Overall health

Skin and coat health
Packed with Omega-3 and Omega-6, fish is particularly beneficial for promoting healthy skin and coats in dogs. Not only does it boost coat quality and feel, but it also aids in lessening dry skin AND is hypoallergenic. And what’s better, hydrated and healthy skin = less itching and skin irritation, 2 notoriously common issues hard to combat for many dogs and dog owners.
More shine and wayyyyyyy less dry. In saying this, these essential fatty acids do a tonne more than just providing a glossy and healthy coat, so let us keep the ball rolling (literally).
Joint health
Hip and joint problems are more common in large or senior dogs, and sardines are their allies. The fatty acids in this fish help reduce pain caused by inflamed joints. Additionally, the calcium and phosphorus found in sardines support your dog’s skeletal system.
Ocular health
Just like for humans, the nutrients found in fish (such as Omega-3) is vital for the successful development of eyesight. The same goes for dogs, especially when they are puppies, which is such a crucial developmental stage in their life. Puppies’ brains grow at a rapid rate and so it is vital that during their first few months of life they are provided with the appropriate nutrition that will support their brain and vision development.
Docosahexaenoic acid also known as DHA is an Omega-3 fatty acid that is notable for its key part of the gray and white matter in the brain. This part of the brain is critical for memory, learning, nerve signal transmission and of course vision.
Without adequate levels of this fatty acid (found in fish), it can lead to poor brain and vision development. This is so crucial because vision plays a key role in a dog’s experience on earth and without it, or without a high quality of vision, a dog’s life would be severely different.
Sardines for Heart health
Studies involving dogs consisting of a range of breeds, genders, ages, etc showed evidence that fatty acids found in fish had a positive effect on their cardiovascular health and overall heart health. These positive effects included lower blood pressure, reduced inflammation, improved heart function, increased appetite and reduced muscle loss.
The conclusion of this study was that dogs who consumed the fatty acids found in fish are reported to live longer and healthier lives. So, what are you waiting for? boost your dog’s life by implementing fish into their diet today.
Puppies
DHA fatty acids help refine learning abilities, memory, eye function, and motor skills in puppies. DHA is instrumental to a puppy’s development, and it will help puppies reach their full potential. Coenzyme Q10 is excellent for neurological development which sardines treats for dogs will provide.
Seniors
DON’T FORGET THE SENIORS
Whilst we have mainly focused on the importance of fish consumption during the early years of a dog’s life, Omega-3 found in fish is also extremely beneficial for more senior dogs too. Not only does it help to boost their immune system, but Omega-3 also helps to combat common conditions that arise with age such as arthritis, joint inflammation and other autoimmune diseases.
Fatty acids found in fish help support joint health, decrease inflammation and in doing so aid in diminishing the occurrence of blood clots and other relevant age related health issues.
