Is it okay to split my dog's Cosequin and fish oil supplement doses?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Airedale Terrier | Male | neutered | 85 lbs

My 12 yr. old dog is 75 lbs. I'm giving him Cosequin and fish oil caps. Cosequin label says 3 a day. Should I break those up into 2 doses, am and pm? Should I do the same for 3 fish oil caps?

Hi there. You can divide Porter's daily dose and give half in the morning and half at night, or just give it all once a day - it doesn't make any difference medically, so it's a matter of convenience and personal preference for you :)
