T.O. or Ifex?

Posted : 11/8/2006 9:28:38 PM

I want to get Ella some Salmon oil.
These are the two that I'm torn between.
Ifex claims that the oil needs to be used within 30 days of purchasing it and it's cheaper than T.O.'s.
But I trust T.O.'s products.

Which should I get?

Look, I know you all are into that Purina thread, but I sincerely would appreciate ANY help in this decision. So, please, take a break from all your bickering and point making and PLEASE assist a friend, k?
Thanks[

From everything I have heard you can't go wrong with TO

I use Ifex for several products and I'm REALLY happy with everything. The salmon oil had a MUCH stronger smell than the Grizzly I was using, and the dogs turned up their noses at it at first, but after a couple of days they started lapping it up. As far as I know Ifex is the only oil that publishes its purity reports. The company is great, they have great customer service and I trust anything from them.

Yeah, I have a bad habit of asking questions before I actually do some looking.

Shipping can get awfully high. I just ordered a couple of Christmas gifts and got "free shipping" but ad to pay $3 handling fee. When it arrived yesterday tehey were in one of small bubble packages that easily fit into my small mailbox. I have seen things i would love to order (on sale) but shipping was gonna cost more than the item.

FWIW, I bought a 32 oz bottle of fish oil from them months ago. It's still fine, as far as I can tell.

i was just looking at onlynaturalpet.com and their brand of salmon oil seems like it might be re-branded iceland pure. i checked the shipping on the 32 oz. bottle and it is about 1/2 of iceland pure's shipping (but it is calculated depending on where you live).

I've ordered throught Only Natural Pet before, and contacted them with questions about products, and have been very satisfied with their service.

Rebecca…I have only tried the TO, but I have to say that it is probably the freshest smelling fish oil I have ever smelled. JJ, Pru and the cats all eat it with no problems.

I haven#%92t tried the Ifex so I can#%92t really compare the two…just can comment on what I have tried.
