What my dogs are eating today...


Fish oil! Goofy and Fred LOVE eating these caplets. They pop them open with their teeth to get at the oil.

Fish oil is great for dogs because it is anti-inflammatory, so if you have an allergic dog it's ideal. However, it's now recommend to help with all sorts of conditions, including cholesterol, kidney disease and arthritis. Omega-3's also support healthy skin, coat and eyes. I definitely noticed a difference in their coats after a month or so of feeding them fish oil. The coats were shinier, and they shed less.

Although you can feed your dog fish oil from pet supply places, I prefer to feed them the human version.

Best Dog Jacket...Ever


I just bought one of these for Fred. This small company in Canada makes amazing dog jackets for any breed, but they also make jackets for long and lean sighthounds.  A must for any short haired dog!
