Description Omega-3 Pet Cod Liver Oil Note: All three-product sizes are the same product formulation. Nordic Naturals pet products are specially formulated for dogs and cats. In order to ensure safety, please use only our Nordic Pet Collection for dogs and cats, not our human products. Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are important fatty acids for humans and their dog and cat companions because they cannot be made in the body. The only source of EPA and DHA for these species is through the diet and/or supplementation. EPA and DHA are necessary structural components of cell membranes. These omega-3 fatty acids maintain the cell membrane fluidity and permeability needed for healthy, functioning cells. EPA and DHA are found abundantly in cold-water fish. Flax seed oil contains ALA, another omega-3 fatty acid that requires the body to first convert ALA to EPA and DHA before utilization. Humans and dogs have limited ability to make this conversion, while cats have even less ability to make this conversion. Therefore, supplementation with high-quality omega-3 fish oil is recommended for humans, dogs and cats. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble and essential vitamin in the diets of dogs and cats, and is found naturally in cod liver oil. Vitamin A is important for normal vision, immune function, fetal development, growth, and cellular differentiation (important for maintaining healthy skin cells, corneal cells, and other cells lining the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and reproductive tracts). |

Key Reviews
5 out of 5 stars.
Excellent for my German Shepherd and for me! Supports skin, hair, joints, eyes and cardio-vascular! A "must have" for German Shepherds!
My little 13 year old beagle was starting to look her age, but then I added Nordic Naturals cod lived into her diet. She is softer than my favorite blanket and looks like a puppy again!!
I give this product to my 12 year old/60lb dog, 1/2 teaspoon 2x/day. He enjoys it very much and along with other supplements has had enjoyed healthy heart function ever since he started. He also likes licking it off the teaspoon after dropping into his food bowl!
My dog loves this on his food! It’s also beneficial and has helped his fur
