Why Choose Recharge?
It is common for dogs to lose large amounts of fluids and electrolytes during travelling and other stressful situations such as competition, racing and during hot weather from excessive panting. Unless these losses are rapidly replaced, dehydration, muscle cramping, loss of performance and nervousness can occur.
Recharge for Dogs is great for use during periods of hot weather, after exercise and during travel. Recharge aids in restoring fluid and electrolytes and aids in rapid recovery from fatigue and dehydration.
Recharge is very easy to use. Simply add to cool, clean drinking water. There is no need to wait until the dog has consumed a meal. It comes in a handy portable pack to administer at events and during travel.

Frequently Asked Questions
RECHARGE can be administered over the tongue but when doing so do not exceed 10mL volume at a single dose and always provide fresh, clean drinking water or milky water for the greyhound to drink to replenish fluids. RECHARGE will increase the thirst response and fluid must be available immediately after dosage.
The formulation is specifically matched to the needs of the racing greyhound, containing a high potassium to sodium ratio, citrate salt as a buffering agent and glucose to enhance rapid uptake of electrolytes and restore vitality. It is a different formulation to that contained in RECHARGE for Horses, as that formulation is designed to rapidly replace sweat loss after exercise in horses. Both products are totally different to the high sodium, salty tasting sports drinks available for human athletes and sports persons. These are not suited to racing greyhounds (or horses).
