I cut one open and spray it on his food about every other day. It's the same stuff.

I just bought the one with the blue on top. It contains chicken, duck, and lamb. It says Ultra Premmium on it so I guess it's the right one. It also has Omega 3 and 6. Why do you put extra Omega 3? Do you buy that in capsules?

I guess I do the extra omega 3 since he has dry skin. I couldn't find the Omega 3 & 6 combo in capsules so I just got omega 3. I honestly don't see a big difference when I add it. It just gives him fish breath. I just feel like I should since I bought an entire bottle.

How long has it been since you started using the Omega 3? My dog has dry skin behind his ears and I was thinking of buying the salmon oil but if Omega 3 works I can get that easier.

Or you can buy some "adult food" and mix the two for a while until the puppy food is gone. This way, they'll sail right through it.
