Puppy Drinking Water Schedule. Young puppies who are transitioning from mother’s milk to solid food need 0.5 cup of water every two hours. As previously mentioned, you’ve got to make sure you’re maintaining a regular feeding schedule for your puppy.
How to deal with a hungry puppy? After feeding, bring your puppy outside, and then allow him free playtime until feeding him again at 5 p.m. Drinking more water or being more active reduces the amount of time that your puppy can “hold it”.
One of the times when you might need to make some changes to your gsd puppy’s water intake is during housebreaking.
It’s completely normal for a puppy to pee right after drinking water, especially, when they drink too much too fast. Around 3:30 or 3:45 p.m., let your puppy outside to relieve himself, and then bring him inside for playtime, food and water. One final chance to get it all out before bed time! A puppy should be losing the round belly at this point.
