| Salmon Oil I have some question regarding salmon oil for dogs. I have two yorkies Bella a girl and 9.5lbs and Polo a boy 5.5lbs I would like to start supplying them with salmon oil in there food Bella is always bitting her paws and scratching a lot so I thought it might help I ordered Grizzly Salmon Oil in a small size on amazon. It has not arrived yet but now I am seeing that when you give salmon oil to dogs you need to give them Vitamin E is this true? Also how often should I give them salmon oil a couple times a week or everyday? Also Polo eats Ziwi peak Vension which is pretty much the same as raw it is meat and organs and it says it has vitamin E in it. Bella Eats Soild Gold just a wee bit and it says it has Vitamin E in it also, I am just wondering if there is enough in there food for me to not have to supply extra. And if I do need to supply Vitamin E what foods could I give them that are healthy and full of Vitamin E?

| When I gave it to mine, I followed the instructions on the label. I've never heard of needing to add Vit E, their food does have it in there as a preservative. Sorry I couldn't be of more help....

| I have never heard of adding Vit E when adding fish oil. I occasionally add Ark Naturals. Royal Coat Express 16oz. and the dosage is on the bottle: Up to 12 lbs: 1/8 tsp Your product should also have dosage information to follow. |
