Dehydration Kills 4000 Dogs - Give Your Dog a Drink to Fight Off Dehydration
Last year, a score of sporting dogs died from dehydration. The climate and lack of proper hydration cause many great and dedicated dogs to expire.
White River Junction, VT (PRWEB) June 22, 2004 -- Dehydration due to exercise
and high temperature can lead to heat-related disorders, ranging from simple
heat cramps to life-threatening heat stroke and even death. Canine athletes in
the field, such as pheasant hunting, need to be encouraged to consume a
carbohydrate-electrolyte drink during and after a hunt. Performance is impaired
when canine athletes are dehydrated.
The kidney plays a pivotal and essential
role in maintaining hydration of the body, or body fluid homeostasis. Exercise
has large, indirect effects on acute kidney function via altered blood flow and
dehydration.
The clinical staff at the K9-Quencher Headquarters understands a
dog's physical needs, and has designed a dog drink formula suited specifically
for them. Research shows that dogs will drink more of a flavored beverage than
plain water.
K9-Quencher is the Sport Drink for Dogs! Dogs love the taste, so
they drink it even when they won't drink plain water. Water has no flavor, so
it's challenging for most active dogs to drink enough to stay well
hydrated.
