I haven't used salmon oil, but I have used coconut oil, both as a dietary supplement and as a skin treatment. I give him about 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil once a day, and I use a little dab of it as a leave in conditioner after his bath. I just rub it into his skin as I'm combing him out. It really helped and smells a lot better than fish oil!
