Yes, human Vitamin E.
Did you read page 1 of this thread? It specifies the type. (See my post just before yours.)
QUOTE: (Natural, or d-alpha, is what you want, IMO as the minimum requirement, in any brand, and, if possible, "with mixed tocopherols."
Don't forget fish oil.
When you have the dog's approximate weight, we can pinpoint dosages.

Also I've to add, about the vitamin E only.
VITA E+ 90 SOFTGELS
Amount per capsule:
Vitamin E 36 mg
Ingredients: wheat germ oil, gelatin, humectant: vegetable glycerol; vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopherol).
Based on this information of the product, how can I dose it ?
Thanks

Fabio, they have greyhound racing in Italy right?
find a greyhound supply shop, in my experience they have all the supplements usually at a fraction of the price of the pet supply shops and give better advice on dosages, toxicity, cleansing etc.
the only difference is the pet shops have fancy packaging and sell in smaller quantities, just profit maximisation.

"Im buying some stuffs from an online shop , sadly its hard to find in pet shop just vitamin E, "
IMHO, you don't need special pet (animal) supplements for Vitamin E, and IME they are less regulated and more expensive. Have you looked in regular vitamin or health-food shops for humans? Or vitamin supply sites online?
For me, no to this::
Ingredients: wheat germ oil, gelatin, humectant: vegetable glycerol; vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopherol).
You want d-alpha, not dl-alpha. All-natural E has d-alpha (and even better ones have "with mixed tocopherols").
For me, the basic requirement is d-alpha.
You are not going to need a bunch of supplements. For me, fish oil and E are THE supplements, possibly for a long long time.
And you will find a bigger E selection, probably at better prices and without stuff you do not want, from human suppliers.
JMO!

I love the whippets, great cross to put into hunting dogs with more bone and thicker hide.
