For £34.50 (instead of £46), you get 2 BOTTLES AS A BUNDLE to provide your dog with all the Omegas they need at an affordable price for such a high quality supplement! (please don't try to add another 2 to the cart :)

Omega 3 Daily is a premium source of Omega 3 rich in DHA and EPA Omega 3s where fish get their Omegas from - the pure microalgae! As dogs cannot absorb their much needed fatty acids from sources such as flaxseed as well as we can, it is best to provide it in a source that they can absorb, and that they will love the taste of!

Formulated with human grade ingredients, Omega 3 Daily 150ml bottle offers a pure nutrition profile that we feel is the very best for your dog. Ideal for supporting dogs with joint pain, skin and digestive issues, heart concerns, and for very fussy dogs to keep them eating their pure plant-based wholefoods as it is so tasty!

Unlike typical fish-based supplements, it contains none of the toxic build-up of antibiotics, heavy metals and microplastics found in fish oils (with NO fishy breath!), but the best bit is the rich flavour – you are feeding your dog salmon oil without the salmon!

Each 1 teaspoon of Omega 3 Daily provides a whopping:
- 470mg EPA
- 330mg DHA
- Total Omega 3: 835mg

We have even included 0.2mg of the antioxidant powerhouse Astaxanthin from microalgae that krill and salmon eat to give their bright pink colour! Ideal to possibly delay the signs of ageing in your dog such as cataracts, greying muzzles and doggy dementia with its high anti-oxidant effect. Definitely something you want to add to your dog's food daily!

Please note: As it is full of such rich ingredients, introduce Omega 3 Daily slowly over 5 days increasing the amount daily to prevent stomach upsets.

Please see a chart of homecooking for your plant-based dog that requires the use of Omega 3 Daily to ensure that the recipes remain balanced.

Why not flaxseed for dogs?

Other sources of Omega 3 for your dog include ALA fatty acid from flaxseed. Due to the very low conversion rate of ALA to the important fatty acids DHA and EPA in dogs, you would need to feed your dog a month's supply of flaxseed (ALA) to obtain the equivalent bio-available Omega 3 as you would obtain from 1/2 tsp of Omega 3 Daily!

Where does the Omega 3 come from?

Fish don’t naturally produce Omega 3 DHA & EPA in their livers, they get it from their diet of krill that eat the algae. The big fish (cod) eat the little fish… who eat the Omega 3 rich krill that eat the algae in the ocean.

Scientists decided to cut out the middleman… or middle fish in this case! The ocean bed is a complex ecosystem and small fish rely on this algae and krill to survive, so disturbing this ecosystem to obtain Omega 3 rich algae could be a damaging thing.

Very clever scientists (in this case in Holland) grow this algae which is cultivated in conditions just like the seawater in bioreactors on land without the pollutants and heavy metals that unfortunately affect many of our seas and oceans now. The end result is a high quality, plant-based source of pure Omega 3 DHA and EPA that the whole family can take (we do as a family:)

What are the plastic bottles made from and are they BPA free?

The plastic bottle is made from NEOPET 80 and is food safe, as well as BPA free and we have a BPA free statement here as our products are all human-grade.

We also have a Certificate of analysis (CoA) available showing the levels of EPA, DHA and results for heavy metal and oxidation testing.

The company producing our Omega 3 Daily are ISO22000 certified with certificates available upon request as we deal with a human-grade company.

Instructions for your dog's needs

Omega 3 Daily can be given to dogs and puppies over 12 weeks of age. Add to your dog's dry food, tinned food or home cooked food EVERY DAY to enhance their health. Introduce gradually over 5 days to prevent any digestive issues.

Small dogs <10kg - 1/2 tsp daily (1 bottle will last 2 months)

Medium dogs 10 - 25kg 1 tsp daily (1 bottle will last 1 month)

Large dogs 25 - 45kg 2tsp daily (1 bottle will last 2 weeks)

Extra large 45kg+ 3 tsp daily (1 bottle will last 10 days)

Please note that this dose can safely be doubled if your dog suffers from arthritis or itchy atopic skin conditions, and you are using Omega 3 for its anti-inflammatory effect due to the high levels of EPA.

