  • Space Requirements for Dogs Housed in Sled Dog Kennels
    Revision 4.1 - Adopted 15 June, 2020. 1 Introduction to the 4th Revision The Mush with P.R.I.D.E. Sled Dog Care Guidelines represent a standard of care that is consistent with the 5 Provisions of Animal Welfare paradigm, prevents unnecessary harm and promotes the welfare of the dogs to which they apply. Our recommendations have a general level of acceptance among knowledgeable practitioners and experts in the field. Strong preference is given to peer-reviewed scientific literature. Where scientific evidence is lacking we recommend practices that have robust experiential foundations, are based on logic and reason and are practical in the multiple-dog setting of a sled dog kennel. Since it's foundation in 1991 the role of Mush with P.R.I.D.E. has been defined by our name - to Provide Responsible Information on a Dog's Environment. Experience has shown that the Mush with P.R.I.D.E. Sled Dog Care Guidelines must be updated regularly to keep pace with advances in science and communications as well as the ever-changing social perceptions of the many dog-powered activities that enhance not just our own lives, but the lives of our dogs as well. The current Mush with P.R.I.D.E. Board of Directors strongly feel that it is our job to research and provide responsible information and evidence based recommendations that give mushers and kennel operators a range of options from which to choose. It is the job of the musher or kennel operator to use this information to prevent unnecessary harm and promote the welfare of your own dogs.

  • Organized Sports & Activities for Family Dogs

The broadcast media is just now recognizing what “dog people” already know: there are lots of fun activities around for dogs and their owners to enjoy together. And, with a little research, you and your canine companion can explore new activities throughout the Puget Sound. (Note: This listing is not intended to be complete. It just touches on some of the more common organized dog sports and activities. If you’re interested in something not referenced here (such as lure coursing, weight pulling, etc.) contact the author and she’ll attempt to help you find what you’re looking for!) • Conformation dog shows. Dozens of American Kennel Club (AKC) dog shows are held in this area every year, attracting thousands of dogs and their owners as they compete for breed championship points. Considered by some to be the “beauty contest” of the dog world, these events help recognize purebred dogs with the necessary physical and mental traits worthy of the title “Champion.” • Agility trials. Chances are you’ve seen this fun sport on TV. Dogs climbing, jumping, zipping and zooming over, under and through various obstacles. Agility is fun for all shapes and sizes of purebred as well as mixed- breed dogs, and there are competitions nearly every weekend within an hour or so drive from Seattle.

  • Dietary Tryptophan Requirements in Adult Dogs
    Dietary Tryptophan Requirements in Adult Dogs and How Optimization of the Tryptophan to Large Neutral Amino Acid Ratio Affects the Metabolism and Gut Health in Actively Training Sled Dogs. by James Russell Templeman A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Biosciences Guelph, Ontario, Canada © James R. Templeman, August 2020 ABSTRACT DIETARY TRYPTOPHAN REQUIREMENTS IN ADULT DOGS AND HOW OPTIMIZATION OF THE TRYPTOPHAN TO LARGE NEUTRAL AMINO ACID RATIO AFFECTS THE METABOLISM AND GUT HEALTH IN ACTIVELY TRAINING SLED DOGS James R. Templeman Advisor: University of Guelph, 2020 Dr. Anna-Kate Shoveller Exercise improves the health of dogs; although, extreme exertion experienced by sled dogs may lead to variable metabolic and gastrointestinal outcomes. Nutritional solutions can reduce the prevalence of these disturbances, but a deeper understanding of sled dog nutritional programs is warranted to ensure appropriate gaps in research are targeted. Supplementation of tryptophan, an indispensable amino acid for dogs, has been explored as a means to increase serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in central and enteric nervous system function; however, there are no empirical data to support current regulatory recommendations of dietary tryptophan for adult dogs. The objectives of this thesis were to 1) critically review aspects of sporting dog nutrition, methods of estimating amino acid requirements, and tryptophan metabolism, 2) evaluate current sled dog nutritional programs, 3) estimate tryptophan requirements in adult dogs, and 4) apply those estimations via optimizing the dietary tryptophan to large neutral amino acid ratio for actively training sled dogs, with the goal of improving metabolic and gastrointestinal outcomes.
