Critic's Name: Cat (Catmandoo)
Breed: Greyhound
Comments: Great product. It has a nice odor that isn't offensive like the fish oils I've used in the past. Cat really seemed to enjoy the flavor and ate it with gusto. I see results in his coat already -- he's very soft and smooth to the touch. Even strangers petting my dog notice how soft he is. I would like to see a better way of dispensing the product. It tends to make a mess when I'm measuring it out. Otherwise, a super product! Thanks for letting us try it out!!

Critic's Name: Udo and Uma
Breed: Shiloh Shepherd, and Dachsie Mix
Comments: I have tried other brands of flax oil and have always had a difficult time getting Udo to eat it. Much to my surprise, both my dogs loved the taste of this product.

My little mixed breed dog Uma has a sensitve tummy, and many supplements tend to give her problems with gas and/or loose stool. We didnt have an adverse reactions to this supplement, in either dog.

I fed the amount recommended on the product package and ran out after only five days. I am not sure that five days is long enough to see what kind of effect a nutritional supplement has on skin and coat. I would have liked to see how the dogs were doing after two to three weeks on the product. However, it still gets very high marks from me for making it past BOTH my picky eater, and the one with the sensitive tummy.
