Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Cod liver oil. I put about 15ml on her food 3-4 times a week. Coat gleams and is good for joints too. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LaraCroft 863 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I give mine sardines and other oily fish - and a decent brushing once a week. I have a blue merle lad who shines like coal on it. Good luck showing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikeball 108 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Cod liver oil and groom it with a hack saw blade. It will come up nice 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
littlefish 587 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Has he got a smooth coat or is it a bit wooly from the collie perhaps? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bobbybootleg 1,500 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 good grub, good excercise,good housing with good bedding and the occasional rub with a dull hacksaw blade is all thats needed. mind the greyhound lads swear by an evening primrose capsule a day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