Another option for dogs with arthritis, is to combine Omega 3 Daily with our GOLD DUST Joint and Heart Supplement for maximum intake of anti-inflammatory joint nutrients and a JOINT POWER DUO.

What are the concerns with giving Omega 3 Algae oil?

If your dog is due to undergo an operation such as a dental or routine spay, then stop giving for a week before the operation and a week after as Omega 3s naturally thin the blood and can result in more bleeding than normal.

Remind us why Omega 3 is so beneficial to our dog's health?

The human and dog body can make most of the types of fats it needs from other fats or raw materials. That isn’t the case for Omega 3 fatty acids. These are essential fats—the body can’t make them from scratch but must get them from food.

Most of us know the benefits of Omega 3 acids in our diet. These important acids are DHA and EPA carrying a host of benefits, mostly centred around their anti -inflammatory nature.

*SO GOOD FOR YOUR DOG'S BRAIN, SKIN, JOINT AND HEART HEALTH*

THE UNSUNG HERO FOR YOUR DOG’S PAINFUL JOINTS

Omega 3 fatty acids, particularly EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid) for joints, and DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid), are known for their anti-inflammatory properties.

See published studies here.

Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury or disease, but it can lead to joint pain and stiffness when it becomes chronic.

By reducing inflammation, Omega 3 can help alleviate these symptoms, making it a crucial nutrient for maintaining joint health.

BUT THAT’S NOT ALL!

Omega 3 also plays a significant role in collagen production.

Collagen is a protein building block for most tissues, including your dog’s joints. It provides structure and strength to their joints, helping them to function smoothly.

By promoting collagen production, Omega 3 helps maintain the integrity of their joints and reduces the risk of wear and tear.

Moreover, Omega 3 enhances calcium absorption in their body.

Calcium is a crucial nutrient for bone health in dogs. It helps build strong bones and maintain bone density.

By enhancing calcium absorption, Omega 3 contributes to bone health, providing additional support to your dog’s joints.

After all, healthy bones are essential for healthy joints!

ALGAE OIL IS A PLANT-SOURCED POWERHOUSE

Made from bright pink microalgae called Astaxanthin, it provides a rich source of antioxidants that is 150 times stronger than carrots!

Plus, it’s heavy metal and pollutant-free, and suitable for all ages from puppies to elderly dogs, making it a safe and sustainable choice for ALL dogs.

Antioxidants are there to reduce greying of your dog's muzzle, delay the onset of cataracts in their eyes, and it enhances their brain health to delay any doggy dementia and keep them bonded to you for longer.

The science behind Just Be Kind

Every Just Be Kind recipe is built on published veterinary nutrition science. Here are the key studies Dr. Arielle draws on — translated into plain English.

Dr. Arielle's note

"I reference these studies when speaking to sceptical vets about my patients' diets. The evidence for nutritionally complete plant-based feeding has strengthened considerably since 2021."

Taste preference

Plant-based versus meat-based pet foods: Owner-reported palatability behaviours

Proof that vegan dog food diets are as palatable as meat-based or even raw in this significant study carried out during 2020 and published by Prof Andrew Knight in June 2021

Largest Study of 2536 dogs showing dogs fed vegan diets were healthiest!

Dogs fed vegan diets clearly had the best health outcomes in this very large-scale study, and these results are consistent with prior studies in this field. – Prof Andrew Knight Sept 2024

Digestion

Dog domestication reveals adaptation to a starch-rich diet

A fascinating study proving how mutations in key genes occurred allowing increased starch digestion in dogs relative to wolves. These results indicate that early ancestors of modern dogs could thrive on a diet rich in starch.

Health Outcomes

Reported Health Benefits of a Vegan Dog Food - Dr Mike Davies (2022)

Davies (2022) surveyed 100 dog guardians who had switched to a nutritionally complete vegan dog food designed by UK vets. "The vegan food was acceptable (palatable), and appetite and body weight were not adversely affected."
