Has anyone tried Missing Link? How did it work out for you? Is the another all around supplement that works better? I'm looking for something with Omega 3 and possibly some joint support.

I've been wondering too about Dinovite. People I know use it for their doggies and say it's great. I asked the vet about it and she said I could give it a try, that it surely would not hurt...and then also mentioned another one...the Missing Link you are asking about. I'm sorry I don't know much more, but hopefully others will help us out here.

Yes, I like Nordic Naturals and Cosequin much better than Missing Link.

For the nordic naturals, do you use the pet products? Do you use the cod liver oil of the gel caps? Are the gel caps small enough for a Maltese? I've tried Salmon Oil and Fish Oil before. The Salmon Oil stinks something awful and none of my pets seem to like it, not even the cats. The fish oil capsules were too big and had to be punctured, which again was smelly and messy. I've also heard that some fish oils can give the dog an odor, have you noticed this with Nordic Naturals?

For the Omega 3 you can use Flax oil, and it comes in liquid form available in Wal-Mart for I think about $4

Perri wouldn't eat fish oil because of the smell either until I tried the Iceland Pure salmon oil. It doesn't have a smell and he eats it without a problem. Here is the site link: Iceland Pure

That's a good product too. BTW, Nordic Naturals has both animal and human supplements. I don't use Cod liver oil for Nikki, but I have used the human products for her, a few times a week.

What about plain flax seeds? I have some organic flax seeds I bought to cook with.

Which human supplements do you use for your Malt? I've only looked at the pet supplements so far. I know it's a good brand, my mom takes some of them.
