How much Vitamin E to supplement Omega 3 Fish Oil to avoid Vitamin E deficiency?

[bornagainsteve]

Hello, I've read that giving fish oil to your dog for long periods can cause a vitamin E deficiency. Does anyone know what is the recommended amount of vitamin E that should be given to prevent this?

The fish oil that we purchased is pure Alaskan Salmon Oil and doesn't have anything extra, so we need to supplement the vitamin E ourselves.

Also if you have any recommendations on how to best provide it would be great

Thanks!

@bornagainsteve Read Karen Beckers book. It explains how to give different supplements and when, along with tables to follow if you’re following her recommended diet. Once you understand it, then you can tweak the diet in an informed manner to understand how changing one thing affects other things etc.
