Hi Melysa - try Yumega Plus it's supplied by Lintbells I get mine from my vets but I think you can get it from places like Pet & Home or probably online - Jed is 28Kg and has 10ml per day in his food. Also putting pilchards into his feed will help but make sure it's the ones in tomato sauce and not brine. A good dog shampoo is always worth a try as well - I did Jed today and he isn't impressed with me at the moment, I think it's because he's gone very fluffy and his street cred is in tatters!!!

Hi Graeme we use Yumega oil for our girls' skin and coats. It's widely available in places like Pets at Home or on the internet and I do believe Ruth sells it at the kennels. It's good for skin and coats and is balanced for Omega 3 & 6. It's only a teaspoon am & pm in their meals. You can read more at https://www.lintbells.com/products/yumega-dog Our girls are both black and have lovely shiny coats. In the summer we use the Yumega Plus formula as Lola seems to get seasonal itchyness and starting it early this year seems to have really done the trick. I'm sure Trevor's coat will improve over time in any case, but this would give it a boost. Very best of luck with your boy - I love his ears in those photos :-). Linda.

Greyhound 'Dave' became Greyhound 'Trevor' after many discussions over his name this weekend. Looking for a bit of advice from any of you guys. Trevor's coat is quite patchy in parts and I'm wondering if anyone has any special secret's to fix this. I've been adding in fish oil into his food but just curious if there's anything else worth a try? Help is greatly recieved. (just looking to do the best I can for him:) Thanks!

Sadly I have to report that the cat trial week didn't go well. Snip got better and learnt not to look at the cat when she was in the room but unfortunately, the cat got less and less happy and moved into the garage and stopped eating. She apparently was also howling when on her own in the house. So despite loving her loads, my friends have had to say no to having her. HOWEVER, Paul and I have decided she can't go to yet another family and needs stability so have decided to join the FFC and we're keeping her. But we're DEFINITELY stopping at 4!
