Health Henefits at a Glance:

After over 40 years of being passionate about people’s health, Life Extension is now also taking the enthusiasm to man’s furry friends. Under all that fur, there’s skin.

The omega-3s in fish oil in DOG Skin & Coat can make sure this hidden hide stays healthy and may relieve occasional discomfort. 

This dog supplement, with a delicious salmon flavor, contains no artificial colors or flavors and is manufactured in the USA.

Why it Works:

We want our pets to live long, healthy lives. That’s why Life Extension® DOG was created. It’s a line of "Fur-Ever Healthy" formulas made with the same quality and attention to detail as their other supplements.

If your dog needs healthy skin and coat, overall support from a multivitamin, relief for his hips and joints, or something to help calm and relax it, you can help your dog enjoy years of adventures with Life Extension® DOG.

DOG Skin & Coat contains a high-potency and pure omega-3 fish oil formula. The EPA & DHA fatty acids in fish oil are demonstrated to help relieve occasional skin discomfort, so your dog spends less time scratching occasional itches. These nutrients also help promote overall skin and coat health in dogs.

Please note that this skin and coat formula is perfect for dogs of all breeds, shapes, and sizes. However, it’s not suitable for dogs under 1 year old.

The Science Behind the Product:

Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) are the two most well-known omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil. 

These omega-3 fatty acids have a healthy reputation for a reason: they are shown to promote canine skin health, encourage comfort, and help maintain a healthy coat of fur. (1,2) 

Two scientific studies

In a 6 week-long study, dogs were given an omega-3-rich marine oil. They showed a significant improvement in skin health, comfort, and overall coat health compared to the control (which was corn oil). (1)

In another study, dogs who were fed a potent omega-3 supplement for 90 days exhibited healthier hair and fur compared to the placebo group, as measured by omega-3 fatty acid concentrations in their fur. (2)

How to Use & FAQ:

When can my dog expect an effect?

In research studies of dog skin and coat health, effects were seen as early as 60 days, with the best effects seen after 180 days. However, due to each pet’s unique biochemistry and lifestyle, the time it takes to notice benefits may vary from dog to dog.
