Winter weather can lead to dry, itchy skin for pets. Excessive shedding, scratching and dander production might mean your dog or cat could benefit from a supplement containing omega-3’s. These essential fatty acids are well-known for their ability to help pets with dry, itchy skin and to promote a healthy coat. In fact, clinical studies in dogs determined that those given a diet with higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids had healthier skin and coat than those dogs fed a more standard diet. Sardine oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and a good addition to your pet’s diet.
Nature’s Logic North Atlantic Sardine Oil, derived from wild sardines, is a natural, rich source of Omega-3 Fatty Acids. This brilliant, gold oil is the most popular source of EPA and DHA used in dietary supplements. It contains more EPA and DHA than salmon oil and has naturally lower levels of environmental contaminants. The oil is then purified and molecularly distilled to remove all the traces of harmful contaminants and achieve its human, pharmaceutical grade.
Here in CindyLu’s domain, the weather’s turned rather chilly. The animals had already begun their Fall shedding, which was really apparent on the ones that tend to shed in clumps or just plain profusely. Our hardwood floor has become carpeted these days, you might say.
CindyLu herself has been very, very itchy – so much so, I combed her for fleas. No fleas, nothing that might cause an itch. But with the colder air and the dryness from the heat running, her skin’s been driving her mad. We tried out Nature’s Logic Sardine Oil here on all the pets. It’s made a definite difference!
CindyLu is still scratching, although much less so now. I suspect that I haven’t given her enough of the oil though, so my bad… Chester, who normally tends to be itchy thanks to allergies, has shown tremendous improvement. He’s been much calmer about itching – in fact, hardly scratching at all – and his coat looks fabulous. That’s no easy task for a shepherd mix with severe allergies in the Fall.
The cats have noticeably smoother, softer fur. I would dare to describe it as luxurious. Their itchy episodes were banished when I began adding the oil to their food. All pets look healthy and are undoubtedly more comfortable than they would otherwise be. The sardine oil has truly made a positive difference on both dogs and cats here.

In winter, Sissy’s paws get dry and sometimes will start to crack.
Julie says
Dumpling already itches himself regularly, but with winter coming, that means even more dry, irritated skin!

Oh, boy, could we use this. My 4 cats and dog would really benefit. I have been wanting to try it.
Maggie says
Two of my guys have really bad allergies that often manifest in dry, itchy skin and a rash. I’ve been trying different fish oils but haven’t found one potent enough yet. This sounds like it would be worth a try!!
Brian says
I’ll bet that Sardine Oil works pretty darn good!
Jen says
Elka doesn’t seem to get ITCHY in the winter, but she definitely has skin that is more dry. Typically, we put some olive oil on her food, or sometimes coconut oil. I’m sure she would love Sardine oil!

We live in Central NY and just this past month as the temp has dropped I noticed when I brush my cats that 2 of them have bad ‘dandruff’ (dry skin), and my one female is so itchy she’s chewed at her back pulling her fur out. I bought topical remedies but I never thought of Omegas! I take them myself -what a great thing for my cats. Wonderful giveaway and thak you for introducing me to this product!

It actually usually means temporary, mild relief from seasonal allergies.
Misty says
We spend a lot of time in the water during the winter, so omega 3’s are essential for keeping our waterproofing up.
klahanie says
Oh no, only open to folks living in Canada and the USA. Never mind, good luck to all those over the lil’ ol’ pond who enter the giveaway 🙂

My cat likes to lay on the radiator as soon as it gets chilly so her skin gets dry. She does like to drink the liquid from sardine cans so maybe it’s instinct that they know they need some fish oils.
Rick says
The girls get so dried out that they need extra “fur pills” and a humidifier.
Nancy says
Molimo usually doubles up on her oils so she isn’t so itchy.

Charlotte Cramer says
My cat gets really dry skin and has some dandruff. My vet recommended giving him fish oil, so I’d love to try out this product!
Mindy McCrea says
My dog’s skin gets flaky sometimes, and his coat gets dry. His paws get really cracked too from the snow.
