Working Dog Trifecta……..Preventing Training & Hunting Fatigue

For many dogs, being a loving pet is their biggest challenge. Looking all cute and cuddly and showing affection is all they are called upon to do. For other dogs, training, hunting, tracking, dock diving and fast cat and a myriad of other sports keep these dogs mentally and physically challenged. Obviously, there are increased nutritional needs these canine athletes need to keep them at the top of their game, but also to keep them healthy and help them with a quick recovery from activity and get them back in the game! We at Fido-Vite see this as the quadrathlon of working dog nutrition; Nutrient status, Digestive health, Hydration and Recovery!

Nutrient Status

Stress is where nutrient status or nutrient bank comes into play. Our dog stores major minerals, trace minerals, fat-soluble vitamins and proteins. When our dog is under stress, the dog draws upon its’ nutrient status to help get through this stressful period. Nutrient status can be the difference between success and a dog that crashes. We recommend using SportzDog for at least 90 days if not year-around before these challenges to build-up nutrient status.

Digestive Health

There is research that shows that being proactive with a probiotic/prebiotic combination going into a shelter/boarding situation will reduce diarrhea days. Traveling with our dog while technically not boarding will have many of the same elements as travel, change in environment, different water and other stressors that can trigger loose stools. Fido-Vite SportzDog contains the probiotics, prebiotics and other ingredients that support digestive health.

Hydration

Water intake is very key to the health and recovery of your dog when hard work is involved. Proper hydration of your dog will flush out excess lactic acid that builds-up in the muscles leading to soreness, fatigue and slower recovery. Fido-Vite Hydration has a novel combination of electrolytes, carbohydrates, B-vitamins, prebiotics and anti-inflammatory ingredients that encourage water intake while energizing your dog’s performance.

Recovery

After a hard day of work, inflammation can lead to pain and discomfort that may interfere with your dog’s ability to rest comfortably, hindering tomorrow’s performance. This is where the natural anti-inflammatory ingredients of CoMega DHA come in. Each level scoop of CoMega DHA delivers 400 mg of anti-inflammatory DHA Omega 3 along with anti-inflammatory coconut oil and turmeric. Coconut oil delivered in both SportzDog and CoMega DHA is a good source of Medium Chain Triglycerides that is a more readily source of energy than other fats and has a glycogen (muscle stored energy) sparing effect leading to faster recovery.
