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.
