had this happen to a greyhound every time it raced was told by a greyhound vet to give the dog ascorbic acid tablets think they were called slow k had to give them to the dog a couple of days before it raced and the day after never had another problem with it when it raced after that.

what was actually wrong with the dog though? what does the ascorbic acid do?

[sandymere 8,263]

Ascorbic acid is vit C. Slow K is likely a potassium supplement.

I'd go for a good fitness regime prior to work then start work slowly and hopefully it will resolve. If the problem still continues then is the time to consider medication as an intervention.

makes you wonder if it is a nutritional deficiency, or is it a genetic issue?
