[nagdu] Changes in relieving schedule?

[Raven Tolliver]

Daryl,
Just as you don't need to use the bathroom at the same times every
day, dogs also need to relieve at different times on different days,
even if you feed and water them at the same times each day. Also, the
body is constantly at work: fending off environmental assaults,
healing itself, and eliminating foreign bodies , harmful substances,
and unnecessary nutrients. I would not worry about the relief schedule
unless her schedule is out of whack for the next few days and you find
that she's urinating or defecating more frequently or less than what
is normal for her. Variation in output is normal for everyone.
