Something I learned this weekend:

For maintenance purposes, a dog’s daily water consumption can be calculated by:

water consumption = 60 ml water / kg of body weight

(1 pounds = 0.45359237 kilograms, 35 lb = 15.8757 kg)

A 35 lb dog requires 952.5 ml of water a day.  That’s roughly 1 Liter, or 32 fl oz (US).
