You Think You’re Doing Everything Right for Your Dog, But Are You Missing This One Critical Piece?

Every dog owner knows the look, the wagging tail, the wet nose nudging your hand, the loyal eyes full of unspoken love. Our dogs are family. What if, despite the best kibble, the most stimulating toys, and the perfect morning walk, you were unknowingly neglecting the single most vital component of their health?

Hydration.

It sounds simple, right? Water bowl full, check. But Dylan Jones, U.S. Air Force veteran and founder of LYX Hydration, wants you to know something startling: 100% of dogs studied start their day dehydrated.

Let that sink in.

Even the most pampered pooches. Even the ones with stainless steel fountains and filtered spring water. Dehydration doesn’t just mean a dry mouth; it affects energy, digestion, mobility, mood, and even lifespan.

And Dylan didn’t just read about it. He lived it.

From Combat Zones to Canine Wellness: How a Soldier’s Mission Became a Lifeline for Dogs

In the dusty heat of military operations in Asia and the Middle East, Dylan witnessed a bond few civilians truly understand: the unbreakable partnership between handler and military working dog. These four-legged heroes sniffed out explosives, tracked suspects, and saved lives under unimaginable stress, but what haunted Dylan long after the deployments was how their physical needs were overlooked, especially hydration. “We had electrolyte packets,” Dylan says. “They didn’t.”

When he returned home to Fort Worth, Texas, Dylan couldn’t shake the image of those loyal dogs, and all the pets here at home facing their silent battles: aging joints, picky appetites, hot summers, and stressful vet visits.

That’s when LYX Hydration was born.

What Is LYX Hydration? More Than a Supplement, It’s a Daily Ritual of Care

LYX Hydration (pronounced “licks”) is not your average pet product. It’s an essential hydration mix that turns water into wellness. Think real bone broth, chicken, or beef, plus coconut water, all in a shelf-stable powder stick you can take anywhere.

No artificial flavors. No fillers. No sugar. Just clean, vet-backed, delicious hydration your dog will literally beg for.

Every pouch delivers electrolytes, amino acids, and minerals to support:

• Organ function
• Joint mobility
• Immune defense
• Post-exercise recovery
• Hydration absorption

It’s wellness in a water bowl.

The Everyday Dogs LYX Was Made For

This isn’t just for military K9s or elite agility champs. This is for your dog.

The one who sleeps on your bed.

The one who whines when you grab your keys.

The one whose face has a few more gray hairs than last year.

Here’s where LYX changes the game:

1. The Picky Drinker

Does your dog ignore their water bowl unless they’re panting like a marathon runner? If they eat dry kibble or live in a high-stress home (hi, fireworks season), dehydration builds up silently. LYX turns hydration into a treat. One whiff of the bone broth aroma, and instantly, water is the reward.

2. The Summer Sun Chaser

In warm climates, or even during a backyard fetch session, dogs lose hydration fast through panting. Unlike us, they don’t sweat to cool down. That beach day or hike? It might be draining your dog more than you think.

LYX rapidly restores electrolytes, helping your pup bounce back before heat fatigue sets in.

3. The Golden Oldie

Senior dogs (7+ years) face wear and tear on joints, kidneys, and even cognition. Hydration helps all of it. Bone broth supports joint health, while coconut water aids in organ function. LYX gives aging dogs a little more pep, a little more ease, and a lot more comfort.

4. The Healing Warrior

Post-surgery? Upset stomach? Dental procedure? Dogs often refuse food and water when recovering. The familiar smell and taste of LYX encourage fluid intake and gently deliver nutrients that aid healing from the inside out.

5. The Adventure Dog

You wouldn’t hit the trails without a water bottle. Neither should your dog. LYX sticks are lightweight, portable, and pack easily in any backpack. Whether it’s a mountain trail or a dog park road trip, hydration shouldn’t be an afterthought.

6. The Nervous Traveler

Boarding. Vet visits. Moving homes. Travel is stressful and often leads to reduced drinking. But dogs recognize the comforting scent of LYX, helping them stay hydrated even in unfamiliar places.

Science Says: Hydration Isn’t Optional, It’s Foundational

Hydration isn’t just about quenching thirst. It’s about supporting every single cell in your dog’s body.

• Brain function? Needs water.
• Muscle recovery? Needs water.
• Joint lubrication? Needs water.
• Digestion, energy, healing? You guessed it, hydration.

What LYX delivers isn’t just moisture; it’s molecular-level care. Think of it as the wellness upgrade your dog didn’t even know they needed.

A Wellness Tip You Can Start Today: Hydrate Before the Heat Hits

Here’s a simple daily tip: Give your dog a serving of LYX first thing in the morning. Since dehydration peaks overnight, starting their day with bone broth-powered hydration gives them a head start on energy, digestion, and movement.

Bonus: They’ll love you for it.

Real Dogs, Real Results: The LYX Pack Speaks

“My senior Labrador drinks more now than he ever has. I’ve seen real improvement in his stiffness and energy.”  Amanda, CO

“Our vet said our pup was dehydrated after surgery. She wouldn’t eat or drink. LYX was the only thing she accepted, and it made all the difference.”  Kyle, TX

“I take LYX on every hike. My German Shepherd drinks more and tires less. It’s like hydration insurance.”  Tessa, CA

Not Just a Product, A Mission to Give Back

Here’s where LYX truly sets itself apart.

A portion of every purchase supports the Warrior Dog Foundation, an organization that rehabilitates and rehomes retired military and police K9s. Dogs who served bravely, but would otherwise face euthanasia.

These dogs gave everything. Dylan made sure they would be remembered, respected, and rewarded with the peaceful retirements they deserve.

When you buy LYX, you’re not just improving your own dog’s life. You’re rescuing and restoring those who served.

Imagine the Ripple Effect of a Simple Daily Change

You refill their water every day. What if adding one stick of LYX to that routine helped?

• Support long-term joint health.
• Improve energy and digestion.
• Boost recovery after stress or illness.
• Make hot days more bearable.
• Keep aging dogs comfortable and mobile.
• Save the lives of retired warrior dogs.

That’s not a supplement. That’s a lifeline.

Final Thought: Your Dog Gives You Everything, What Are You Giving Back?

With LYX, you’re not just offering water. You’re offering vitality, support, and love in liquid form.
