Overview
['Each gel capsule in this 90 count bottle delivers a documented dose of omega fatty acids, with 80 mg of DHA, 120 mg of EPA, and 72.8 mg of GLA per capsule, adding up to more than 750 mg of omega fatty acids total. The product is labeled allergen free and is formulated for skin care, targeting coat quality specifically.', "VetriScience markets this as a 3,6,9 fish oil blend for both dogs and cats, and it's sized for large, medium, and small breeds rather than one specific weight class, so it works across most household dogs. The gel cap format is straightforward to dose since each capsule has a fixed, labeled amount of active ingredient.", 'With 824 reviews and a 4.4 star average, plus roughly 600 units bought in the past month, this has a steady but modest following compared to some of the bigger names in the fish oil category, and it holds the #69 spot among dog fish oil supplements on Amazon.']

Performance notes
Because this is a fixed dose gel capsule rather than a pump oil, portioning is consistent from one capsule to the next, which some owners prefer over measuring liquid oil. The blend targets coat and skin specifically rather than joints or heart, so it's positioned as a coat focused omega supplement.
What buyers say
A 4.4 star average across 824 reviews suggests most buyers are satisfied, though the review count and roughly 600 monthly purchases are more modest than several higher volume competitors in this category.
Each gel capsule provides 80 mg of DHA, 120 mg of EPA, and 72.8 mg of GLA, for a combined total of more than 750 mg of omega fatty acids per capsule, according to the product label.
Is this formula only for skin and coat?
The label positions this as a skin care formula aimed at coat quality and shedding, so it's not marketed as a joint or heart specific supplement. Talk to your vet if you're looking for a formula targeted at a different health concern.
Can cats use this too?
The product is labeled for both dogs and cats, though dosing should follow the label or your vet's guidance since needs can differ between species.
