5 year old golden retriever chihuhua mix not getting enough water

Dog Question: I have a 5 year old golden retriever/chihuhua mix. She recently seems to not be getting enough water. Like she has a dry throat. Is there something else I can do for her to keeep her mouth wet. If I leave water down all day she has an accident.

Hi Gigitte,

Sorry to hear about your dog.

If your dog has access to water a couple of times a day, she should be getting enough water.

If she is not coughing, then maybe the air in your house is too dry?

Sometimes pets can benefit from a humidifier?
