#1 Premium Antarctic Krill Oil Soft Chews for Dogs | Rich in Omega 3 | Astaxanthin | Vitamin E | for Skin and Coat | Low Allergen | Low Calorie | cGMP Certified | Made in USA | 60 Savory Soft Chews

Krill oil has only around 24% fat per chewable and your dog only gets one a day. Wild Alaskan salmon fish oil is 99.9% fat and it will also put weight on your dog that is not needed. Krill oil also helps with your dog's heart and their cardiovascular system and it keeps their skin healthy and their coat soft and shiny. It's the best fish oil on the market and you can Google that and compare it to wild Alaskan salmon fish oil and see the results yourself

(I'm reviewing this item for dogs, as that's what I have - 2 Yorkies.)The overall benefits of Krill oil for pets aren't addressed nearly enough, but should be. First, if you're giving your dog salmon or fish oil instead of Krill, which is probably the case based on several factors (price, availability, knowledge/familiarity of the former over the latter, etc.) I would ask you to look into the benefits of Krill v. Salmon. Just to highlight a few of Krills advantages, it contains Astaxanthin, one of the most powerful antioxidants that the body can absorb, reaching into every part of the cell, both inside and outside of the body. It can cross the blood brain-barrier to protect the brain and nervous system. It also can cross the blood-retinal barrier, so it brings protection to the eyes. Astaxanthin also helps with joint pain and inflammation.Krill is also rich in Phospholipids, DHA, Essential Fatty Acids including Omega 3, 6 & 9. All of which are necessary for a healthy heart. Additionally, Krill is a natural source of Chitosan (it's a derivative of Chitin), which has been shown to help maintain healthy weight, cholesterol and blood pressure levels.Finally, you're going to find that most of your salmon/ fish oil products (or food) comes from the Pacific. You don't want to give your dog (or yourself) ANYTHING that comes from the Pacific due to the Fukashima disaster. Dog food, cat food, treats, salmon/ fish oil - if it's sourced from the Pacific (that includes Alaska) you might want to reconsider feeding it to your beloved pet.Here is another reason why Krill is the better choice over salmon or fish oil in general: Krill is at the bottom end of the food chain and as such, they don't have time to accumulate high levels of mercury or other contaminants that salmon or other fish do. So, I've listed just m a few reasons why I choose Krill over salmon or fish (I'd NEVER give them fish oil!!) to my pups.As for why I chose this particular brand, its Krill is harvested in the Antarctic, which is known to have the most pristine Krill, so they are considered a "clean product." That's important to me because not only do I believe eating and living as clean and organically as possible for my husband, daughter and me, our pets are treated no differently. I want the best for them and currently, I am happy with this product. Perhaps I may find a product with organic ingredients in it, and if so, I would try that, but we have had success with the Tru-Krill and my Yorkies love the taste. Treats are called, "cookies" in our house, so when it's time for their Krill, I say, "Who wants a cookie?" they come running.The only complaint is that, they are crumbly if you have to cut them for small dogs. They remind me of Play-Doh that's been l left out and has started to dry a bit. But, whatever crumbles are left over, I just sprinkle over their food and it's an extra bonus for them. No big deal.

I bought this product to see if it would help my dog's scratching. (Chihuahua and Poodle)I was going to give it 4 to 6 weeks to show results.Wow, after about 4 days they both stopped scratching. The Chi scratched several times a day and I felt so bad for him. The Poodle also scratched, but not nearly as often.They have both stopped entirely. I can't believe the results and that it happened so fast, it's amazing. I haven't changed their diet or anything else, so I have to think its the Krill. They both like the treat and it will crumble a bit, but it's no big deal. I am so pleased, and really shocked, at how quickly and how well this product has worked for us. I will update in a few weeks.

My dog absolutely loves these. They seem to help with a smooth silky coat. They might help a little bit for shedding.

This stuff works! Shedding reduced 85-90% in 3-3 1/2 weeks. I have a 11 mo old yellow lab that started shedding about 2 1/2 mo ago. It was terrible, no matter how often I brushed her or had the deep brushing done by the groomer we were still filling up the vacuum canister every day, our clothes were like a dog hair magnet. Out of desperation, and my wife could not take it any longer, I started looking for alternatives. Amazon is my go to place for just about everything I buy, when I saw this Antarctic Krill Oil with the claims it helps prevent shedding I thought, OK I'll give it a try. The reviews were a mixed bag, though overall it had good ratings. A couple of concerns I had based on the reviews were, the dogs didn't like the taste and wouldn't eat the pellets, some dogs threw up, didn't work for shedding, although the dogs coat became very soft and shinny. I followed the directions and gave her two pellets a day she devoured them with no problem. About the second day she did throw up a small amount, that was solved by giving her the pellets right after she ate. In 3 to 3 1/2 weeks her shedding was reduced by 85-90%. I love this Krill Oil and suggest you try it for a month by then you will know if it's going yo work on your dog. By the way, I got very lax on her brushing and in-spite of that her shedding was down tremendously.Danny from W. TN

Marlie's Joyful Lady reached the age where she wasn't so joyful any more! She was having difficulty even getting to her feet when lying down. After x-rays at the vets displayed the reason (degeneration where her spine and hips met) we sort of accepted there wasn't much that could be done. But then I ordered this product! She has been taking them ever since and I signed up for automatic delivery! No I can't say that they completely reversed her condition but she has been able to get up and down stairs ever since we began giving them to her daily! As long as she remains alive she will continue to receive them and we of course would be happy if that is another 10 years!
