Read articleShampoos and basic fish oils did not change the flaking or the dull coat. It is not your fault. Skin and coat health starts inside.
The best dog skin and coat supplements combine Omega 3 DHA, probiotics and antioxidants, because coat quality depends on what the gut can absorb. Surface products can only do so much if the nutrients never reach the skin cells. Feed the gut first and the coat follows.

A dull, flaky or shedding coat is usually a nutrition and absorption story before it is a skin story. Here is what to check, and what actually feeds a coat.
A dull or coarse coat, dandruff-like flakes, dry skin, shedding that never seems to stop, slow regrowth after clipping, and a greasy or doggy smell between baths.
Hair is mostly protein, so a complete diet comes first. On top of that, omega-3 DHA supports the skin barrier and shine, vitamin E protects skin cells from oxidative stress, and the B vitamins, biotin among them, support skin and hair renewal.
Juno Daily gives 100mg algae-sourced omega-3 DHA, 10mg vitamin E and natural B vitamins from brewer's yeast per scoop, with 500mg spirulina for antioxidants.
A coat can only use the nutrients the gut absorbs. That is why Juno Daily pairs its skin nutrients with a Tribiotic Gut Complex of prebiotics, a probiotic and postbiotics, so more of each scoop reaches the skin.
Most dogs moult more in spring and autumn, and double-coated breeds can shed heavily. Central heating dries skin out in winter. Regular brushing, a good diet and steady omega-3 all help, but no supplement stops normal shedding.
Hair grows in cycles, so a new coat takes time to come through. Many owners notice softer fur and less flaking from around six weeks, and fuller shine by eight. Judge it after 60 days of daily use.
Patchy hair loss, bald spots, sores, a sudden change in the coat, or heavy flaking with itching. Hormone problems such as an underactive thyroid can show in the coat first, so these need a check rather than a supplement.
Vitamin E protects skin cells from oxidative stress, and the B vitamins, biotin among them, support skin and hair renewal. Omega-3 DHA is not a vitamin, but it matters just as much for the skin barrier. Juno Daily provides 10mg vitamin E, natural B vitamins from brewer's yeast and 100mg omega-3 DHA per scoop. Never use human vitamin products, which can contain ingredients unsafe for dogs.
For skin support, a complete supplement covers more than salmon oil alone. Standard liquid fish oil may add temporary coat shine but oxidises quickly and is poorly absorbed when the gut lining is compromised. Juno Daily supports the digestive tract first for better absorption, then delivers premium algae-sourced Omega-3 DHA, a cleaner and more stable source of essential fatty acids than basic salmon oil.
Hair grows in cycles, so a new coat takes time to come through. Many owners notice softer fur and less flaking from around six weeks, with fuller shine by eight. Give it at least 60 days of daily use to judge.
Yes. Juno Daily combines gut, skin, joint and immune support in one daily scoop, so you do not need separate chews, probiotics, fish oils and joint tablets. One product covers the basics, saving the expense of buying five separate bottles.
Most dogs accept it easily. We use natural flavour vectors that dogs inherently crave, and the pure powder mixes seamlessly into wet food, raw diets or moistened kibble without the artificial smell of processed treats. If your dog remains sceptical, our Fussy Dog Guarantee covers you. Email us for a full refund if they will not eat it.
Yes. While all dogs shed naturally, excessive hair loss and white flakes often signal poor nutrient absorption and skin dehydration. Postbiotics support the gut lining so your dog absorbs the vitamins needed for healthy hair follicles. The full dose of algae-sourced Omega-3 then supports skin moisture from within and a healthy skin barrier.
By supporting absorption first. A dull, brittle coat usually means vital nutrients are lost during digestion. B vitamins, Vitamin E and essential fatty acids never reach the skin cells. Once the gut is primed, Juno's active blend travels directly to skin cells, supporting healthy hair growth and coat shine.
It can play a part. A persistent musty smell or greasy skin can have several causes, including yeast, so see your vet to find the cause. Prebiotics and probiotics support a balanced gut microbiome, which is one part of healthy skin.
No. Our powder is shelf-stable thanks to specialised moisture-lock packaging. Just keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry cupboard. No fridge required.
Because many commercial skin chews contain binders and fillers alongside the actives. Juno Daily was developed by Dr Rebecca Massie MRCVS, a practising UK veterinarian, to support the gut-skin connection first. This vet-formulated powder is 100% active ingredients, with no fillers.
The common causes are a diet low in usable fats, poor absorption in the gut, dry winter air from central heating, frequent bathing, and age. Hormone problems such as an underactive thyroid can also show in the coat, so a sudden change, or hair loss in patches, needs a vet check.
Sometimes. White flakes often mean dry skin, which can come from low omega-3 intake, dry air or frequent bathing. Mites can also cause scaling, especially along the back, so ask your vet if the flakes are heavy or your dog is itchy too. Daily omega-3 DHA and vitamin E support skin moisture from within.
Itchy skin often goes hand in hand with digestive issues and joint stiffness. Explore our vet-formulated dog gut health supplements and dog joint & mobility supplements.
