Bugalugs Scottish Salmon Oil for Dogs and Cats 500ml

Bugalugs Scottish Salmon Oil is a premium, 100% natural supplement, sustainably sourced from the purest waters of Scotland and created to improve the overall health of dogs and cats.

In short: This high-quality oil is an exceptionally rich source of essential Omega-3, Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acids, including the invaluable EPA and DHA. The formula has a proven effect in improving the condition of the skin and coat, soothing persistent itching and restoring the coat's natural softness and shine.

Beyond appearance, salmon oil is critically important for optimal brain development, maintaining healthy joints and stimulating the immune system. The supplement is perfect for fussy eaters, as it gives any meal an irresistible taste, and it proudly carries the Made in UK badge.

Healthy skin, supple joints and strong immunity

Essential fatty acids are vital for your pet's normal growth and development. Because dogs' and cats' bodies cannot synthesise them on their own, they must be obtained through food. Bugalugs Scottish Salmon Oil delivers large doses of these critical nutrients in their purest, most easily absorbed form. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) have a powerful anti-inflammatory action that directly relieves joint stiffness and protects cartilage from wear, bringing back the joy of movement.

For dogs and cats suffering from dry skin, dandruff or seasonal allergies, salmon oil works like a conditioner from the inside. It deeply hydrates the cells, creating a healthy skin barrier that stops itching and inflammation. The liquid is micro-filtered for absolute purity, and the handy pump makes dosing child's play, making every meal tasty and extremely beneficial.

When to use it

Choose Bugalugs Scottish Salmon Oil in these 3 situations:

• For animals with dry, flaky skin, persistent itching, dandruff or a dull coat that has lost its shine and softness.
• To support the joints and mobility of senior dogs and cats, or of active breeds under heavy physical strain.
• When your pet is extremely fussy and refuses its usual food – the oil instantly improves the taste of kibble.

• Omega 3, 6 and 9: A complete profile of essential fatty acids for all-round health.
• Skin and coat: Deeply hydrates the skin and gives the coat a mirror-like shine.
• Joint support: EPA and DHA reduce joint inflammation and improve mobility.

Frequently asked questions

Question 1: What is the difference between salmon oil and linseed oil? Salmon oil is of animal origin and contains highly absorbable forms of Omega-3 (EPA and DHA), which act much faster on the joints, brain and immune system. Linseed oil is a vegan alternative with similar benefits, which is ideal if your pet has a diagnosed fish allergy. Question 2: Can I give this oil together with other supplements? Yes, all products in the Bugalugs range can be combined. However, if you are already giving another fatty-acid-based supplement, it is better to use just one product so you don't overload the body with calories from fat. Always follow the recommended daily dose. Question 3: From what age can I start giving salmon oil? The product is completely safe and recommended for dogs over 10 weeks of age and kittens over 8 weeks of age. Adding it at such an early age is extremely beneficial, as DHA fatty acids accelerate brain development and make animals more receptive during training.

Expert tip

Salmon oil is sensitive to heat and light, which can cause it to oxidise and go rancid. To preserve the full properties of the valuable Omega-3 fatty acids down to the last drop, always store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If your home gets very warm in summer, you can even keep the product in the fridge.
