Strong Choice
This supplement is designed for very active or working dogs that need help replacing fluids, electrolytes, and some nutrients during or after hard exercise. It combines easily absorbed carbohydrates, a concentrated protein source, and high sodium and other electrolytes. It’s best suited for performance dogs under guidance from your veterinarian or an experienced trainer, not for casual everyday use in typical pet dogs.

Strengths
- Includes bovine plasma as a rich, highly digestible protein source to support recovery needs.
- Provides a mix of dextrose and maltodextrin, which can give quick energy during or after intense exercise.
- Contains high levels of sodium, chloride, and potassium to help replace electrolytes lost with heavy panting and work.
- Added B vitamins and vitamin E can help support normal metabolism during periods of high activity.
Considerations
- This is not a complete and balanced diet, so it should only be given alongside a regular dog food.
- The sodium level is quite high, so it may not be appropriate for dogs with heart, kidney, or blood pressure concerns.
- Bovine plasma is an animal-based ingredient, so it won’t be suitable for dogs with known beef allergies.
- Because it’s calorie-dense per scoop, portions should be measured so you don’t accidentally overfeed calories.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Bovine Plasma
Bovine plasma is a spray-dried blood-derived protein commonly used in pet foods as a highly digestible protein source, palatability enhancer and functional ingredient to bind water and improve texture. It provides concentrated amino acids and bioactive proteins (including immunoglobulins) that may support gut health in some contexts, but can be problematic for animals with beef sensitivities and may concern owners who avoid blood-derived ingredients, so source and processing controls are important for safety.
02
Dextrose
Dextrose (a form of glucose) is a simple sugar commonly used in pet foods as a sweetener, humectant, and quick energy source to improve palatability and texture. It provides readily available calories but can contribute to weight gain and rapid blood‑glucose spikes, so its inclusion should be limited in diets for obese or diabetic dogs and cats and owners should monitor added sugars in treats.
03
Maltodextrin
Maltodextrin is a processed, rapidly digestible carbohydrate commonly used in pet foods and treats as a binder, bulking agent, texture improver and flavor carrier. It supplies easily metabolized calories but offers little in the way of vitamins, minerals or fiber, so excessive inclusion can contribute to weight gain or blood sugar spikes in obese or diabetic dogs and cats, and it may cause digestive upset in sensitive pets; sources can include corn, wheat, potato or rice, so check for potential allergen concerns.
04
Sodium Citrate
Sodium citrate is a sodium salt of citric acid commonly used in pet foods as a buffering agent, pH regulator and chelating agent to stabilize texture and flavor, help control acidity, and inhibit mineral-driven spoilage. It supports product quality but contributes sodium to the diet, so intake should be monitored in pets on sodium-restricted or heart/kidney-sensitive diets and may cause gastrointestinal upset in very sensitive animals.
05
L-Lysine
L‑Lysine is the biologically active form of the essential amino acid lysine used in pet foods and supplements to support protein synthesis, muscle maintenance, immune function and tissue repair, and is particularly useful when diets are low in animal protein or for growing, pregnant or convalescent animals. While generally safe when used to correct a deficiency, excessive supplementation can cause amino‑acid imbalances (notably affecting arginine in cats) and clinical benefits for conditions like feline herpesvirus are mixed, so dosing should follow a veterinarian’s guidance.
