Despite hemp oil becoming so popular, that oil is rich in the fatty acids linoleic acid (LA and omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).
They’re not rich in EPA and DHA and therefore need to be converted, but they do that very inefficiently.

Omega-3 fatty acids, and in particular, EPA and DHA, been shown to improve mobility and reduce inflammation and pain, in dogs and cats. The most bio-available source of EPA and DHA is fish oil.
Common outcomes:
DHA in particular supports brain health, helping to improve learning ability and memory.
Cod & Plum is combined with native Kakadu Plum and Davidson Plum extracts. They're both helpful for fighting oxidative stress and supporting brain health.

In addition to having an antioxidant capacity more than times that of blueberries, Kakadu Plum is also rich in vitamin C, with about 100 times more than an orange. Vitamin C acts as both an antioxidant and antiradical and has been shown to help support joint heath.

yes they can, and it will be beneficial for both.
Just add daily or a few times a week to food, using a teaspoon. And, yes, you can overdo it.
The reported dose range of omega-3 fatty acids is 230 to 370 mg of EPA and DHA/kg of body weight for dogs with osteoarthritis. It should be noted that the safe upper limit of EPA and DHA recommended by the National Research Council, is 370 mg/kg of body weight0.75 for dogs, so that amount should not be exceeded.
My Belgian Shepherd loved the oil as I mixed it up in his raw meat with the Bestie Raw Food Balancer and he just gobbled it all down. No more hesitating when he jumps on the bed or couch and he takes a flying leap now into the backseat of the car!! I was thinking that it was just about time to take him to the Vet for some arthritis meds but I would try this oil first! WOW, what a significant difference in his demeanor, movement, and attitude. Obvious changes were noticed after 2 weeks of daily additions to his evening meal. Great product - Bestie has solved yet another expensive issue for the arthritic dog who is now no longer arthritic OR stiff after sleeping! Unbelievable! Always have some in my fridge and am wondering if I should take a swig or two as well! Lol ;)
That is awesome!!! Glad to hear (and yes, I get a bit tempted myself...especially when I read about the good things Davidson Plum also does for the BRAIN...just saying...)
Perfect ingredients. No shortcuts taken with any Bestie products. These are the real deal.
Great to hear!
I have been adding this oil to his food daily for almost a month and my dog is becoming very puppy-like (he's actually 8 years old).
He's chasing balls, frolicking with other dogs and seeking cuddles. It's lovely to watch.
Unfortunately my cats are all ferals, and incredibly picky about what they eat. I tried adding this blend to their wet food, and they wouldn't touch it. However, don;t let this put you off the product, my cats are just awkward, they get nothing from catnip either :-)
What a shame! Most cats like that fishy smell and taste...and it's so good for them too. Thanks for letting us know.
Unfortunately this oil seemed to upset my dog's stomach
Sorry to hear that! Did you mix it in with food?

My two fur babies love these and they help them to settle down when anxious and when they notice we are organising to go away. Be it for the day or overnight. They really do help them out.
Excellent! So glad they love them and that they're helping..❤️
I didn't think Charlie would eat them with being hard, but they were fine he ate them with no problems
My kelpie x border collie gets really anxious hearing mowers. She was drooling and shaking when she heard them. Since taking 2 daily Bestie anxiety chews, she now looks alert and a bit anxious but not the other things. I’m very happy.
That's great to hear! Thanks for letting us know and glad they're helping her.
I have 6 cats & two dogs. I've been using the bestie meal topper for cats & the anxiety therabroth for a couple of months now. My cats are thriving! One of them who was never overly phased about food & required a high moisture content diet goes WILD for breakfast & dinner now. He hasn't had any urinary issues since we made the switch. Will be starting my dogs on the dog version very soon. Wish I discovered Bestie earlier!!
Wow, that's awesome...I love it! So glad bestie balancers and broths have helped your cats...and that they love it...brilliant.❤️
