Hi there! Yes, it's find to give a daily supplement of salmon oil to Joey if you wish - this can help to promote healthy skin and joints, and most dogs also enjoy the taste :) Once daily on his food is fine. Different brands of salmon oil have different concentrations, so I can't say how much you should give without being able to see the label of the product you have. If it's a veterinary products, there should be instructions on the label for how much to give each day, depending on Joey's weight.
