Veterinary Grade Omega-3 & EFA Supplements for Dogs & Cats

Can dogs have too much fish oil?

Yes. Excess omega-3 intake can cause loose stools or affect normal blood clotting. Stick to labeled amounts and check with your veterinarian before increasing the dose.

Is human fish oil safe for dogs and cats?

Some human fish oil products work for pets, but dosing and additive levels differ. Pet-specific formulas are measured for your pet's size and needs.

How long until I see a difference?

Results can vary between pets, so follow the product directions and give your pet time to adjust to the routine. Your veterinarian can help you decide whether an omega-3 supplement is appropriate for your pet.

Do cats need omega-3 too?

Yes. Cats benefit from omega-3 for skin, coat, heart, and brain function, though their dosage needs are smaller than a dog's.

What's the difference between omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9?

Omega-3 and omega-6 are essential fatty acids your pet must get from food or supplements. Omega-9 is not essential but still supports overall fatty acid balance.

What Are Omega-3 & EFA Supplements?

Omega-3 and EFA (essential fatty acid) supplements provide EPA, DHA, and ALA, fatty acids dogs and cats cannot make on their own. These fatty acids are rich sources of nutrition essential for healthy skin, coat, joints, and brain function. Most pet food contains far more omega-6 than omega-3, creating a nutritional gap daily supplementation is designed to fill.

Why Your Dog or Cat Needs Omega-3s

Omega-3 intake can vary depending on your pet's diet and the food they eat.A pet's skin, coat, and mobility can be influenced by many factors.

Skin & Coat Support

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for a healthy coat and skin. Regular use can provide nutritional support for healthy skin and coat.

Joint Flexibility & Mobility

Omega-3 fatty acids can be part of a balanced nutritional routine for overall wellness and joint support. They help support joint flexibility and mobility during normal daily activity.

Heart & Brain Function

Fatty acids are vital to everyday heart and cardiovascular health. DHA also helps support normal brain function at every life stage.

Every Stratford omega-3 formula is built around these same core benefits, whether your pet takes a liquid or a soft chew.

Liquid or Soft Chews? Choosing the Right Format

The best omega-3 supplement is the one your pet actually takes every day. Format matters more than most owners realize.

Omega V3 Liquid

Liquid formulas mix easily into food and work well for multi-pet households. Dosing is simple to adjust by drops or pumps. Explore the Omega V3 Liquid with Pump for dogs and cats of any size.

Omega-3 Soft Chews

Soft chews suit picky eaters and dogs who see supplements as a treat. They travel well and need no measuring. Shop Omega-3 Soft Chews for Dogs in small, medium, large, and giant sizes.

Dogs who also need joint support often benefit from combining formats. Our joint supplement format guide breaks down chews, powders, and capsules in detail.

How Much Omega-3 Should You Give Your Pet?

Dosage depends on body weight and the concentration of EPA and DHA in the product you choose. As a general guide, dogs typically need 20 to 55 mg of combined EPA and DHA per pound of body weight daily, and cats need a proportionally smaller amount. Always follow label directions for your specific product and confirm the right amount with your veterinarian, especially for pets on medication.

Follow the serving directions on the specific product label rather than adjusting the amount on your own. Consistency matters more than a large single dose.
