Transition Instructions
When first introducing your pet to Nulo, we recommend slowly transitioning over the course of 5 to 7 days to reduce the risk of digestive upset that can occur with a rapid change in diet. We recommend portioning 25% of the new food on the first day mixed with 75% of the former food. Over the course of several days, gradually increase this ratio until you are feeding 100% of the new food. This will allow your pet's digestive system time to adjust to any new ingredients and will help to ensure a smooth transition. Mixing up proteins can be a great way to provide variety to your pet's diet. Once your pet has transitioned to the Nulo platform, rotating between recipes is generally seamless!
These protein-rich diets have proteins from animal sources as the first 3-4 ingredients. Low-carb and low-glycemic ingredients provide stable energy levels, while the proprietary GanedenBC30 probiotic aids digestive and immune health. Plus, they’re made without pea protein, white potatoes, corn, tapioca, wheat or soy.
Raising the Bar on What’s in Their Bowl
From their careful selection of ingredients—like protein-rich turkey, lamb, salmon, chicken, beef and duck—to low-glycemic carb source choices like lentils, chickpeas, barley, oat, millet and sweet potatoes, Nulo approaches pet food the way they approach everything—no shortcuts allowed.
(Nu)trition + (Lo)ve
Nutrition and love are at the core of everything Nulo does. That is why they only use the finest ingredients to craft their high-meat, low-carb recipes. So go ahead and show your pet some love with the wholesome nutrition of Nulo foods.
Healthier Together
Since day one, Nulo has been committed to inspiring pet parents to live healthier together with their pets. That starts with nutrition—animal-based proteins for muscle, low carbs for a healthy weight, and probiotics for immune support are just a few of the ways each recipe provides your pet with a healthy start at every meal. So whatever the day brings, from a big stretch to endless fetch, your best friend will be ready!
What’s the Secret? Real Food!
The team at Nulo believes that keeping pets healthy is a way of life. That’s why their formulas are full of everything pets need and nothing they don’t. The secret in every Nulo recipe is real food you can feel good about feeding.

What is the carb percentage?
Answer by • Jul 11, 2019
The carbohydrates content is approximately 38 %.
Where does the salmon come from? Is it wild caught or farm raised
Answer by • Jul 18, 2022
Nulo uses wild-caught salmon from both Pacific and Atlantic waters (regions can vary based on the migratory path of the wild population), and includes a variety of species: Chinook (King), Chum (Keta), Humpy (Pink), Sockeye (Red), Coho (Silver), and Alaskan. As part of an intensive quality control program, the fish ingredients are tested for potential contaminants including heavy metals like mercury, to ensure that they are safe. Nulo also requires that the fish is sourced naturally-preserved without the use of ethoxyquin. A certificate of analysis (COA) is required to accompany every ingredient upon arrival to the pet food kitchen to ensure that it meets strict requirements for nutrient and microbiological analysis before being used.
My Frankie has been on Nulo for a while. He likes the food. But instead of lugging around a bag at a local pet store. I ordered on Chewy. It was perfect!!

NULO DRY DOG FOOD
THIS IS THE ONLY FOOD HE WILL EAT, BUT, HE IS ONLY 13 POUNDS (SMALL BREED) AND THIS 14 POUND BAG WILL LAST ABOUT A YEAR. SMALL BREED SHOULD BE A CLUE TO CARRY SMALLER BAGS OF THIS FOOD.

Sadly this was a full stop...NO
I thought I had recently found my baby his permanent kibble. I was sure he loved it. He's a very picky eater and right now, has no interested in any food. He has anxiety about everything which affects his confidence in eating too. So I wanted to try this kibble as a backup since I read that you should alternate. Maybe I did this too soon. My fault. He didn't like it at all, meaning he sniffed and that was enough for him to say No Thanks. I addition to the kibble I thought he loved, I know have this bag. Both bags are going to a shelter but I'm disappointed because although he's not wasting away yet, I fear he will soon. I've recently found a vet and I pray they can help Maxx. The thought of rehoming him (I love him so much) has come up but I want to try everything I within my power before I decide to go that route.
I can't recommend this because Maxx simply didn't give it a chance. Maybe the smell but I don't know for sure.
