A dog constantly need to replace the water he
loses through panting and eliminating. Panting is the way he regulates his
body temperature during all types of weather. An average dog requires
approximately 1 ounce of water per pound of body weight per day. This means
that a 60 pound dog will need approximately 60 ounces, or two quarts of water
per day. When the weather is warm, or in times of stress, he may need
more. When traveling, you may want to bring along water from home to help
avoid stomach upset.
