Omega-3s for Skin & Coat: Best Sources for Summer

It’s not just the sun that can dry your dog’s skin out—heat, allergens, hydration levels, and inflammation all play a role. And that’s where today’s superfood group comes in: Omega-3 fatty acids.

They’re essential for skin, coat, joints, brain health, and more—and when the heat’s on, dogs need their anti-inflammatory power more than ever.

🐟 Why Omega-3s Matter in Summer:

• Support skin barrier function = fewer hot spots and less itching

• Reduce inflammation from allergies, heat stress, and gut imbalance

• Hydrate from the inside out

• Promote a shiny, soft coat even during seasonal shedding

The problem? Most dogs are deficient in Omega-3s—especially those on dry food or unbalanced fresh diets.
