WHY YOU (AND YOUR CAVALIER) NEED THIS COCONUT OIL!

We use and review a lot of products for our dogs and puppies but this one is a MUST HAVE. While you can use your own coconut oil for your dog, we prefer this brand because the label helps us distinguish the tub of oil we use on our pets versus the one we use in our kitchen versus the one we use for personal beauty. If you aren't familiar with all the uses for coconut oil on your dog, please find below our top 10 favorites. Feel free to comment with other uses you have discovered!
10) Adds shine to the coat. Melt a small amount of oil in your hands - skim over your dogs coat (like you would apply a light hair oil to human hair) and watch it shine.

9) A safe moisturizer that your dog can lick! Great for dry or cracked paw pads and hot rough elbows, etc. 

8) Relieve itching and hot spots. It's rare for even the itchiest dog to have sensitivity to coconut oil so you can apply it to hot spots or other raw areas created from allergies. 

7) Add up to 2 tablespoons (less for a puppy) to your dogs diet to help with digestive issues and increase immunity. Start with 1/2 tablespoon and increase gradually to avoid upsetting your dog's stomach. 

6) A small dab of oil on your fingers will help ease eye boogers and other gross  clumps of goo (think dried puppy poop) off your pup. 

5) Add some oil to grooming gloves to increase shine, reduce shedding and reduce dandruff. 

4) Add a small amount to puppies food to improve brain health - it's loaded with Omega and Fatty Acids! Start with a very small amount (just enough to lightly coat food). 

3) Rub the oil into matted hair to help work out the tangle before resorting to scissors. 

2) It freshens breath - the antibacterial properties and great taste make it a substitute for dogs who hate toothpaste but can also help freshen breath when simply added to food. 

1) Perfect suture solution - for our females that have c-sections, raw nipples or other issues related to raising a litter of puppies, coconut oil is a lifesaver to relieve itching from sutures or dry nipples form nursing with no concerns if the puppies (or mom) ingest the oil!
