Salmon oil for dogs: the natural supplement that improves your dog's health

What is salmon oil and why is it so special?

Salmon oil is obtained directly from the fatty tissue of wild salmon and is a concentrated source of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA. Dogs cannot synthesize these fatty acids in sufficient quantities on their own.

Proven benefits of salmon oil in dogs

Numerous veterinary studies support its regular use:

• Coat and skin: reduces flaking, dryness and itching.
• Joints: EPA has an anti-inflammatory action that relieves stiffness and pain.
• Immune system: omega-3 modulates the inflammatory response.
• Cardiovascular health: improves lipid profiles.
• Cognitive development: DHA is key for the brain.
• Digestion: promotes the integrity of the intestinal mucosa.

Which dogs benefit the most?

Although any dog can benefit from salmon oil, there are profiles where the impact is especially visible:

• Dogs with dry skin, dandruff or recurrent itching.
• Double-coated breeds with dull coats.
• Older dogs with joint problems.
• Very active dogs.
• Puppies in full neurological development.
• Animals with food allergies.

How and how much to give

The simplest way is to add the oil directly on the dry or wet feed, once a day. The indicative dose is usually 1 ml per 4-5 kg of body weight.
