Skin And Coat Chicken Soft Chew Supplement

Verified Jul 28, 2026

Dog · Supplement Adult All Breed Sizes

A daily soft chew skin and coat supplement for adult dogs, using chicken as the main flavor. It supplies omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids from fish oil and flaxseed, plus added zinc, to nutritionally support skin and coat health. Each chew is relatively calorie-dense, so it should be counted as part of your dog’s daily treats.

KibbleLab Score
9.3 out of 10

Top Pick

This is a targeted skin and coat supplement rather than a complete diet, designed for adult dogs who could use extra fatty acids and zinc on top of their regular food. The formula provides multiple omega-3 sources (EPA, DHA, ALA) and linoleic acid, which can help support skin and coat from a nutritional standpoint. It’s best suited for dogs already on a balanced diet whose owners want an easy, treat-like way to add these nutrients.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Provides multiple omega-3 sources, including EPA, DHA, and ALA, along with omega-6 linoleic acid for skin and coat support.
  • Includes added zinc, an essential mineral that plays a role in maintaining healthy skin and coat.
  • Soft chew format is convenient for daily dosing and is usually easy for most dogs to eat.
  • Backed by a well-known brand with a clear focus on combining fish oil and flaxseed for fatty acid supplementation.

Considerations

  • This is a supplement, not a complete and balanced food, so it must be fed alongside a nutritionally complete diet.
  • Dogs with chicken or wheat allergies or sensitivities should avoid this product, as it contains both ingredients.
  • At about 20 kcal per chew, the calories can add up for small or inactive dogs and should be counted toward daily treats.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Millet Flour
Millet flour is a gluten‑free cereal ingredient used in pet foods primarily as a carbohydrate source and binder, contributing energy, texture in dry kibbles, modest plant protein, and dietary fiber. It provides B‑vitamins, manganese, and fiber that can support canine digestion, but because cats are obligate carnivores their carbohydrate intake should be limited; millet is generally well tolerated when cooked/processed for digestibility, though like other grains it contains phytic acid that can reduce mineral availability if not properly handled and should be balanced within a complete diet.
02
Vegetable Glycerin
Vegetable glycerin is a plant-derived humectant and sweet-tasting solvent commonly used in pet foods and treats to retain moisture, improve texture, dissolve flavorings or vitamins, and enhance palatability. It provides usable calories, is generally regarded as safe for dogs and cats in typical amounts, but excessive intake can cause digestive upset and may be a consideration for diabetic pets or those needing calorie-restricted diets.
03
Wheat Flour
Wheat flour is commonly used in pet foods as a carbohydrate source, binder and extender that provides digestible energy, some protein (including gluten), and small amounts of fiber and B‑vitamins when enriched. While generally safe and economical for many dogs, it is not a required ingredient for obligate carnivores like cats, can contribute to excess calories or a high glycemic load, and can trigger food allergies or gluten sensitivity in susceptible pets, so animals with known wheat sensitivities or weight concerns may benefit from wheat‑free formulations.
04
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

05
Fish Oil
Fish oil is commonly added to pet foods as a concentrated source of healthy fats—primarily the omega‑3 long‑chain fatty acids EPA and DHA—to boost energy density and palatability. EPA and DHA support skin and coat condition, joint and cardiovascular health, and brain development (cats require preformed DHA), but fish oil is calorie‑dense, can oxidize if not properly stabilized, may contain environmental contaminants unless purified, and high doses can cause gastrointestinal upset or affect blood clotting, so product quality and appropriate dosing are important.
