[Mr Hunter 30]

A lot of greyhound trainers use it in the summer months for their dogs but a topic on this forum moved on to the use of this after a lads dog had fitted in his car after a nights lamping and not many had used it they used the trusty mars bar trick.But you can buy all ingredients to make your own over the counter at a chemist which will save a fortune.

sugar in water

[mattydski 560]

Sugar in water is a good source of energy.. Electrolytes also contain salts to aid in rehydration, which is not as efficient with just sugar.

Good rehydration is essential in sports nutrition to reduce the recovery time...and hence allow the athlete/dog to repeat his performance again in a shorter time spell.]

Yea i use electro lite replacements after a hard nites lampin, i use Recharge n dilute it with water.. U can also use Beta-cel, its a powder sprinkled over food for dogs in heavy work/trainin..

hope this helps..

sugar in water is over simplifing it read the ingrediants on the isotronic sports drinks and youll see

heres a recepi i found 2 teaspoons lo salt

1 1/2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda

4 teaspoons glucose

mix and add 1 tablespoon to 1/2 gallon of water.

this solution is made for dogs only but still tastes like dishwater

[Guest dances]

it was over simplifing it i know, but sugar in water is a good help should you not have electrolites

saved a dogs life once useing the good old gatorade from the states she ran her hare several in fact came back wobbled got the gatorade 5 mintes later she was fine

[Wild_and_Irish 11]

Use diluting orange with sugar and a teaspoon of salt, our hurling coach gives that to us, or if you want just mix up some water with the lucozade sport powder you can buy, same thing.

I use Liquid Life Aid, works very well for my dogs, just as good as recharge, but less expensive.

Same here ,Frank ... I use the same product when tempertures unexpectedly climb during the pheasant season . High temps are tough on Labs .

 

My running dogs also get it after a long coyote chase .

handy to have a bottle in the back of the truck helps you never know when you might need it. also use them for pigeon racing just as good does the same thing always helps after a race.

put it with the oxy bottle and plasters ,you will be geting them nice new pink coats next dai,in case it rains when they are out .mate if you work them loose ,and start them young you wont have any need for stuff like that because they will get to know their limits ,unlike the slip and chase at 100 mile a hour dogs .plus they will find a drink if needed .
