Vit E...do you ??

Just read that June gives the dogs Vit E .

I feed Natural Instincts to the dogs and vit E is not mentioned in that. They also get bran with their meals, so I guess that should provide them with some vit E????? They have natural probiotic yoghurt. Cottage cheese twice a week when they get their fish

Should I give a daily supplement too?? How many of you do that??

Been reading about dogs and Vit E and it seems it should be something called alpha tocopherol...said to be a better kind and also to avoid cheap forms as they can have too much vit A. Always complicated....

Just interested to know what you folk do and if I should be adding more to their diet??

I give vit E, evening primrose, garlic and seaweed, to mine 5 days out of 7. Kira has other vits because of her epilepsy, milk thistle and St johns wort, again 5 days out of 7. They also have red meats poultry, fish, cottage cheese ( that they love!) yoghurt and fruit and veg, lol they eat better than I do!

I get the human grade vits as I find ones just for dogs cost almost twice as much! I don't think I'm giving them too much because if I run out of one and they don't have it for a week or so, I can see the difference in thier coats.

I'm not very techy, and although I do try to read up about them it all goes over my head! lol, so I just work with what I see.

I give Vitamin E, Evening Primrose, Garlic, B Complex and Omega 3, I used to give Salmon Oil, but got it through ebay, and I forgot to order it, etc.

i give cod liver oil and mackrel, and sometimes zinc to toshka and even primrose when my whippets in season as she goes reli weird but shes getting fixed next month thank god


NEVER GET A WHIPPET lol

Thank you...Most of those things or similar are in Natural Instincts...just seems to be the Vit. E that is missing....

The recommendations that I gave June when she first bought the two girls from me was based on a do it yourself raw diet however Joce you feed natural instincts and that is a complete food and is ideal for the novice or those with a busy life style as it has been all worked for you.

Thanks Lyn...Just that I could find no mention of vit E on their site. Still the dogs are doing well and they love N I. They never tire of eating it.
