my yorkie drinks A LOT teddy likes to drink nice cold water from the fridge, is it just cause its cold or does he have something wrong?!?!? my vet told me to just watch him... he doesnt go to town unless its cold and fresh... i fill his bowl up (a reg cereal bowl) at least 8 to 10 xs a day.. thanks for your input |
8-10 cereal bowls a day?:eek: I'd give the water at room temp or slightly colder. If your Yorkie continues, I would wonder about diabetes insipidus. An average estimate would be one ounce per pound daily if they are eating dry kibble. So a four pound dog would drink about 1/2 cup daily give or take... |
well he is 6 lbs and 5 months old, (yes he is full yorkie) and LOVES to run outside and play!!! I also have a aussiepoo and they spend all day playing!! I was worried about diabetes, cause i had gest diabetes and i drank like a fish!! |
