Fish oil - Omega 3's are broken down into two acids EPA an DHA. The ideal dose of fish oil targets the EPA. Take the dog's weight x 20 = target daily EPA dose. Ex: If you have a 50 lb dog, your daily EPA dose is 1000.
Vitamin E - You can safely give 200-400 mg daily. E is a fat soluble vitamin, so I wouldn't go over 400 mg daily. **Note here on vitamin e...there is natural and synthetic. The natural will say d-alpha tocopherols. Synthetic will say dl-alpha tocopherols (the synthetic form is usually made from petroleum, refined oils, turpentine, sugar, and artificial preservatives). The natural "d" form is the only one the body recognizes.
