Give 1 softgel cap daily per 20 lbs of your dog’s body weight. The caps can be given as a treat or mixed with your dog’s food. The caps can also be punctured and the oil applied directly onto your dog’s food.

The description says it's good for small dogs but the capsule is huge for a Yorkie. It also has peppermint, which they say is safe in small amounts but I'd rather avoid it completely. Wish I could get my money back because they're not going to be used at all due to the size.
Unless you are okay with ramming this down your dog's throat, I don't recommend the capsule form. My dogs can't chew it so I found punctured capsules on the rug. Now, it smells of fish oil there. I now puncture the capsule and squirt it on my dog's food. I am hoping I can return the second unopened bottle.
Disappointed, but my fault, really, for not reading nutrition label closely. Have been using welactin liquid recommended by and purchased at vet clinic. Was looking for easier method and lower price. Still going through supply of liquid, but will have to give 13 capsules daily to get same amount of omegas. My dog will eat anything, so capsules should be easy, but 13/day not affordable.
I was looking for a good Omega product for my dogs. their skin and coats were dry and flaky. Their fur was becoming rough. I have on with CHF and joint issues. My holistic vet recommended this product. It is amazing and utilizing Chewy well priced. With 3 dogs we go through the bottle pretty quick. Once I can time it better we will be doing autoship! thanks Chewy
I initially bought this for my 9 yr old lab who has arthritis, vet rec. Bought chewable first, then soft gel caps. My dog (pretty indiscriminate eater) ate both forms without issue. Now giving to my 1yr old lab bc of health benefits. Issue is that the bigger the dog, the more tablets/dose. But capsules are less expensive and seem to work on joints and skin/coat.
Horribly toxic to my dog. Read the ingredients and research if peppermint oil is safe for dogs. He was violently throwing up until I figured it out. Should never be used.
Nutramax scores big again! DID WONDERS FOR MY BULLDOGS SKIN AND COAT. Took about 3 to 4 weeks but his skin issue is gone and his coat is soft and shinny This stuff is worth every penny
I have been using welactin for two years on my 11 year old lab / terrier mix. It along with exercise and a senior diet has helped his skin and hair look amazing. I highly recommend it as his special diet, more exercise and the daily dose of welactin has lowered his cholesterol and triglycerides a little.
It worked quickly and our dogs itching has decreased plus her coat is much softer. But a real bonus is that she does not have a foul dog odor anymore. She smells sweet and our house no longer smells like wet dog. Highly recommend this product!
I have been using this as recommended by a Chewy vet, but it doesn't seem to be working. My dog has flea allergies and chews and scratches incessantly. I finally found a Hemp oil tincture that seems to be working much better than this product, which was very expensive. You would think at the price it would be an amazing product, but no. Not for my Chiweenie, after a week I saw no change until I used the other product, which worked within 2 days, from my local pet store, which was half the cost!
