Omega 3 is not harmful and an excellent way to help with Allergies, but it also provides antioxidants such as Zinc, Vitamins A & C and gives your dog a healthy skin and coat. It also helps your cat fight off pollutants in the air. Biotin is Vitamin B and helps build muscle and repair the dog's coat and skin. 3V GRIZZLY SALMON OIL IS BEST TO COMBATE YOUR DOG'S ALLERGIES. It adds fatty oils to skin tissue and counteracts any drying to the skin that happens with the allergy medication it is on. it helps reduce itching and biting and lessens the inflammation that is already there because of the allergy. Omega 3's are a good supplement for any diet (human or animal) but as far as your vet... he was trying to get some more money, the vet business is hurting right now. Omega 3 is an essiental fatty acid, meaning you must get it from your diet, and the body cannot make it . A dog food that has meat listed as the first ingrident is vital as the most common reaon for shedding and hair loss with itching is corn and wheat in dog food. If it is the first ingrdient then that is what the dog food is mostly made of. This conditon can be reveresed in months and with the proper dog food the omega 3's can be stopped after the skin has healed. The proper dog food miust be continued or the condiiton will return.
