Combination Feeding: If feeding with wet food, reduce dry amount fed by 1/2 cup, for every 6 oz of wet food.
This food is formulated for adult, non-reproducing dogs over one year old as puppies and pregnant or nursing mothers have special nutritional requirements. It is important to slowly transition your dog from his/her current diet as it takes a few days for the body to adapt to new nutrient levels. To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5 - 7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness® each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness® CORE® by day 7.
CORE is highly palatable so your dog may tend to eat more of this food. Watch initially to see if you need to adjust regular eating patterns. Give your dog access to clean, cool fresh water at all times and feed Wellness® CORE® wet food in combination whenever possible, to increase the level of water in your dog's diet. Nutrition is the foundation of wellbeing, but be sure to give your dog plenty of love, exercise and see your veterinarian regularly!

Bowl licking good
By Lisa on Mar 28, 2021
My 2 Aussies have been eating CORE Grain Free Turkey for about 4 years now. I never have to ask twice if they are ready to eat, and they lick their bowls clean, then they each lick the other's bowl just in case there is a crumb missed. They never get tired of it so I am really glad that this brand is good for them.

Great, natural premium food - Dog loves!
By JR2831 on Jan 4, 2021
Began feeding my dog this food in August. At the time, she was experiencing intermittent seizures that we were getting checked out. One month later, we realized that she had not had a seizure since changing to this food. We had been giving her a Store brand. It has now been 4 months, seizure free. She loves the food and I feel good that she is getting premium ingredients and also is better for her health.

Perfect!!!!!

My little dog is allergic to gluten/grains and itches so bad after eating it. This dog food helped him so much and his sores are healing! I will never change his dog food again.

Not for toy breeds
By Jessica on Feb 11, 2021
It said small bite on the listing so i purchased this for my 3lbs pomeranian. The pieces were too big for him and i had to soak it in warm water. Once i soaked it he would eat it. But over all he wasnt excited for it.

The dog approves!

Unhappy Lab
By Labmom on Dec 12, 2020
I bought this because our previous Lab used to eat it and he liked it. The Lab we have now is a picky eater and he’s just not liking this food at all. I’ve mixed it with his previous food to ease him into the transition, and that didn’t work. I’ve been adding special treats on top to try and entice him, but he picks around and eats the stuff he likes and leaves the dry food. This is such a good quality dog food and I’m so upset that he doesn’t like it.

Finally!!!
By Mitch on Nov 22, 2020
We’ve been through the list of top 10 foods with our boys (e.g., Orijen, Acana, Merrick, etc.) but we always had to add fresh grilled chicken, bacon, or steak to their meal just to get them to eat the kibble. Finally we found a food they will eat without bribery!!! Tonight was the trial run and they ate it straight out of the bag!!! This brand might not be as highly rated as Orijen, but it doesn’t make sense to feed them something they don’t like.

Wellness Core *****
By WellnessCORE on Feb 4, 2021
I had to change my picky boxer's food from chicken to turkey.... So far she loves this. She was turning her nose up before, now she eats this right away.

Great Food! Dogs love it and I love a sale
By TurkeyJerkey on Dec 30, 2020
Wellness is a great food and I took advantage of the sale Chewy had to give my dogs a treat. The regular cost is quite high - could by fresh, raw food for this price - but my dogs like it and it's a treat. Ring in 2021!

Happy Simon
By Simon on Dec 12, 2020
Our dog defies published recommendations. He has never eaten a food described less than 4 stars. He easily moves from one to another without side effects. His health is perfect. His stools are consistent. Only apparent boredom moves him to something else.
