mins. It's safer. So don't feel bad about that!
