We recommend feeding Safe-Sea daily to help balance your dog’s fatty acids. This will bring the omega-6/omega-3 ratio from 11:1 down to 6:1.
But don't add any oil to the recipe directly. To reduce oxidation, you don't want to expose the oil to oxygen for too long. Instead, give it daily with your dog's meal.
IMPORTANT
The ingredients in this recipe have been carefully chosen to meet AAFCO minimum nutrition requirements for adult dogs. Don’t replace ingredients or vary the amounts too much … this may unbalance the food. The berries are optional but all other ingredients need to be in the recipe in the listed amounts.
