Have a dog which is cramping...

Hi Jeff, your dog could have a liver and/or kidney infection. I was treatng mine for dehydration n I believe I was overloading with electrolytes. I had to flush the kidneys n it improved the dog but the symptoms persisted so I did a blood test n white cell reading was low.

Hi Kate - depends on how you look at rules versus implementation I suppose?

Any buffering agent is prohibited per the rules.

Does Bicarb Soda swab - well yet to see a positive anywhere in any jurisdiction for swab results for dogs (versus horses).

That said - never ever saw a Tobacco (nicotine) positive until this year. So in theory why risk it? In reality - no examples of a BiCarb positive anywhere in dogs.

Does it help aside from cramping their guts during a hard run - try it (maybe in an unofficial trial) and find out if it helps your dogs in any beneficial way.

Post race BiCarb has its place.
