How is this oil typically used- sprayed over dry dog food?

This bottle comes with a pump applicator. The number of pumps used on food is determined by your dogs' weight. I just put my dogs' food (mixture of dry with other) into their bowls and pump two squirts on each and mix. My dogs are all over 70 pounds, so I use morning and night. They love it and I've noticed my one dog who gets itchy hasn't been so itchy and they all have shiny coats.

It squirts out of a nozzle so we mix it in with kibble or just put some in a bowl or something,Canines love it!

It pumps a stream of oil out on the food. Kind of like hand lotion. So handy. I believe it's one pump per twenty pounds of dog weight. It doesn't need to be refrigerated.

The package says "care should be used when making applications to avoid household pets, particularly fish and reptiles." I have a dog and I just make sure he's not around until it dries.

It's 100% pure Emu oil. It's got .00022% Vita E so it won't go rancid.. IF you're good in MATH, that's about as pure as you can get. :&gt;)

No, we just leave it with the food for an easy reminder. It's a really good product and our dog with skin issues gobbles up his food with the oil on it.

I am not sure but the lube is kind of thin which i guess is ok. I recommend contacting the company an out pets.

The container gives proper instructions. About 2 tablespoons over dry dog food per meal.

Just like any other vegetable oil. Best to keep it in a cool and dark area. Will rancid after a few months, you will know when it happens by the smell.

I've used olive oil spray and never had any issues with the food baking. Clean up is easy and the pan still looks great.

Well...this is not a dry product it just doesn't have to be washed out/off. It's an ok product especially between baths to refresh the pooch. Hope this helps!!

Never use any oil containing corn or canola oil. Over time, these oils form a sticky substance when combined with heat, that is impossible to remove. Most spray on oils contain corn or canola oil, so you should use only spray olive oil, which is widely available. It's also important to bring your pan to up to the heat you're going to cook with before you spray any oil on it. All nonstick surfaces lose their release value to some degree over time, but avoiding those oils will greatly elongate the life of the surface. If you picture the nonstick coating as micro hills and valleys, what happens in time is that the valleys fill with matter, not allowing the food to "float" on top of the hills, so it's important to keep the valleys unclogged. Now that the release value has begun to fail, there's not a great deal you can do, except to keep it very clean after each use and do not any longer use the worst offenders in oils. Hope this helps! (PS-I sold kitchenware for twenty years, which is how I know this and LOVE the Emeril nonstick pans, made by All Clad.

I've read that some people have used a few drops of olive oil. However, I haven't tried it myself.

My machine is used daily. Do not have this problem. Very little cooking oil is used to lubricate, one drop or less.

I lightly wet the dry cat food so that it sticks to the food. Hope this helps!

I was instructed to do that with any dry food when my dog was a puppy, specially because he has a tendency to not drink a lot of water, so that was a good way of keeping him from dehydration. My dog is 3 years old but I still keep doing that. What I do is add boiled water to the dry food (not only this Merrick one but all other brands that I use), then I wait until it cools down and serve it to my dog. He loves his food like that!

I would not. It's best to put with your pet's food because it is flake consistency. I sprinkle it over my dogs dry food. If your pet is picky or a free feeder try mixing it in a small amount of wet food and giving it as a treat. Hope this helps.

Hello there! The product has a decidedly peppery smell, very strong. Unless your dog actually came into contact with an amount it could ingest I doubt it would hurt them. If you are spraying it on surfaces where it will evaporate and dry there is no way it will do any harm. Best of luck!
