Skin and Coat Supplement with Fish Oil and Omega 3 for Dogs and Cats - Dog Itch Relief Pet Supplement for Shedding, Dry Itchy Skin and Allergies - Dog Allergy Treatment Vitamins (90 Tabs)

I normally don't write reviews unless a product exceeds my expectations, and this supplement does.My poor dog was shedding like crazy. I've had my share of dogs over the years, and none shedded like she does. Since she is mostly white, "with some chocolate areas on her body" you could actually see the pink pigment of her skin.I was told my Staffordshire-Terrier/Labrador mix has alopecia, a disorder in dogs which causes it to have partial or complete hair loss.I was also told there was not much that could be done, as it is similar to male patterned baldness.I tried dog foods for healthy hair and coats, and she broke out in hives. So I put her back on Science Diet. The food she has been eating since she was a puppy, and when I adopted her at six months of age.I decided it wouldn't hurt to give Makondo Pets Skin and Coat Daily Supplement a try.First let me tell you while my dog like the smell, she does not like the taste. I break the tablet into four pieces and have her swallow it.Hiding it in treats, or grinding it and adding it to her food wouldn't work. She refused to eat it.So I taught my dog if she takes her pill, she will immediately get her favorite treat Canine Carry Outs.At first this didn't seem to be doing anything, "but since it had 60 tablets in a bottle" I figured I might as well finish off the rest of the tablets. It was almost a month and a half later that I noticed I wasn't being covered in dog hair every day, and I was forgetting to brush her with the Furminator brush I bought. When I vacuumed I could see there was virtually no dog hair in the carpets, and I could actually run my hand down my dogs back without winding up with a hand full of hair.This stuff really works, even if it my dog doesn't like the taste. I was afraid this summer I would have to limit her outside time, for fearof her getting sunburn. Now that worry is gone, and we can enjoy the warm weather when it finally decides to arrive in the midwest.So if you do try this supplement, don't give up too soon. Give your dog one tablet every day, for the entire two months supply you receive.Yes, $20.00 might seem expensive, but that's for a "two months" supply. I believe my dog's health is worth $10.00 a month.Also, since I buy Science Diet Dog Food on Amazon, "because it's cheaper than anywhere else I can find it" and they raised theirminimum free shipping rate, I can still get free shipping.I just order her food and supplement one month, "then skip a month" and order her food and two bags of her favorite treats the next month.Perfect!Update: I just ordered my third bottle of these tablets this morning. 04/15/2016

I have a large breed dog -Great Pyranese/German Shepherd/St. Bernard mix - 125 lbs. So you can imagine the shedding between all these breeds. Two issues - MAJOR SHEDDING! and skin infections from bacteria/fungus. His skin was so bad it was flaking. Other issue is we think he has some kind of allergy from the skin infections so we can't feed him a bunch of stuff - like Salmon Oil which I know is great. So after reading the reviews I decided to try these, at least for the shedding, you can't imagine how much hair he sheds. He gets two pills a day due to his weight so I give him one in the AM and one in the PM. I aslo bought the Probiotics for Dogs - sold here on Amazon to help his immune system. He has been on these pills for about 3 weeks. I also use the furminator on him, which helps. I just brushed him and got only 1/2 brush full! I was AMAZED! I didn't think anything would cut down his shedding but I'm a believer now! He eats the pills no problem I just throw them on top of his food. If you have a dog that is driving you nuts with shedding here are some things you can do:1. Make sure he is on GOOD dog food, grain free, good source of protien (Acana, Orijen are great foods)2. Give him this supplement3. Put him on a good Probiotic for Dogs (they sell on Amazon)4. Use the furminator brush on him at least once a week5. Buy a blow dryer for dogs - they have an inexpensive portable one here on Amazon -this gets rid of a TON more hair after you give him a bath, it really helps.These are the things I have done for my dog and I think it really made a difference so I wanted to share. Hope this helps!

I waited for a month of using this product before writing a review as it takes about a month to see any results. I couldn’t be more impressed. My working German Shepherd was constantly itching to the point of making herself bleed behind her ears. My vet gave her a steroid shot to try stop the cycle but she started itching again after only a few days. I had switched to a premium food (which I wouldn’t feed anything else) but this particular formula was gluten free. Gluten is a problem for a lot of dogs so as soon as I noticed the itching I stopped feeding gluten as that has stopped the itching on other dogs. But several years ago, I had an adult Shepherd that was being given allergy shots but he had such dry skin it would bleed just by cracking. My vet sold a vitamin B supplement then and just adding that stopped the itching and ended the need for allergy shots. Thank goodness for Amazon and all the products they carry so I could research the choices and this is the one I chose and will continue to use as long as she doesn’t start itching again but no sign of going back to that. No problems getting her to eat it at all. Her coat wasn’t in bad shape before but after a month of this it is noticeably thicker and longer and her skin is soft with no itching. Skin conditions can be very hard to diagnose so sometimes it takes multiple tries of different things. I am so relieved that this was her cure. Thank you to the company that makes such an excellent product. Don’t change anything!

Our little fur ball lost his coat to the point he had big spots on his back, tail and back leg that there was not any fur left. We had spoken to the vet on several occasions and they said it was probably hormonal, it would cost thousand to run the tests and most likely there was nothing to be done.WE decided to try this supplements back in May and we started to see a change in July. We stuck with supplement and now his fur is thick and soft again not at all thin and dry. We also noticed that he became more playful and a little more energy although his favorite hobby is to snuggle next to you.You may have to give it some time and initially I gave him 1/2 a tablet but upped the dose to a full, now I split one tablet between my two poms.
