How much water is appropriate for a dog to drink a day?

The amount of water a dog drinks is mainly affected by 5 factors, which can be increased or decreased depending on the situation.
Weight: Adult dogs: 180~120 ml;
                    Puppies: 140 ~ 170 ml.
(per kg of body weight per day)
Staple food: Dogs eating dry food drink more water than dogs eating wet food.
Puppies: Due to their physical development, they need more water than adult dogs.
Climate: When the weather is hot, more water is needed to evaporate for cooling.

How to deal with dogs drinking too much water

Take your dog to the doctor for treatment in time; under normal circumstances, you only need to provide the dog with an appropriate amount of water every day, and you can’t drink any more after drinking it. It should be noted that you should carefully check every corner of your home to prevent your dog from "stealing" water somewhere.
