I would avoid feeding any type of fish food to your dog. It could cause GI upset and skin issues. It may also cause him to not want to eat his regular diet. If he was given a piece every once in a while it is probably safe but I wouldn’t do much more than this.

They may be stressed from the trip, the water may be too cold (low temps can affect appetite in fish) or the water chemistry may be off. Consider a partial water change. Use only conditioned water that is temperature matched to prevent further stress or shock. The fish food is fine. They will likely eat it once conditions are corrected and they settle down.

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! I do not recommend adding a calcium supplement to puppy food it can affect bone growth significantly in a puppy. I recommend stopping that immediately unless directed by your Vet. As for the fish oil, that is fine but how often depends on the brand you are using. Most fish oils have instructions on the bottle and are once daily. If you want to post a picture of the fish oil with the label we can try to help. I like Omega Benefits by VRS: http://vrshealth.com/canine-products/omegadog/ I hope this helps and have a great day!

Hello. You can definitely feed the fish parts, but make sure they are thoroughly cooked to prevent the transfer of parasites or bacteria to your dogs. After cooking ( whatever method you prefer ), you can feed all parts if they are rather soft. Any sharp bones, scales or body part to tough for you to chew should either be discarded or ground up. High levels of omega fatty acids from fish are always a great supplement to any diet, especially a cancer diet. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Hi, and thanks for your question. Begin by submitting a water sample for quality testing. Most pet stores will do this for free or a nominal fee. Clinical examination should always include a water quality check, even if you have done so already. Water testing should be performed with a quality test kit, measuring NH4, NO2 and NO3. High ammonia levels, PH imbalances may be responsible for these signs. Oxygen concentration and quality of the filters should be determined as well. If water quality is good and there are no major imbalances, your fish should get examined to look for any sign of bacterial/fungal infection and eventually water should be treated. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
