This is the power lickable — packed with omega-3s from sardines and digestive fibre from pumpkin. It's not the prettiest thing you'll ever make, but dogs go absolutely bonkers for the fishy flavour. Spread it on a lick mat and your dog won't move until every last smear is gone. It's particularly good for dogs with dry skin or dull coats.
