Hi all, Fizz was having Yumega oil on her food. After reading about salmon oil on the forum, I looked it up on other sites, saw that it would be more beneficial for her, not just for her coat and skin but for her joints too. She's been having it for roughly a couple of weeks. I have read on some sites though that if you give your dog salmon oil you also need to give them vitamin E. Does anyone know if it's true and why please? Thank you.

Hi Sarah, thank you for putting that link on. That is the farmed stuff that she's having though, so will be changing it. Lee

Hi Diane, the Wassen fish oil capsules are for humans aren't they, so really not sure. At the moment I'm giving Fizz salmon oil. I did try vitamin E but made her go to the toilet more. Fizz is due her booster next month, so I'm holding off giving it to her until I've asked the vet.

I did read on one website that it is okay to give vitamins/supplements meant for humans to dogs, but it's getting the dosage right. Still going to make sure with the vet first though.
