High performance sport dogs are those bred and trained to compete in various athletic events. Events include but are not limited to, agility trials, hunting and racing. These events are physically and metabolically demanding.[1] As a result, canine athletes require specialized nutrition in order to perform at high levels during events and for maintenance and recovery.[2] The main nutritional concern for sport dogs is adequate energy.[2] A well-balanced diet, containing the appropriate amounts of protein, fat, carbohydrate, fiber and micronutrients is essential to meet these energy requirements.[1]
