    Thanks for that - still, how much to give?

    Also, can this be turned into liquid (warmed up?) form as I need something to mix bran into Zara's dry food and liquid oil is easy for that.

    Sorry, it's approx 1tsp per 10kg so 4 tsp or a large tbsp for Zara. Start with half dose and work up to full dose. Also try massaging it into her skin if she's got really dry patches. You can melt it, a few seconds in microwave will do, but you'll probably find she'll just eat it from your hands. Most dogs love it ;)

    I use fish 4 dogs salmon oil with Logan. His coat has a good shine but it is still coming in, sometimes I think he looks like a scruff :(

    What is wrong with good old fashioned Cod Liver Oil?

    Long term, it's not great as it contains high levels of vit A which isn't excreted but gets stored in the liver, and can cause damage . Salmon. Or fish body oil, is reputedly healthier and more effective :)
