Whаt wаs thе оnе thing yоu didn't knоw whеn yоu gоt yоur first dоg?

I already had practice with my aunt's dogs when they had to stay here for awhile so I pretty much know how to feed and bathe them. What I didn't know is that a shihtzu pretty much needs more looking after because no matter how much water she takes (and we thought she's already a heavy drinker), she still needs more. I took her for a check up when I noticed that her urine is turning orange. The vet prescribed medicated dog food and some antibiotics that took care of the problem. He said that crystals were present in the urine and was at the stage when it's almost forming into stones. Good thing I took her just in time too. Now I make her drink water more, even syringe it into her mouth just to be safe.
