Top Pick
This is a well-formulated skin and coat supplement that delivers a nice mix of omega fatty acids from salmon, fish oil, and flaxseed, along with supportive vitamins and minerals. The chew format is convenient and the guaranteed amounts of EPA, DHA, and key micronutrients are clearly listed, which is helpful. It’s a solid option for dogs who are already on a complete diet but could benefit from extra omega fats for coat quality or mild skin issues, as long as they tolerate fish and grains like oats and rice.

Strengths
- Multiple omega-3 sources (salmon, fish oil, flaxseed) plus omega-6 and omega-9, with specified amounts of EPA and DHA per chew, which are key for skin and coat support.
- Includes antioxidant vitamins C and E, zinc, and biotin, all of which play roles in skin barrier health and immune function.
- Uses relatively simple, familiar carbohydrate bases (oat flour, rice flour) that are generally well tolerated by most dogs.
- Soft chew format and preserved with mixed tocopherols and rosemary extract, which many dogs find palatable and easy to take daily.
Considerations
- Not suitable for dogs with fish or salmon allergies, since salmon and fish oil are primary active ingredients.
- Contains grains (oat flour, rice flour), which are fine for most dogs but may be an issue for those on a strict grain-free prescription plan for medical reasons.
- This is a supplement, not a complete and balanced diet, so it should only be used alongside a nutritionally complete dog food and not as a primary food source.
- Palm fruit oil is included as a fat source; while safe in typical supplement amounts, very fat-sensitive dogs or those with a history of pancreatitis may need any added fats introduced cautiously.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.

02
Oat Flour
Oat flour is used in pet food mainly as a carbohydrate source and binder that contributes soluble fiber (including beta‑glucans), modest protein, and B vitamins and minerals. It can help support digestive health and stool quality in dogs and is generally safe for cats in small amounts, but it is calorie‑dense so shouldn’t dominate diets for obligate carnivores and pets with grain sensitivities should be monitored for rare oat allergy or cross‑contamination with gluten‑containing grains.
03
Palm Fruit Oil
Palm fruit oil is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a concentrated fat source to boost energy density, improve palatability, and help with kibble texture and coating. It provides calories and fat‑soluble antioxidants (tocopherols/tocotrienols and, in red palm oil, carotenoids), but is high in saturated fat so should be used in moderation—especially for overweight pets or those prone to pancreatitis—and consumers may wish to look for products that use sustainably sourced palm oil.
04
Rice Flour
Rice flour is a finely milled carbohydrate ingredient commonly used in pet foods as a digestible energy source and as a binder or thickener in kibble, treats, and wet food formulations. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and cats and low in fat, but offers limited protein and essential amino acids (so it should complement animal protein sources), can increase dietary glycemic load which may be relevant for diabetic or weight‑management pets, and may carry low levels of inorganic arsenic depending on sourcing and processing.
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.
