Benny’s Special Fur Growth Meds

Free Form Fatty Acid

I posted last week about Benny's impressive fur growth spurt after we started him on some new meds. Here is more information on the magic little pills that we started him on:

Free Form Snip Tips
A Free Form Fatty Acid offering maximum potency of EPA and DHA.
Omega-3's for Small Dogs and Cats

We purchased these from our vet. I believe they were sold as a supplement and a prescription was not required. They have worked wonders for Benjamin for his fur issues. Take a look at his fur patch now (and Luna photobombing the shot).

As with anything, talk to your vet about these before you start giving them to your pug.

Holding Down the Couch

Henry

I think we can officially call this cushion on the sofa Henry's. If I am ever looking for him, this is the first place I check. It's a comfy spot with pillows and a great view out the front door. What more could a pug want?

Luna’s Vice

Luna is a very good girl, but she has had one bad habit ever since we adopted her - digging through the trash. Christmas comes twice a week for this little girl! Take a look at her in action.

Growth Spurt

Remember the patch that Benny had shaved on his back when he had a CT scan in Feb of this year? Well, Benny has had almost no fur growth in that spot since it has been shaved. We had pretty much given up hope that Benny's fur would grow back at all. But right before we went to Maryland, we started the pugs on Free Form fatty acids with omega 3s and fish oil to help with their skin and coat. To be honest, I didn't think the supplements would do anything for the pugs. They were on fish oil before and it did nothing for them. If anything I was hesitant to even start them because I suspected the fish oil upset their stomach before.

Despite my concerns we started giving the pugs the supplements and BOOM Benny had a major fur grown spurt on the patch on his back! Take a look at the difference.

What's amazing is all this fur growth happened in about a span of 2 weeks! Go Benny!

Too Much Vacation

Benjamin, Henry and Luna

Benjamin, Henry and Luna had a great time on their trip, but once we were back home they were exhausted! This was the sight when we took them to go potty. Instead of doing their business, they all just sat down for a little rest in the warm FL sunshine. I felt the same way and if the neighbors wouldn't have thought it weird, I would have laid right down with them. wink
