Full details
This Wilsons Pet Food Salmon Oil is designed for dog owners seeking to enhance their pet's overall health, particularly skin, coat, and joint function. Its key benefit is providing essential omega fatty acids from a high-quality, sustainably sourced Scottish salmon base. A potential caveat is that the rich taste, while appealing to many dogs, might require adjustment for extremely picky eaters accustomed to bland diets.

FAQs
What is the recommended daily dosage?
Dosage can vary based on the dog's weight and specific needs. Generally, 1-3 pumps per day is recommended. Refer to the product packaging or consult your veterinarian for precise guidance for your dog.
How long will a 1000ml bottle last?
This depends on the daily dosage. For a medium-sized dog using 1-2 pumps per day, a 1000ml bottle can last approximately 2-4 months.
Can this salmon oil be given to puppies?
Yes, this supplement is suitable for puppies aged 2 months and older, supporting their growth and development.
What is the source of the salmon?
The salmon is farmed in the fresh waters and sea lochs of Scotland, adhering to ethical and sustainable farming practices.
How should I store the salmon oil?
Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the pump cap is securely closed after each use.
What are the main benefits of Omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids?
These essential fatty acids are crucial for healthy skin and coat, brain function, heart health, immune response, and joint function. Omega 3s, in particular, are not produced by the dog's body and must be obtained through diet.
Does the oil contain any artificial additives?
The composition is 99.5% Salmon Oil and 0.5% Antioxidants (Natural Tocopherols). It is a 100% natural product with no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.
Troubleshooting
Pump is not dispensing oil.
Ensure the pump mechanism is twisted to the 'open' or 'dispense' position. Check if the internal tube is submerged in the oil. If clogged, gently rinse the nozzle with warm water and try again.
Dog is reluctant to eat food with added oil.
Start with a smaller amount (half a pump) and gradually increase to the recommended dose over several days. Ensure the oil is mixed thoroughly into the food. The oil has a rich taste that most dogs enjoy, but some may need a brief adjustment period.
Oil appears cloudy.
This is normal, especially in cooler temperatures, as natural fats can solidify. The oil remains effective. Gently warm the bottle in your hands or a bowl of warm (not hot) water to liquefy if desired before dispensing.
