Plant Power for Vitality and a Shiny Coat

Flaxseed oil is known as one of the most concentrated plant superfoods. For dogs and cats suffering from dry skin, itching or a brittle coat, Bugalugs Flaxseed Oil works as a natural moisturiser from the inside out. Its high Omega-3 fatty acid content helps reduce inflammatory processes in the body, which is especially beneficial for keeping joints supple and healthy in more active or older animals.

Beyond the benefits for appearance, this flaxseed oil is excellent support for the digestive system. It helps the body absorb nutrients better and regulates bowel movement. As it is completely natural and contains no artificial colours or preservatives, it is extremely gentle on the stomach. The handy pump allows precise addition to the daily food portion, turning every meal into a healthy treat for your pet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1: What is the main difference between flaxseed oil and salmon oil? Flaxseed oil is a plant-based source of Omega acids and is ideal for animals with fish allergies. It contains Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA), while salmon oil contains EPA and DHA.

Yes, flaxseed oil is completely safe for puppies over 10 weeks and kittens over 8 weeks old. It is extremely beneficial during growth for developing a healthy immune system and keeping the coat in excellent condition. Question 3: How should I store flaxseed oil? Cold-pressed oils are sensitive to light and heat. To preserve its beneficial properties, store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use the product within 9 months of opening.

Expert Tip

If your pet is very fussy about food, flaxseed oil is a great way to make mealtimes more appealing. Its light, nutty aroma often stimulates the appetite of "picky" dogs and cats. In addition, if you notice your pet has harder stools, adding flaxseed oil to the diet will help with easier, more comfortable bowel movements thanks to its natural lubricating properties.
