    these are the general symptoms of lactic acid build up ....cramp ... muscle spasms anf general fatigue ... you will get these symptoms if your dog was doing anaerobic exercise (training without oxygen)... what i mean by that is sprinting or any rapid burst of hard exercise ... anaerobic exercises can't last long because oxygen is not used for energy and a by-product lactic acid is produced.... this is different to aerobic exercise such as long runs where you are constantly taking on a regular controled amount of oxygen to fuel your body ......... i believe that number of factors con

    i dont think there is any vitamin E in butter ??? and if there is it will be a very small amount and wouldnt be worth using when you look at all the bad fats the dog would be getting by feeding it butter ... if you want to add vit E the dogs diet then use wheat germ oil ... as for the fatty acids the dog will get plenty of that from the meat it is eating ........

Add lots of green leafy vegetables) Courgettes- Romaine (COS) Lettuce - High nutritional value Ice Berg Lettuce - has no nutritional value but is OK to feed. You can use as a filler.

    the problem with giving a ferret to much room is that they can go a little feral on you and becoome a tad difficult to handle ... i have done this in the past as a youngster.... the best thing you can do for your ferret is get another one as they love company and are a much happier animal when they have another ferret to play with day in day out .........

    KAY never mind about silly bits of string and throwing dead rabbits around all you will end up with is a dog that thinks p[laying tug of war is fun and will bit down harder on his game to keep it in its mouth as you are forcing a retrieve which is never good .... get a rabbit skin and a sock fill the sock with some rags and something to add a bit of weight (some damp sand ) and wrap the skin aroud the sock ... now spend a day or 2 jsut teasing the dog with the skin and letting him mouth it when he gets to excited put it away ... stage 2 take the dog to somwhere where he cant get past you like

    yep and when you have assesed the dog and worked out what type of muscle structure it has you can then creat a programme to maximise its potential alongside its diet to reduce the lactic acid build up in the muscle you are creating or shaping .........

    thats where it whent ... i hope you followed the feeding regime rigorously taking particular note of the cheese and chutny lunch washed down with the cheapest cola you can buy followed by the enforced rest period of 18 hours .... this is the key to the excersise and if you deviated off it then i am afraid all your hard work was in vain ..... i look forward to your rippling body doing a few more turns on the shovel this year as the chalk and flint has broken many a tough guy up here ..............
