Coconut oil is all the rage right now, with consumption up 40% year on year since 2010. But is it a passing fad, or are the health benefits so great we should be shovelling it in to or on to the dog as well?
Coconut oil is a very good source of energy. It has well documented antibacterial, antiviral and anti-fungal properties too. However there are so many uses we’ve broken it down into external and internal uses.
Start gradually at ¼ tsp per day and build up. Work up to 1tsp per 10kg of bodyweight up to a maximum of 3tsp per day.
Then go by what works for your dog. If you discover oily stools then reduce the amount fed. If your dog is overweight reduce the amount by half. Then see how it goes for a couple of weeks and adjust accordingly.
There are loads on the market, both online and in supermarkets. We can't recommend one over another but follow the points below as a starter for ten.
