Good Man 196 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 too much sodium and potasium in that, meant for horses not dogs, get a dog electrolyte, like recharge. horses swet from skin, dogs from feet, will harm your dog in the long run if you use horse stuff!!

neil cooney 10,416 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Look at the ingrediants and the % of each ingrediant. Liquid life aid thats used for calves with scour is the same as recharge but 1/4 the price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Liquid life aid is poison to dogs in the long run lad, no joke, far better and safer to give the recharge, or other similar running dog electrolyte. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neil cooney 10,416 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 I'd love to know how as the ingrediants are the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Good Man 196 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) I'd love to know how as the ingrediants are the same. the ingredients in LLA, are more stronger. Their is a lot of sodium in LLA, dogs sweat from their feet, cattle, pigs horses ect, sweat from their skin, works differently for them, then it does for dogs, trust me i know, as a friends dog nearly died from using this stuff and the greyhound vet said to keep away from it and use recharge or another running dog electrolyte when needed.

sandymere 8,263 Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 If its for horses it's designed to replace the salts lost in sweat so unless your dog is sweating I'd give it a miss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
