Many aspiring dog breeders and handlers are hoping that this is the year that their dog's bodies will transform into the bodies of their dreams. Unfortunately, dog breeder's love of hype puts them at the mercy of dog food, canine supplements and snake oil manufacturers and vulnerable to their marketing ploys. Professional athletes get it, trainers get it, veterinarians are now beginning to see the light but unfortunately a lot of dog owners don't. Either they don't care or they don't keep up on research. Fledgling breeders may not know as much as veteran breeders but they inevitably know that supplementation plays a role in their future dog campaigning success.

The hemoglobin that carries oxygen in the blood is even protein. The structure of your dog's genes and brain cells is totally protein. Every single bodily function, from an eye blink to the creation of new muscle is controlled by thousands of different enzymes and enzymes are proteins! What it boils down to is if you want to breed or compete at high level, you need to get your dog's protein tion right and get it right ALL OF THE TIME! You can make big mistakes with the fuel foods, i.e. carbs, s,) but the mistakes you make with your dog's protein will eventually haunt you. What ents are responsible for the majority of repairs when there is an injury? Yep protein. Protein structures are not there forever though. They die. About every six months, your dog's entire musculature is replaced. The body he or she has today was built from what they have eaten over the last six months. Ever wonder why your dog blows coat when starting them on a new food or sup
