Do you think the blend wheat germ oil is good enough for dogs? Or would u recommend the pure wheat germ oil?
Pure

Blended with Soy Oil to provide a more economical option

pure is always better, but its expensive as hell.... (usually). i use the "pure" stuff as it believe it has a higher content of vitamin E. however, the blend would be better than using nothing.... so if price is the deal breaker, go with the blend.

Would never blend with Soy Oil ...
Also, your links are bad.
What is the price/gallon for the cheap stuff?

$200/1gal? That's impossible. lol
Pure is $35 plus shipping = $42.95/gal total
Shipping is the same for either. Blend is $14 plus shipping = $21.95/gal total
Many think they're getting wheat germ oil for cheap but not realizing(Reading) it's the blended not pure.
So my question is will the blend be good enough:question:

I would go pure.
First of all, you don't want to use Soy.
Second, if you buy pure just use half as much, and it's the same thing, and (now) half the price.
In other words, if you're giving 1 oz of "mixed" you're actually only giving 0.5 oz of wheat germ oil.
Why not just buy pure, NOT give any soy, and just give 0.5 oz pure?
It's the same amount of wheat germ, basically, for roughly the same price ... you're just not dumping filler oil in there.

Thank you for your time and reply Jack. Love that idea, this case will rest at peace now.
I get Pure wheat germ oil for $13/gallon at a feed store. MayBe I need to stock up and resale.

I was checking out jacks posted link and came across the emu oil. Sounds exotic... lol, any thoughts on what that may bring to the table vs the salmon oil?

Needs to be refrigerated to maintain freshness....the oil comes in dark brown glass bottle. Their Rex brand is for horses, dogs etc...WholeFoods carries it in the refrigerated oil aisle..
