Always discuss medications (over-the-counter or prescribed) with your veterinarian before administering. If your vet is ok with you giving the fish oil, they should tell you a dose, whether it's following the instructions on the bottle or a certain amount in milligrams (mg) or milliliters (ml).
It depends how much your dog weighs, and how much EPA is in the fish oil!
Similar to Kristen's response - always check with your Vet before giving any supplement to your pet's diet. This is because the amount of oil depends on your dog's weight. That being said, I give my 25 pound Corgi Mix one full pump of Grizzly's Salmon Oil with each meal and it makes his white coat nice and shiny.
