I know a lot of us give our dogs supplements but was just wondering what everyone gave and what for!!
Here's my list I! Since I give the girls different things L is for Lotus D is for Daisy (duh)
Each day I alternated between oils Salmon Oil (omega 3 and 6 joint care, skin coat, eyes etc) L/D Coconut oil (skin, coat, general health) L/D Cod liver Oil (as salmon oil) L/D Olive Oil (coat and skin) L/D Evening Primrose oil (skin, coat etc) L/D just started today Glucosamine (joints) D Skullcap and Valerian (anxiety) L Angel eyes (tear stains) L Kelp (coat growth and pigment) D/L Vitamin C (immune system and absorption of rest) D/L
Lol think I'm a little OTT with supplements I keep adding more hahaha but my girls have amazingly soft coats for what it's worth lol

When i asked my vet about giving Dottie vitamins,she said you can over do it and it can be dangerous they get all they need in their food.I did ask her about Nutri-cal and was told just a little blob everyday would be fine and that's all she would need till she was a proper weight,so i'm a bit frightened to give anything else

I don't give it all at once lol and tbh I wouldn't take a vets advice on nutrition ther education is a day corse normally by a bug food provider! All the oils are alternated throughout the week! Angel eyes is temporary and kelp is about 3 times a week

Both of mine get:
Glucosamine - every day Salmon oil - About twice a week Nupro - once a day
I used to give Roo the missing link, but have been giving her nupro lately.

Mine get a tiny scoop of Nupro once a day. That is all I give them. May/will change as they get older.
