Learn how to spot the signs of dehydration in your pets, from dry gums to dangerous lethargy, and understand how chronic dehydration can impact organs, especially in pets with kidney or urinary issues. Dr. Amber breaks down how much water your dog or cat really needs each day, how heat and activity affect hydration, and why panting might not always mean your pet needs a drink.

Whether you're at home or on the go, tune in for practical tips to keep your furry companions healthy and hydrated year-round.
