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.

Shadow...you were a great dog...
You always knew juat what I needed, and gosh were you patient with me. I was only 9 years old when we brought home, this little ball of white fluff that followed me everywhere (thus your name)...I am still not quite sure we knew what we were getting into.
We took you to obedience class, which they tell me you passed. I am still not quite sure they informed you of that. You could be stubborn at times. I did manage to teach a few cool tricks that no other dog has ever been able to master.
As we grew older, I had less time for you, I had boyfriends, dances, basketball & football games, and college but, you always had time for me.
You grew into an old dog in front of my eyes, your once luxurious fur began to thin and your tail was almost hairless, but nobody could tell you should relax cause you were as senior. You live for a good game of tuggy and never missed a treat tossed at you long after your joints, eyes and ears had begun to fail. Thunderstorms started to frighten the fearless dog I knew, but still you were special to me.
It is funny that the most annoying things about you are what I miss most, your high pitched bark and terrible breath.
I am sorry I was not there the last time you closed your eyes, cause I know had it been the other way around you would have been there for me. Hopefully, you waiting at Rainbow Bridge, youthful and pain free again, for me to take you with me acrossed the bridge to heaven. You'll never be far from my thoughts!!!
