Pet Tip
Dogs and Cats that Drink Too Much Water – Pet tip 240
Water is the elixir of life and it is essential to all living things. Our pets need to have access to water at all times and their water bowls should be filled with fresh water every single day. When our pets don’t get enough water dehydration can occur. Sometimes though, our pets drink too much water and although we know that water is good for our pets, too much is too much. Serious health problems can occur when our pets drink too much water. Sometimes the reason they drink so much stems from psychological or behavioural problems; other times the reason is medical. Either way, drinking too much water is dangerous for pets.
When a pet drinks too much water, its urinary system is also affected. What goes in must come out so thirst and urination are naturally linked.

My name is Guy and I was rescued from a smelly gas station in Vancouver where I was wandering around, trying to find my family! I guess they just misplaced me by accident!
At the gas station I was greeted by a nice man (he was called Guy too - what a coincidence) who took me to a nice warm kennel at the Vancouver Animal Shelter. I liked everyone at the shelter but I wanted my own house to run around in again! I knew after a few days that my family weren't coming for me but that was ok because a nice couple came by everyday to see me, play with me and take me for long walks beside a lake.
Then one day they came by with a new collar and leash for me and I now get to play, sleep and eat with them forever in my nice new house!
My new Mum and Dad love me very much and I am even allowed on the sofa! They aren't sure how old I am, but have had a good guess and my new birthday is Halloween - the day they brought me home to keep me safe from the fireworks!
I have great fun with my Mum and Dad. We go for long hikes and I even tried canoeing, which was a bit boring as I wasn't allowed to jump overboard and swim! Swimming is my favourite hobby and I can even chase my tail and swim at the same time now!
I get scared around some other dogs and they make me mad and grumpy, but when I see another dog that I don't know, I get to sit down and have a cookie until they walk by! They always look at me and I can tell they are so jealous! I don't like cats much either - they are too fast for me!
I have a new step-cousin called Taiga who I tease a lot, but I love him! I get to see him often and it's nice to have a buddy to hang out with!
I love my life and my new life adores me!
I'm off to play with my new ball!
Bye everyone!
Woof woof
Guy
