    Yes! The oil is wonderful for their coats and offers important Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Many dog owners often offer canned mackerel and salmon on a daily or weekly basis. You can also supplement their food with a liquid fish oil or fish oil capsules, available in drug stores, pet stores, and vet offices.

    Gotta go with Gypsy Girl's Brain Age for Nintendo DS. I have one too and you'll really start to see improvements after a month or so of constant playing. There's also Big Brain (for both the DS and Wii) that does the same job very well. Both are worth the investment. Also, according to gaming reviews, the rest are just garbage. I haven't tried them out, and, unless I can find a place to rent them, I'm not going to waste my money on trying them out.

    Yes, the oil is good for their coats and thier joints. I feed my dogs on tuna fish every day (on the advice of my vet) as it is low fat and very healthy. They never get bored of it - they really love it! I also put a teaspoonful of cod liver oil in with their food. Strangely enough, they much prefer their food with it than without it - ewwww! Hope this helps

    Dogs love stinky fresh food. ACK Golden Retriever loves it and cheap. No longer buy all the extra stuff to keep coat and skin normal. I watch the water bead of his fur again and no bugs.

    Yes it is great for their coat. My two Dachshunds and German Shepherd mix love it.
