Unless they're hurt just feed them a hi-protein dog food and let them REST for a few days.

Meat cooked or raw works best for me. If you feed it straight though they won't get run down and will have more endurance. I BBQ all of it for them because I have a few that don't like it raw but they all like it cooked. Pork, chicken or beef it's all better than dog food. Bone meal and meat scraps or older meat from a butcher shop. I get mine for free :wink:

I used to cook bear meat(Alaska) and feed it to my dog team along with rice or cornmeal.
Lots of fat and plenty of protien.

Dehydration probably has more to do with it. I can't "make" my dogs drink water when I know they should be drinking it. But I found I can trick them in to drinking if I put a little flavor in the water like a bit of gatorade, juice, or milk, they think it is a treat and drink it up. I only do this if they are noticeably run down and showing signs of dehydration.
