A special story

It is well-known intestinal flora is hugely important for the dog's health and above all in case of “performance” dogs!

Petter Karlsson,from Slussfors, is a very well-known musher with a respectable track record:

  • Swedish Champion in Sprint (2003)
  • European Champion in Mid Distance (2005)
  • 2 x Swedish Champion in Mid distance (2006 / 2007)
  • Winner of La Grande Odyssée (2008)
  • Winner of Femundløpet 600 (2017)
  • 3 x Winner of Finnmarksløpet 1200 (2016 /2018 /2023)
  • World Champion in Long distance (2023)

 

We met him to get his opinion.

First of all, he strongly believes that a balanced intestinal flora in the race dogs in his winning team contributed to victory.

He told us that he had problems with diarrhea and dogs that got sick to their stomachs in the middle of the race, and it has been quite a serious problem…

Petter is convinced the gut might be one of the most vulnerable parts of a long-distance race dogs, and that a healthy and balanced gastrointestinal tract is important for everything from nutrient absorption to immune defense, mood and finally performance.

During Finnmarksløpet in 2022, for the first time, he tested Dia-tab® and Enteromicro® complex by DRN

He told us he had already given other products, but with these two quickly noticed improved stools and a clearly better general condition.

Furthermore, “refreshing” intestinal flora of the dogs in the team, was able to save a finish, rather than having to scratch from the race.

He also experienced that the dogs worked up an appetite, became hydrated and more agile.

The consequence was increased energy and a greater desire to run.

After the 2022 race, Petter spoke with Henry Coronica at Nextmune to get detailed information about both Dia-tab® and Enteromicro® complex and so he decided to give the supplement also as a preventive measure. So that the dogs would have optimal gut health and protection before a competition.

Thanks to this he evaluated preventing with Enteromicro® complex made the intestines of the dogs on the winning team stronger, without a doubt.

They received the supplement preventively for several weeks before the competition, and in addition maintenance doses during the race.

He told us that this year's world champions is the best dog team he has ever competed with!

All the dogs were healthy. They ate well and had an extreme energy level that lasted for 1,200 kilometers!

Petter underlines us is convinced Dia-tab® and Enteromicro® complex contributed to victory, due to the fact he is more than sure preventive use of the supplement Enteromicro® complex ahead of the competition has been a competitive advantage!

Based on his experience, he reiterates the concept that healthy intestinal flora is essential for the dog's health.

Petter has closed his meeting with us telling since he desires to win Finnmarksløpet in 2024, he will repeat the success with Enteromicro® complex and Dia-tab®without a doubt!
