We recently got a new puppy, another St. named Finley. She seems really smart, but we have had a little trouble house breaking her. She has gotten down the concept that she shouldn't poop inside, but peeing is a whole other story. We call her the pee monster b/c she is peeing constantly, half of the time in and half of the time out. I talked w/ our trainer at petsmart and she suggested limiting her water intake. She said some dogs just drink a lot, sometimes more than they need.
When we first got her I tried to have a strict water curfew, no water after around 8pm. The problem was she was rough housing w/ Seamus even after 8pm and seemed soooo thirsty. I inevitably ended up giving her water b/c she was being active. I have sort of tried limiting the water on a small scale, I leave an empty bowl down and when she goes to it, typically I will give her some. I don't know how much a puppy should drink and it just seems like it can't be good for her. Is there such a thing as too much water?
What should I do? The pee monster is driving me crazy!
