Nutritional Needs of Dock Diving Dogs

For fun or for sport, dock diving can be a great outlet for an active dog. Proper nutrition can mean the difference between timid jumps and some serious air. Eukanuba™ Premium Performance 21/13 Sprint is designed to help support diving dogs’ unique physical needs.

Active joints can benefit from glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate and EPA

Glucosamine, chondroitin and EPA support healthy joints.

Instant speed and power require carbohydrates for peak performance

Ready, set, jump! For short and intense anaerobic efforts, dogs’ bodies rely mainly on carbohydrates for fuel. When carbohydrates are digested, they’re converted into glucose that is used for energy. Excess energy is stored as glycogen and can be rapidly mobilized to power work.

Focus on trainer commands requires nutrients that support healthy brain function

Staying alert and focused is necessary for learning a sport like dock diving, especially when pool time is limited. DHA and antioxidants may help your dogs’ cognitive function, which can impact learning.
