Not all grains are bad and some dogs do better on grain free and some do better on high quality grains.. such as oat groats and brown rice. My dogs do great on Oat Groats and Brown Rice. People that I talk to think they need to go grain free because of the problems with the low quality grains — mainly corn. I explain to pet owners I talk to that not all grains are bad.. use what works best for your dog or cat.

If Fish Oil is too costly, you can try using Coconut Oil. You do need to slowly build up to the suggested serving size for your dog’s weight or it can cause loose stools. If you start increasing the dosage and you notice loose stools, simply back down on the dosage. Coconut oil is beneficial for their skin, digestive, and immune systems; metabolic function; and even their bone and brain health!

For dogs:

Large-medium sized breeds: 1 measuring teaspoon to start, gradually increasing to 1-2 full, generous tablespoon size (measuring or eating type) over the course of 1-2 weeks. Add to food once a day and serve.

Small-toy dog breeds and puppies: 1/2 – 1 measuring teaspoon to start, increasing to 1 full tablespoon over the course of 1-2 weeks. Add to food once a day and serve.
