I hadn't thought about the pups going fishin' lol...But that sure makes sense...I don't feed mine fish, because of the mercury/cadmium/lead, etc...I figured beef/chicken/turkey/venison/rabbit/bison was a broad enough spectrum...Perhaps the person in this thread is concerned w/omega 3 fatty acids...I believe you can give your pup about 1/4 tsp. of fish oil, if you want to...I, actually, buy mercury free salmon, from Vital Choice, and when I have it (once or twice a week) I give my pups 1/2 tsp. each...Omg'sh do they ever love it...And, I figure they're getting a nice dose of omega 3's
