A Summer Health Tip from your ZoomDog Veterinarian

When you are hunting with a fast working dog, water loss can occur at a fairly rapid rate especially with low environmental humidity and high temperature.  Providing adequate water breaks on an hourly basis can keep a working dog in the field and on birds for a longer period of time.  Dogs do not necessarily require instant energy with dissolvable sugar tablets, but do require pure hydration with water only.  Unless there is significant vomiting or diarrhea, electrolytes are also not needed.  If your dog is panting excessively and the tongue and gums do not appear to be moist, then rest is required as well as water.

 

 

ZoomDog® is designed to meet the unique needs of upland bird and waterfowl dogs. We hunt. We work with dogs. We know their needs.

 

Your gun dog has special needs that other dogs don’t have. You need products designed for these special needs, not just any dog. We realize the special bond you have to your dog. They are active for longer periods of time, under often harsh conditions. They are in and out of kennels, constantly moving, sitting patiently in cold conditions, working through heavy cover, in and out of cold and other situations that most dogs never experience.

 

They need special ingredients to keep them strong, support their endurance and keep their joints flexible, allowing them to hunt for extended years. All that work, wear and tear on their joints means they need special nutrients to keep them hunting stronger and longer. Their skin and coats need to be healthy to keep them warm and healthy throughout hunting season, and year round. Your gun dog isn’t just a good hunting buddy, they are also an investment in time, money and affection. Keep them in peak condition and you’ll enjoy many more years of successful hunting with your special dog.
