RE: [RC] flax seed & dogs - Susan E. Garlinghouse, D.V.M.
Yes, I give it to my dogs---in fact, most
of the research for omega 3s has been in dogs. Nice for the coat, but
even better for arthritis issues in the old guys. Give them about a
teaspoon or so---they tend to be pretty sensitive to it, and it absolutely can
give them diarrhea, so don’t go overboard with it.
