BTW, with having doggie visitors of late, I've seen some strange reactions
to fish oil capsules. Luna would bite it, drop it on the ground and roll in
it (resulting in a bath). Satchmo who is *terribly* food motivated just
gummed it around, figured it to be non-food, and spit it out. My two always
crunch into them and eat them as treats. Haven't known a dog that didn't.

Oppie snarfs them whole. He thinks Labs don't do chewing. Chile
won't eat her food if I squeeze a couple of drops out of a
capsule and mix it in, even though she snarfs down salmon.

One of the reasons that I buy online is that the local
feed store only carries salmon-based fish oils, which I
think is the norm for fish oil supplements for pets.

Is there a difference between fish oil supplements for pets and humans?
IIRC, the last time I compared, the difference was more in the
packaging/marketing/price than in contents.

I buy it in a health food store. I believe (perhaps
inaccurately) that the handling, temperature-wise, is better
there than in pet stores. Omega 3 oils oxidize pretty easily,
and so they should not be exposed to temperature extremes. I
store my fish oil caps in the refrigerator.

Some people are judgmental hypocrites! I don't own the site and the
people that own that site don't know that I even posted that message.

So you pissed off a whole bunch of people and lost the sellers of
this oil some potential business? How nice of you!

If you have absolutely no commercial interest in the product, if
you will not make even the teensiest profit from the product, why
didn't you put a disclaimer to that effect in your original post?

Why did you post a link if you didn't think it would bring
potential customers to the site? But no, I would not have been.
I don't buy anything from links used to spam newsgroups.

google on BTW. You already know what wtf means.
