| Salmon Oil from AMD We got some 100% Salmon Oil from AMD www.westbrookdog.com Mimi & Momo LOVE it! I used to mix chicken w/their kibble, but was afraid of giving them too much protein. I just mix a pump w/their kibble for breakfast mixed w/some diced green beans. I was kinda concerned of the smell...It doesn't smell bad or fishy at all. It's only been about 2 weeks so I can't really tell if their coat is benefiting from the 'dog nip' (says on the bottle)...but Momo's cottony coat seems to be softer. Don't know if that's from weekly baths w/MinkSheen (another product AMD sells that we absolutely LOVE) or the Omegas & Fatty Acids. Thanks AMD! We LOVE your bully sticks too.

| Yes, I have been using 3v caps fish oil and can see a difference in their coats. Heck, I started taking fish oil too. |

| Hi Sasha's mommy! I just squirt one pump on top of their kibble & mix it up a little. They really like it. Momo eats anything I give him, but Mimi is very finicky...she loves it. I like the one AMD sells because there's no strong fishy odor.

| I don't have a set time I put Evo down for Addie. I just keep her food bowl full and let her eat whenever she feels like it. Would this work for that?

I have noticed Mimi & Momo's change in their hair. I always have to give them a bath once a week or they look & feel 'dirty'...even if they don't really go outside unless we're walking. It's past their bath time & they're still soft! I think I can bathe them every 2 weeks now.

| oops, I should just multi-quote! How wonderful to take in a Yorkie! The oil will definitely help w/dry skin & coat. My babies always had dry hair & I over-condition them & even wrap them in a warm towel (even tho MinkSheen already has a conditioner in it). They're soo soft now...I sound like a commercial! lol

| update on availability I noticed that the 100% Salmon oil was out of stock at westbrook dog, so I emailed Alyssa & she wrote back: Hi Jenny, I will be getting more salmon oil in, but not the Dog Nip brand. I will be carrying the Ark Naturals Royal Coat Express, which has Vitamin E added since the body uses vitamin E to absorb/use the salmon oil. Thanks, Alyssa Westbrook Dog westbrookdog@westbrookdog.com www.WestbrookDog.com Thank you for your business! Thanks Alyssa! We'll be ordering the Ark Naturals Royal Coat Express when you get it in.

| Hi Jenny!! Thank you for this thread! Like you posted above, I decided to start carrying Ark Naturals' Salmon Oil Called Royal Coat Express. I started supplementing with it, and LOVE IT! The 100% Salmon oil was good as well, but the Royal Coat has the Vitamin E added, so you don't need a further supplement for Vit E. I will be getting them in next week. |

| Is the Ark Naturals a liquid or capsule? I currently use the Dog Nip brand and find it a little yucky. When we were kids, mom used to make us take cod liver oil, cause she heard it would help us have less colds in the winter. To this day, anything fishy makes me gag!! |

| It works great! Especially for those pups that have the "puppy dander" It clears it up and puts a shine in their coat! |
