gut or internal fat cut + foam from mouth

hi

got a few diferent questions

was reading Crenshaw keep,

how do i cut the internal fat?
how i see when it's well done (or not)?
any advices/tips ?

long time ago i seen the millmaker dvd and he talked about foam coming from the mouth at the start of keep and when there is no more foam after dog was in good shape.
due to poor audio i did not understood it well

anyone can tell me about it?

thank's in advanced

 

When the dog is running white foam will come from his mouth, that's how you know you are getting somewhere. I wouldn't say when there is no more white foam the dogs in good shape but def on their way

 

The foam isn't the guy fat being removed. Wives tale, foam just means the dogs working his ass off.

 

What abt the internal fat cut?

 

Naustroms

sorry, i guess that i did not expressed myself right, did meant foam and gut fat as being 2 different questions

 

THANK YOU! I hear that same stupid theory all the time and just lmao @ it. I can have Bronson @ 3% or less and he still has the foam every single time he works lol.

 

never really liked to see foam coming from a dog

 

I think that people need to be a little more specific about increase and decrease of food when responding. Protien cannot be digested properly without fat and vise versa, if you decrease the fat intake and increase the protien intake the dog will naturally burn more fat. Internal fat is the last of the body fat to be digested as it is a natural function for dogs to store fat next to their organs and heart as a reserve in the event of starvation, this will also help keep them warm and sustain their bodies during the winter months. There is a fine line between healthy fat cutting and unhealthy fat cutting as to much protien can cause many different problems as well. IMO the process should be a slow gradual cut appose to some of the old time methods where people try to drop mass amounts of fat in a short period of time. This is a complex thread and would require hours of discussion to be effective as well as a good understanding of the particular dog and its conditions etc...

LOL well then you've obviously never worked a dog very hard then

 

thank you all for your inputs

NGK, please do not hesitate too develop this interesting thread

your right boogiemanblood i try to never overwork my dogs, theres an old greyhound saying dont run the guts out of your dog before the race, but what ever works for you good luck with your dogs

 

Theirs n old sang, don't fix it if it ain't broke

 

LOL I guess I could be putting slobber and foam in the same category

 

Foam in many cases indicates an allergy of some sort.

The more stress you put on your dog the more his sympathetic nervous system which leads to less water in the saliva which leaves for example amylase which breaksdown starch and sugar. Amylase is like syrup and makes the dogs saliva thicker. (REPRINT.)

 

Foam in many cases indicates an allergy of some sort.

What's a good way to treat an allergy n what's are some good ways to tell if yr dogs having allergies? Will one med work on multiple allergys like benedryl works for us?
