HealthyCoat is recommended by veterinarians and trainers because it is comprised of the purest form of Omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids to bring optimal health for your dog!

Bacon Flavored HealthyCoat® is the All Natural Food Supplement for your dogs’ optimum and overall health.

Founded in 1997, HealthyCoatis an Iowa-based company that has perfected a unique cold extraction process to produce an all-natural liquid food supplement rich in the highest quality Omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids (EFA’s). This method, using low temperatures and no chemicals, maintains these fragile nutrients and EFAs, which are often lacking in a dog’s diet. HealthyCoat’s EFAs provide a natural source of Vitamin E and Lecithin, fortified with Niacin, Biotin and Vitamin B12, which boosts optimum animal health and encourages top performance.

EFAs are essential to canine health, but because dogs cannot produce them naturally, those EFAs must come from an outside source. Good food should provide most of the vitamins, minerals and proteins for your animals’ nutritional needs. However, essential fatty acids are fragile. Most dry food is exposed to air, light, heat and processing which Destroys essential fatty acids (EFAs). Therefore, most animals are deficient in Omega 3 and Omega 6 EFAs. HealthyCoat provides a rich natural source of Vitamin E and Lecithin and is fortified with Niacin, Biotin and Vitamin B12. HealthyCoat’s proprietary mechanical manufacturing process uses no chemicals or heat, which can damage the fragile nutrients. Instead, it creates a highly palatable liquid food supplement that is easily digested and slowly metabolized, so it will not cause nervousness or uncontrollable energy.

In addition to promoting a glossy coat and healthy skin, HealthyCoat helps maintain healthy joints and addresses issues related to EFA deficiency including dry skin/allergies, inflammation, excessive shedding, arthritis, flea dermatitis, reproductive issues and below optimum performance. HealthyCoat also provides maximum energy to muscles, and is ideal for boosting nutritional levels for animals in the often-stressful conditions of competition.

What is inside the bottle, and how are the oils made?
The guaranteed analysis lists a minimum of 98% total fatty acids, with linoleic acid (Omega-6) at a minimum of 50% and linolenic acid (Omega-3) at a minimum of 7%. It is fortified to deliver vitamin E (minimum 250 IU/lb), niacin (minimum 34,000 mcg/lb), biotin (minimum 5,000 mcg/lb), and vitamin B12 (minimum 337 mcg/lb), with moisture held to a maximum of 0.50%. Critically, no chemicals are used in extracting the oils from the seeds, preserving the nutrients in their purest, most bioavailable form. That clean extraction is a core reason veterinarians, trainers, and groomers recommend it.

How does HealthyCoat work on skin and coat?

The concentrated omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids feed the skin from the inside, reducing excessive shedding, dry flaky skin, itching, hot spots, and flea dermatitis. The same fatty acids and lecithin support digestion and help the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, while also helping prevent and ease inflammation and sore joints. Many owners see visible results in just 4 to 6 weeks of daily feeding. Reduced hairballs and less overeating are common side benefits owners report.

How much do I feed, and is it safe for puppies?
Feeding is by body weight, mixed into the daily meal: 1 teaspoon for dogs under 25 lbs, 2 teaspoons for 25 to 50 lbs, 3 teaspoons for 50 to 75 lbs, and 4 teaspoons for dogs over 75 lbs. It is safe for all classes of dogs, including puppies, pregnant and nursing females, and senior adults, and a cat version (1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per 20 lbs, introduced gradually) exists as well. A 16 oz bottle supplies roughly 30 days for a 50 to 75 lb dog. Because the bacon flavor improves palatability, most dogs take to it without coaxing.

Where can I buy Bacon Flavored HealthyCoat®?

The dog supplement comes in a Pint (16 oz), Quart (32 oz), and Gallon size, with smaller 4 oz and pint bottles offered for cats. It is sold on Amazon, through local farm and feed stores, and through the online vendors listed on the company website. To talk with the company directly, healthycoat.com offers a "Request a Call Back" form. The brand stands behind every bottle with its 100% satisfaction guarantee.
