    I'd ask the vet about that, if there is some physiological reason she does that or something. Never heard of that. Because she's got such a wide mouth, is it possible she's taking in too much air when she drinks, and that's why she throws it back up?

    Well that vet never said it was a problem, and she's not dehydrated.

    I'm assuming she thinks its going to disappear and never come back!

    Actually her taking in too much air makes since, because she burps. So do you think its common in the breed?

    Takin too much air is very common for the breed. If it is not physically based, it is likely behaviorally based. Can you put a big rock or something in her bowl to slow down her drinking?

    I was going to suggest a stone in the bowl to slow her down in drinking.

    What an odd issue! They always seem to develop something new and untried.

    I'll try to put a big rock in there to see if that helps,
    and make sure to let you all know how it goes.

    Thank you for the suggestions! (:

    Hopefully she is healthy. I would check for a thyroid or kidney problem with excessive drinking.

    Your dog is probably diabetic. Insulin for the dog can be purchased but is very expensive. You should take the dog to the vet and have the vet check for diabetes. My best suggestion other than the insulin is to sacrifice a cat to the almighty father satan, for he is the only one who can cure the diabetes. Make sure that it is a big cat for the hunger of our lord is hard to quench.
