AniForte Algae Oil is a simple, single-job supplement: a vegan, fish-free source of omega-3 for dogs who can't, or won't, take fish oil. AniForte are a family-run German brand who've been making natural pet supplements since 2013, still small enough to have their own vets and nutritionists on hand rather than a faceless factory line, and this is their take on omega-3 done at the source, straight from the algae fish get their own omega-3s from.
Each bottle is highly concentrated (560mg/g combined EPA and DHA) and properly fresh, with a TOTOX score of 4, well under the level where an oil starts to age. There's no fishy smell or aftertaste, which suits fussy eaters just as well as dogs with a fish allergy or intolerance, something more owners seem to be running into these days. The only other ingredient is a touch of vitamin E from sunflower oil, there simply to keep the oil fresh, nothing else added. Alongside its job as a fish oil alternative, a daily omega-3 top-up like this can help keep skin and coat in good general condition over time.
It comes as a 50ml dropper bottle, dosed at 20 drops per 10kg of dog and added straight to their food once a day. Give the bottle a shake before use. Some natural settling at the bottom is normal for an oil like this, not a fault.
