Guest ShelbysMom Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 What do I need to know? When should I be ultra worried. Brandi is 3.5 year old female. Longest she's gone before is 13 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTRAWLD Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Have you been taking her out and she's not eliminating or is she just not getting up from her bed wanting to go out?

Guest ShelbysMom Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Gone out many times today.....she just lays down in the yard sunning herself. She also went on a walk with DH to try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ShelbysMom Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I called the vet and spoke to her a few minutes. She doesn't seem too concerned. She told me to watch her food and water intact though. If either decrease dramatically, then go to the e-vet tonight. Otherwise I'm to call her in the morning and give her an update. We are now at 19 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeylasMom Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Are you sure you didn't miss her peeing? I have on occasion taken my dogs out to potty before bed and missed Skye peeing because I was watching Zuri pee and Skye doesn't take as long. What followed was me getting incresingly aggravated until I realized I probably just missed her going.

Hubcitypam Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Is it raining? My guys went that long without peeing during rain. I have a dog door and they often go 12+ without peeing. Long trotted out story of min is that dogs only drink when they are truly thirsty as opposed to humans that drink for caffeine, alcohol and/or social reasons.

HeidisMum Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I'm happy she peed! My Heidi held get bladder for over 30 hours because it was raining and she didn't like the rain. We went to the vet thinking she had another UTI. All was fine and they laughed when she peed on their dry lawn while I was writing a check. We try not to let them go that long, but you can't force them to go if they don't want to.

Guest ShelbysMom Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Visited the vet this morning just in case. The thought is she may not be drinking enough. Not dehydrated, but still not well hydrated either. We started her on hotdog water today....she has certainly been drinking more doing that.

PrairieProf Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 My Beth held it for over 24 hours when I first brought her home, so I wouldn't panic yet.

Busderpuddle Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hotdog water ? What is that and how do you make it ? Quote Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ShelbysMom Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hotdog water ? What is that and how do you make it ? Boil hot dogs in water, remove the hot dogs, let the water cool, then give to your doggie instead of plain water. You can also get no salt added chicken or beef broth to add to water instead.

Guest Loves4Greyz Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 We had a girl with a watermelon sized bladder. She didn't like rain and once held it for 26 hours. But what is hotdog water...water after you cook hot dogs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
