I feed my baby Buffalo Blue and Buffalo Blue Health Bars. Well, lo and behold, the company is changing their packaging for the Health Bars and we have not been able to buy them for over a month now. I recently purchased a treat from Petsmart, Vital Life. She loves them. She has had the chicken treats and this time I bought the chicken wrapped bananas. I read the ingredients and it is chicken, bananas and coconut oil. I have done some reading on the benefits of the oil to dogs but am wondering if anyone else has given their pets this oil and what effects have you noticed?

As long as the coconut oil is pure and non-hydrogenated, (which produces trans fats) it has been shown to have great benefits for skin, coat, and all types of disease deterrence. I would read your labels carefully to make sure it's 100% virgin coconut oil.
Good luck!
