Dull coat, and a dog who spits out every pill? Start with the format. Ask your vet whether your dog needs omega-3 at all, then pick the one he will take daily.
The verdict, by need
Your dog spits out pills: BARK&SPARK Omega 3 Fish Oil Treats. A soft chew, so supplement time looks like treat time.
More than one dog: Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Multi-Dog. One pump bottle serves every bowl.
One dog, and your vet suggested fish oil: Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Pet Soft Gels. Concentrated EPA and DHA in small gels.
Chew for the pill-spitter. Pump for the pack. Soft gel for one dog and a vet's suggestion.
BARK&SPARK: the soft chew
EPA and DHA omega-3s from fish oil in a soft chew, so there is no oil to squirt and no fishy smell on your fingers. Give it daily and follow the label for the amount.
The catch
Each chew has calories, so count it toward his daily food. Visible results take weeks, so give it a steady run before you decide.
Skip it if
You want concentrated fish oil in small soft gels. Nordic Naturals Soft Gels are that. Our daily routine for pill-spitters shows how to work the chew in.
Nordic Naturals Multi-Dog: the pump
High-concentration omega-3s from wild-caught fish in a liquid with a pump dispenser. Pump it onto his food at dinner and serve every dog's bowl from the one bottle.
The catch
It is a big bottle, so clear a shelf, and use it up within its timeframe before you start a fresh one.
Skip it if
You have one dog. The soft gels below are the smaller format.
Nordic Naturals Soft Gels: the concentrate
Concentrated EPA and DHA fish oil from wild-caught fish, in small soft gels sized for easy feeding. A cruelty-free pick. Follow the label and your vet for the amount.
The catch
Some dogs spit a gel. Tuck one into a bite of his food.
Skip it if
You have more than one dog. The Multi-Dog pump serves every bowl.
Before you buy
Judge by the brush after weeks, not by day three. Flaking, bald patches, scratching until he is raw, or red or smelly skin need a vet, not a supplement. More in our coat health guide, or see every skin and coat pick.
