mattydski 560 Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 My own opinion is that if you are feeding a correct balanced diet, and the dog is wormed properly, you should need a supplement. Is the worming up to date?Feed the dog oily fish as part of its food, such as tinned sardines.. this is what i do for my cocker, he use to suffer with scurvy but now his coat it like gloss plus its the fish oils for the brain. half a tin a day mixed with his kibbles. lidl 36p a tin. only down side is the misses keeps cutting her hands on th etins but she'll get use to it one day.lol ATB Phil Asda has them for 0.24p...........not that I am skin flint Its the only reason I'd go in the poxy shop..........robbing gits!

Walkertalker 0 Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Tried most of the oils but I think the best thing to give your dog to get a great coat is a Raw diet and eggs twice a week raw and boiled both offer different proteins. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Especially on a rough coat, and they smell worse than usual. the dog builds up a fatty residue on the skin and coat, which is OK if you like a dog with a wax jacket. If thats the case get them a Babour Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Before anybody has a fit, these are all raw, many vets recommend them!! But NEVER EVER give a dog a cooked bone, best of all most of it you can get for free!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ribb 15 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 giving the dog a good old hand rubdown 2or 3 times a week should help bring out the natural gloss of its coat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
