Another source of both Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids is green tripe, which runs 2.5-3% Omega-6 (Linoleic Acid) and about a tenth of that Omega-3 (Linolenic Acid), by weight. BTW, that's said to be the optimal ratio of the two for dogs, at least by the IAMs people.
Salmon oil is probably more convenient (although green tripe has lots of other good stuff in it), and it can't possibly smell as bad.
I use a product called Omegaderm. It's relatively cheap and comes in liquid which is nice for those dogs who seem to find a pill no matter how disguised. I bought the 32 oz bottle in July and am just now running out.
where do you guys purchase your supplements from? do they have to be gotten from on-line? they do not have them in petsmart or anyplace like that.and what about flaxseed oil?
My house is very dry as I heat with electric base board. To combat the skin issues with my dogs; I add corn oil to their food each day. Their coats shine like a diamond and their skin is free of flakey dander. No itching at my house. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Bounetteyvette, You can find most of the supplements at a pharmacy or health food store. I found salmon oil capsules at Walmart, of all places <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I think they have flaxseed oil as well.
