A pets need for nutrition is no less important than our own. The same principles we use to create wellness for ourselves also apply to the health of our pets. We love to see our dogs coat bright and shiny as this is an outward sign of good health. Feeding your dog a meaty bone is only part of their fat requirement. What is overlooked is your dogs need for unsaturated fats such as the Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids. These essential fats serve functions in cell membranes and in metabolic regulation. Of the two, Omega 3 fats are not normally included in canned or dry foods so supplementation is essential for optimum health and a shiny coat.
