Helmut Peer:
We switched from 5 kg Power+ 8 kg beef (10-15 % fat) + 100g egg powder for 22 dogs once a day to 1/2 kg beef for all dogs soup (given 250g at 9 am and 250g at 4 pm) and 400g-500g Ultra per dog, 200g morning, 300g afternoon. In the first 3 weeks the dogs lost little weight every day and had more stool. The weight lost was about 1- 1 1/2 kg. This was October, temperature 0 - 15°C, training 5 - 12 km every other day. 2 weeks after the beginning of the switch we added 1 1/2 kg more beef per day (now 1 kg beef morning, 1 kg afternoon), one week later the weight became stable and after 5 weeks (after the beginning) they had their original weight and the stool was half of the beginning, little less than with beef and Power. The stool was all the time good, not loose, even with stress. After 3 more weeks we reduced the beef to 1 kg per day. Till this time we fed after the training. With the switch to snow training we fed at 8 am and trained 1 1/2 hours later, with no problem. The dogs lost no power during the runs
