Old Trail Daily Chew

Two active ingredients, both with dog trials behind them. 900 mg of EPA and DHA in every chew, one chew for every 25 pounds of dog. Sixty chews in a bag.

$22.50 to $90a month on the plan, set by her weight

A bag is $45 and holds 60 chews. A 50 pound dog eats 2 a day, so one bag is one month for her and she costs $45 a month. A 70 pound dog eats 3 a day and costs $67.50 a month. The cost for every weight is printed below.

What is in one chew

Two active ingredients with their own amounts, and a short base list that makes the chew soft and worth eating. No glucosamine, no chondroitin, no added sugar.

In one chewAmount in one chew
Fish oil, anchovy and sardine, whole oil1,800 mg
   of which EPA550 mg
   of which DHA350 mg
   EPA and DHA together900 mg
Green-lipped mussel powder, Perna canaliculus400 mg

The 1,800 mg in this table is whole fish oil in one chew. The 1,800 mg in the next table is EPA and DHA over a whole day for a 50 pound dog. The two numbers match by accident and they count different things.

The base

Hydrolyzed chicken liver, oat flour, vegetable glycerin, sunflower lecithin, rosemary extract. That is the whole list.

How many chews a day

Your dogChews a dayEPA and DHA a day, not whole oil
Up to 25 lb1900 mg
26 to 50 lb21,800 mg
51 to 75 lb32,700 mg
76 lb and over43,600 mg

Colorado State University publishes a fish oil dosing chart for dogs, and its top figure for a 50 pound dog is 3,227 milligrams of EPA and DHA a day. The chart says the top figure does not suit every dog and that a quarter of it is the place to start. Two chews put a 50 pound dog at 1,800 milligrams, between those two marks. Show the row above to your vet and let her move it.

Give them with a meal. Write the start date on the bag, because the fats need about eight weeks to be built into cell membranes and you will want to know when the clock started.

What a month comes to at her weight

A bag is $45 on the monthly plan, every time. What changes is how fast she eats one, so here is the whole thing in one place. A month below is thirty days.

Her weightChews a dayOne bag lastsA month costs
Up to 25 lb160 days$22.50
26 to 50 lb230 days$45
51 to 75 lb320 days$67.50
76 lb and over415 days$90

The plan ships to match. A 20 pound dog gets one bag every two months. A 70 pound dog gets three bags every two months. You are billed for the bags that ship and nothing else.

Nothing to pay for shipping while the plan runs.

Is this medicine?

No. It is food for dogs. It does not diagnose anything and it does not treat anything. If your dog is uncomfortable, the vet goes first.

Can she take it with what the vet already gave her?

The table near the top of this page lists each ingredient with its amount. Take it to your vet and let her make the call.

Why is there no glucosamine in it?

A 2012 systematic review in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine found the evidence for glucosamine and chondroitin in dogs thin, and the omega-3 evidence stronger. The bag follows the review.

What if she will not eat it?

Then she has told you it is not for her. Send it back inside ninety days and the money goes back.

Why does the price change with her weight?

Because a bigger dog eats more chews. The bag is $45 either way. A 50 pound dog eats 2 a day and one bag covers her month. A 70 pound dog eats 3 a day and goes through a bag in 20 days, which comes to $67.50 a month. The table above prints every weight.

How do I cancel?

Open your account, press stop, and it is done. Nobody has to be talked to and nothing has to be written.

Where is it made?

Made and bagged in Montana. The batch code on the back matches a record kept for two years.
