Skin and Coat Sensitive Care Peanut Butter Supplement Soft Chews
Verified May 4, 2026
A daily soft-chew skin and coat supplement for adult dogs, made with fish oil and flaxseed as key sources of omega-3 fatty acids and linoleic acid, plus added zinc. The peanut butter flavor helps make it more palatable, while the formula avoids common protein allergens like beef, chicken, dairy, wheat, and soy. It’s intended to support dogs who need extra skin and coat nutritional support alongside a complete diet.
This is a well-formulated skin and coat supplement for adult dogs, especially for those who are sensitive to common animal proteins such as beef or chicken. It provides multiple omega-3 sources (fish oil, flaxseed) plus linoleic acid and zinc, all of which are important nutrients for skin barrier function and coat quality. As with any supplement, it should be used in addition to, not instead of, a complete and balanced dog food.

At a Glance
KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Uses fish oil and flaxseed to supply omega-3 fatty acids (including EPA, DHA, and ALA), which are key nutrients for skin and coat health.
- Includes linoleic acid (an omega-6) and zinc, both important for maintaining a healthy skin barrier and normal coat quality.
- Formulated to avoid many common food allergens (beef, dairy, wheat, lamb, egg, chicken, soy), which can be helpful for dogs with multiple protein sensitivities.
- Soft chew format with peanut butter flavor can make daily dosing easier for many dogs.
Considerations
- This is a calorie-containing supplement (about 22 kcal per chew), so portions of regular food may need slight adjustment for dogs prone to weight gain.
- Contains peanut butter, which is fine for most dogs but not appropriate if your dog has a known peanut allergy or sensitivity.
- Provides targeted nutrients but does not replace the need for a complete and balanced main diet, so overall skin and coat health will still depend heavily on the dog’s regular food.

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
Glycerol
Glycerol (glycerin) is used in pet foods primarily as a humectant and sweetening agent to retain moisture, improve texture and palatability, and serve as a solvent or carrier in wet foods, treats, and liquid supplements. It provides a modest source of metabolizable energy for dogs and cats, but in large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset and may affect blood glucose, so products intended for diabetic pets or sensitive animals should be used with caution.
03
Modified Food Starch
Modified food starch is commonly used in pet foods as a thickener, binder and texture stabilizer (in canned, pouch, and some dry formulas), supplying a digestible carbohydrate that helps maintain consistency and palatability. It provides calories but little protein or micronutrients, so it can contribute to excess energy intake in overweight or diabetic pets and may be a concern for animals with grain or starch sensitivities; modified forms are generally regarded as safe, though some owners prefer less-processed ingredients.
04
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.
05
Flaxseed
Flaxseed is used in pet foods as a plant-based source of alpha‑linolenic acid (ALA) omega‑3, soluble and insoluble fiber, and modest protein, often added to support skin and coat condition, digestive health, and kibble texture; ground seed or flaxseed oil is more digestible than whole seed. Dogs can partially convert ALA to long‑chain EPA/DHA but cats convert ALA poorly and therefore still need marine sources for essential DHA/EPA; flax is calorie‑dense, prone to oxidation if not stabilized, and contains lignans (phytoestrogens) and trace cyanogenic compounds, so it should be processed and used in moderation.
