Salmon oil is a fish oil that a dog can benefit greatly from. You can also add a weekly treat of oily fish such as sardines or mackerel (best in spring water) as this will have the same effect.
Salmon oil contains omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. It is the omega 3 fatty acids that are so valuable in salmon oil. Salmon oil helps improve coat and skin quality and lubricate joints, which an elderly dog may benefit greatly from. It is advisable to use this instead of Cod Liver oil, as this contains a high level of Vitamin A which can be harmful if fed too much.
Salmon oil can be found in most health shops and can be added to the dog's meals a couple of times a week. Only a small amount is needed each time.

Yes, it is very good actually. Salmon has oils that can help a dog with dry skin. These oils also help improve to look and health of your dogs coat. Instead of salmon, since it can be expensive, you can also use a tablespoon of olive oil in their food. Fish oil pills also work great.
