DOGGYWOOD PITBULL KENNELS

FINKLE WINKLE'S KEEP

DURING THE YEARS INVOLVED IN THIS GREAT BREED I WORKED MANY TIMES A DOG TO HIS TRUE WEIGHT AND BEST SHAPE POSSIBLE, AND I MADE MANY MISTAKES AS WELL, BUT I GUESS, WITH THE MISTAKES IN MIND, THE KEEP WHICH I'LL SHARE WITH YOU'LL, IS A PROVEN ONE, IN THE BEST SENSE OF THE WORD, SINCE THIS SIMPLE KEEP DELIVERED ME, MANY A WINNER, WHOS NOT SELDOM, WINNING OVER THE OTHER ENTRY DUE TO THEIR BETTER SHAPE.

FIRST YOU MUST WORM YOUR DOG, 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE PRE-KEEP STARTS, CLIP HIS TOENAILS AND GIVE HIM A WARM BATH AND WASH HIM GOOD WITH JODIUM-SCRUB.

GO TO THE VET AND LETS CHECK THE DOG OUT, LIVER / KIDNEYS / BLOOD / STOOL,
LETS CHECK IT OUT GOOD, IF THE DOG IS HEALTHY, THE GREEN LIGHT IS ON,
IT'S TIME TO CONDITION YOUR DOG NOW.

CHANGE HIS DAILY FEED TO THE USE OF A DRY-FOOD, SPECIAL MADE FOR THE NEEDS OF CANINE SPORTING ANIMALS, I MYSELF, USE EUKANUBA PREMINIUM, WORKS GOOD FOR MY DOGS. GIVE THE DOG, EXCEPT SHORTLY AFTER HIS DAILY WORKOUT,
ALL THE FRESH WATER HE'LL DRINK, DAY AND NIGHT.

PRE-KEEP - SO SIMPLE, 6 TIMES A WEEK
1ST WEEK

* 1 HOUR HANDWALKING, ON A LONG LEASH, IN A GOOD HARNESS,
WALK ON DIFFERENT TYPES OF SOIL, GRASS, DIRT ROADS, HILLS.
AFTER EVERY WORKOUT,
* A 20 MINUTES RUBDOWN,
* FEED AND WATERING AFTER THE RUBDOWN AND
* REST THE DOG, YES THAT'S ALL.

* GIVE HIM ONE DAY OF NO WORK AT ALL, AND DON'T RUB HIM AS WELL,
ON SUCH A REST DAY, YOU'LL ADD SOME LESS FOOD TO HIS FEED PAN.

2ND WEEK

SAME O SAM O, ONLY 1 1/2 HOURS OF WALKING NOW, THAT'S ALL.

NOW THE DOG IS USED ON SOME WORK, WATCH HIM CLOSELY DURING THE WHOLE PROGRESS, IF HE'S LOOKING SORE, TIRED, ETC., DON'T HESISTATE TO REST HIM AN EXTRA DAY.

WE GONNA START NOW WITH 2 WEEKS OF BUILDING UP THE DOG,
TO MAKE HIM READY TO STAND THE PRESSURE AND STRESS,
