Question
We have a 7 mo. old Lab mix. She urinates constently. She went to day care yesterday and they said she went 28 times. Isn't that a bit to much. She only drinks when i let her, I try to limit her intake.

Answer
You need to have her urine checked to make sure that she doesn't have a urinary tract infection or diabetes.  If not, then you need to measure her water intake and only give her an ounce of water per pound of body weight per day.

There are some drugs that prevent excessive urination, but your vet would have to talk to you about those.
