"Fish oil can reduce vitamin E levels. Researchers aren't sure whether fish oil keeps vitamin E from being absorbed from food or whether it causes the body to use up vitamin E faster than it should."
This goes for dogs as well as humans.
It doesn't always happen, but E is much safer to give "extra" of (for dogs; I'm not addressing human use here) than any of the other fat-soluble vitamins. IMO, adding natural E (d-alpha, not dl-alpha) with mixed tocopherols when you give oil supplements is a good idea.
In fact, I wouldn't give fish oil if I had no E to give along with it, and I consider fish oil to be pretty much "the" supplement.

Probiotics = good.
But it is the sudden extra fat that I was thinking of. A GI-sensitive dog often needs gradual additions of fat (like the fat that is peeled off when you peel off the chicken skin).
I received a PM yesterday that made it clear that this overview of RMBs as the base of the raw diet needs more exposure.
(The person PMing agreed; he hadn't seen this and he was basing his pup's diet on boneless beef with a very small amount of digestible bone as an afterthought.)
