Hot weather and hydration:

 Sports drink for your dog? Yes!  Now we are into warm or hot weather training so keep some form of electrolyte replacement drink available.  We use Elements "R" (for Recovery) and it keeps our canine athletes properly hydrated during training and trialing in the heat.  We all try to include water in every hot weather training setup, but watch out for those smaller ponds that may not have a cold water in-source.  Warm water will not keep the dogs cool when they are exercising hard.
