He's been eating premade raw food for the last year (& the year b4 that on & off) & his hair has gotten so much...silkier! Yes, I can't believe it. He hardly gets any tangles. His hair is still soft & fluffy, but somehow it's much healthier looking. I think it has to do w/the fat content in raw food, they use it for energy. It's also got all the essential amino acids.
Maybe supplementing w/a good omega3 will help. A member here (TY Cathy!) suggested unsalted sardines in spring water from trader joes. It's paked w/omega 3's. They LOVE it! I also give them BEAMS from the honest kitchen to chew on b4 bath time. It's dehydrated cat fish skins. PolkaDog also makes a dehydrated fish skin chew made out of Cod. |
I tried to feed him premade raw, he just doesn't like it as much as his kibble. I give him wellness small bite puppy. He also gets a squirt of salmon oil on his food daily, which he loves. I leave the raw for him at night, sometimes he will eat it, most times not. But, it is so dry in our house (even with the humidifier on high), that both our hair is frizzy.
