The Original Effervescent Electrolyte Sports Drink for Dogs. Rehydrate
is the First effervescent rehydration supplement for dogs designed to
replenish lost electrolytes and spent energy. To be given before,
during and after workouts, hard play or any form of exercise or
vigorous activity. Rehydrate is a more effective hydration system than
drinking just plain water. Also included are vitamin C and other
antioxidant minerals geared to promote general wellness. Tube of 10
tablets (10 16oz. serv.)
REHYDRATE was developed in conjunction with a doctor of
veterinary medicine who specializes in animal nutrition at a
leading university in the United States.
REHYDRATE is designed to give canines a more effective hydration system
than drinking plain water. The effervescent tablet that dissolves in water is
formulated to replenish any lost electrolytes (i.e. sodium, chloride, potassium, etc.)
due to aerobic activity.
Also included are Vitamin C and other antioxidant minerals
geared to promote general wellness. Each tablet is also flavored to enhance the
palatability to promote optimum hydration and water intake.
During prolonged exercise, humans that do not hydrate will experience increased
heart rate, increased core body temperature and a reduced sweat rate. This is
caused by dehydration and the body attempts to retain all available fluid without
any additional way to cool down.
Dogs on the other hand do NOT sweat as profusely as humans do; they rely on
their tongue and the pads on their feet to regulate and dispel heat.
In this regard, regulation of fluid levels becomes more important to control
heart rate and core body temperature. By helping to maintain normal heart and
temperature conditions, the animal is less likely to suffer from the fatigue
associated with exercise.
