Jazmin doesn't wee very often, maybe 3/4 times aday.
She drinks and is healthy in every way.
The thing is, most of our other dogs used to go first thing after waking in the morning, but not Jazmin.
She will go last thing at night,it could be 10 or 12midnight.
The next day it could be 12noon before a wee, she always has a poo in the mornings. Two maybe three poo's a day.
She has been the vets, they said no infection just very concentrated.
The thing is Jazmin has a 'inni' (her tush is up and has not dropped, only when in season) she is speyed.
The fur around her tush is red/brown.
Has anyone got this with there bitch.
I do bathe her tush now and again, but she keeps herself clean (as she should)
My worry is, if she is ok why the staining, her wee is strong when she goes, but would this be the reason?

it could be the strength of her urine it could also be her saliva

Zandi rarely pees only when he has to about 3x a day and he drinks gallons - his peeing sessions can last 5 mins, i used to have someone come in daily but in other 7 month he only peed 1x whilst they were there, i can be home for over a hour before he wees

The vet did say, people are different in their toilet habits, and it's the same with dogs.
That maybe true, but to wait sixteen hours between wee's just seem's strange.
They do say people are like their pets.
No I dont wait sixteen hours, but I could be 'strange'

Sami used to do it, not so much now her ageing bladder is a bit less forgiving.

I have known her go a ridiculously long time before going for a pee when she was younger.

Tilly often won't go first thing in the morning, + she certainly won't dash out for a pee if it's raining

I think they are all different hunni, I wouldn't be worried unless she's clearly in pain or distress or if vet tells you there's a problem. I suppose her bits contracting might be like an undescended testicle in a boy? But I really don't know, all you can do I think hun is watch for signs of discomfort xxxxxxx
