Here’s why
Flaxseed oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for a healthy coat and skin. These fatty acids help reduce inflammation, making them great for dogs with arthritis or other inflammatory issues.
If your dog has dry, itchy skin or a dull coat, flaxseed oil can help. It nourishes the skin and promotes a shiny, healthy coat, reducing itching and flakiness.
The anti-inflammatory properties of flaxseed oil can improve mobility in dogs with joint problems. It helps reduce pain and enhances their quality of life.
Flaxseed oil contains lignans, which are antioxidants. These help strengthen your dog's immune system, making them more resistant to illnesses.
While flaxseed oil itself isn't high in fiber, ground flaxseed can help with digestive health. It can ease constipation and improve overall gut health.
Pressure & Kidney Function
Flaxseed oil can help regulate blood pressure and support kidney function, which is especially beneficial for older dogs or those with specific health issues.
In addition, flaxseed oil is a dry oil. It has the ability to absorb quickly without leaving a greasy residue. This makes it an excellent choice for topical applications, like moisturizing skin, but also for finishing wood projects. It penetrates deeply into the wood, enhancing its natural grain and providing a warm, rich finish. It is natural, safe and sustainable. Most dog's love the mildly nutty taste.
This is why we chose to finish our Bonno chews with flaxseed oil from New Zealand.
