Stengel Oils Premium Flax Products

makes Sammy's Shiny Coat, a cold-pressed Omega-3 flax oil for horses and pets. Since 2005 this South Dakota family company has pressed flax oil using a freshness-focused cold process, made from 100% virgin, cold-pressed flax oil with no soybean oil fillers. Because Omega-3 fatty acids support basic cellular health throughout the body, it is used to help with coat condition, skin health, stronger hooves, joints and soft tissues, circulation, and digestive balance. It's a simple daily solution for horse owners who notice a dull coat, dry skin, brittle hooves, stiffness, seasonal skin irritation, or digestive imbalance — and want one product that works across multiple body systems at once.

Why cold-pressed flax oil instead of a cheaper blended oil?

Stengel Oils uses a cold process to press flax seed because it is considered one of the freshest ways to produce flax oil — preserving the natural Omega-3 content without unnecessary heat processing that may reduce nutritional quality. Sammy's Shiny Coat is made from 100% virgin, cold-pressed flax oil and contains no soybean oil fillers. That purity matters to owners who specifically want the Omega-3 benefits of pure flax oil instead of the diluted blends many lower-cost products use. The company believes strongly in every product it produces and even offers to take back any unused portion for any reason.

How does Omega-3 flax oil support more than just a shiny coat?

The shine owners notice is often only the beginning. Omega-3s are “good fats” involved in many body systems, so Sammy's Shiny Coat is designed to help support skin and hair health, healthy circulation, immune balance, gastrointestinal function, soft-tissue support, and normal hoof growth — all at once, rather than targeting a single isolated area. Because horses cannot efficiently create these essential fatty acids on their own, many owners supplement with flax oil as part of a balanced feeding program. Flax oil also delivers a concentrated source of fat-based calories and Omega-3 support without adding excessive starches or sugars, which makes it a natural fit for senior horses, horses in heavy work, and horses facing seasonal weather changes.

How much flax oil should you feed daily?

Sammy's Shiny Coat is simple to use and designed to work easily into a normal feeding program. The recommended starting amount is 1/4 cup daily, which can then be adjusted for the individual horse based on condition, workload, environment, and nutritional goals. It mixes easily into grain, pellets, or forage-based diets — an easy daily solution for owners looking to improve a horse's coat, hooves, and overall wellness naturally.

Who makes Stengel Oils Premium Flax Products?

Stengel Oils Premium Flax Products was founded in the spring of 2005 by Cal and Rhonda Stengel after they returned home to their native South Dakota, in the heartland of flax country. It remains a true family operation: Nathan and Alex Stengel both help with operations, evening shifts, and maintaining the presses, which keeps oversight hands-on throughout production. Instead of large-scale anonymous manufacturing, the Stengel family stays directly connected to every batch — an approach that appeals to owners who prefer products from a company with a personal connection to its customers and animals.
