Pup drinks a ton of water

I have a 9 month old pup that drinks an excessive amount of water. I let her out twice a day and every time she passes a water dish, she drinks. Has water in her kennel she drinks alot if too. If I'm out there a half hour I'll see her drink 5 times maybe more and she's a little thing maybe 35 pounds. Any ideas?

Lots of reasons, most of which can be ruled out with a CBC and chem panel. Maybe kidney issues, diabetes, Cushing's disease. Maybe she's just thirsty. Simple vet visit will put your mind at ease.
