This photo popped up in my iPhone memories, and it’s from the time I thought I saw a dog on the side of the road. So of course, me being me, I pulled over to help it with absolutely no hesitation.

As my car gets closer… it stands up.
It’s a whole bear. 🐻

I swear I’m not an idiot 🙈 From far away he genuinely looked like a dog (he was hunched over in tall grass). Also, some would argue my big black dog, Luna, already looks like a bear, so I’m just used to large dogs.

Anyhoo, he immediately took off running, probably thinking “what is wrong with this woman,” while the car behind me witnessed the entire thing and now probably thinks some random woman just tried to steal a bear.

Side note before anyone panics: I know better than to bother or disturb wildlife. The bear was not injured, and by the time I realized he was very much not a dog, he ran off.

But every so often, my iPhone photo library humbles me by reminding me of this memory. And the fact that my instinct to rescue animals is still absolutely unhinged. My time working with wildlife in South Africa has made me far less scared of things than I probably should be.

Snowed in, roads iced, nothing’s open… and meanwhile the dogs are like “wow, finally some peace and quiet.” I’m over here stressed about the snowstorm and they’re acting like this is a luxury retreat. I keep thinking “poor dogs, they can’t really go out today” but honestly… I’m pretty sure they’re thriving 😂

‼️If you feed this to your dog, you’re feeding harmful compounds like lipid peroxides and free radicals that increase inflammation, create oxidative stress in the body, damage cells and DNA, and put extra strain on the liver, which in dogs can lead to digestive upset, worsened skin and allergy issues, immune problems, and added stress on aging dogs or dogs with inflammatory conditions like pancreatitis.

High quality fish oil is normally sold in dark or opaque bottles, flushed with nitrogen to remove oxygen, protected with antioxidants like vitamin E, sometimes refrigerated, and often dispensed through airless pump systems. This packaging does none of that! When fish oil is stored in a clear jar with a wide opening, it is constantly exposed to light and oxygen, meaning the oil begins oxidizing during bottling, continues degrading during storage and shipping, and gets worse every time the jar is opened, so it’s likely already damaged before you ever feed it. Oxidized fish oil doesn’t just “lose its benefits” it turns into harmful compounds that can seriously cause harm to your dog!

Eventually this product will develop a foul smell, but because fish oil can be significantly oxidized long before it develops a strong odor, dogs will likely stilll eat it willingly. So you have no way of knowing it’s oxidized.

On top of that, salmon is not an ideal source of fish oil because it is a larger, longer living fish higher on the food chain, which means it is more likely to accumulate heavy metals and environmental toxins such as mercury and lead, especially when the oil is not rigorously purified. Safer omega-3 oils come from smaller, short-lived fish like anchovies or sardines, or from krill oil, which is naturally more stable and lower in contaminants.

No matter the brand’s intention, packaging fish oil this way guarantees poor quality because it offers no protection from oxidation, no control over proper dosing, and no way for consumers to know if the oil is fresh. Feeding this product can increase inflammation and harm the long-term health of your dog!
