Wellness CORE Grain-Free Reduced Fat Turkey & Chicken Recipe Dry Dog Food

My 9½-year-old Shiba Inu eats this reduced-fat dry food by Wellness Core with equally extreme gusto after I gradually switched her from Whole Earth Farms Grain-Free Healthy Weight Dry Dog Food, but she happily wolfs down just about anything chewable, so I can't tell which one she likes better. To me, they are similar in appearance, but DogFoodAdvisor.com gives Wellness Core a higher recommendation. Comparing the two, the difference in caloric content is negligible, while the list of ingredients looks great for both with maybe a slight edge for Wellness Core. What I personally like most about Wellness Core is the bag (in the 26-pound size), which is the best one I've seen among the handful My 9½-year-old Shiba Inu eats this reduced-fat dry food by Wellness Core with equally extreme gusto after I gradually switched her from Whole Earth Farms Grain-Free Healthy Weight Dry Dog Food, but she happily wolfs down just about anything chewable, so I can't tell which one she likes better.

What I personally like most about Wellness Core is the bag (in the 26-pound size), which is the best one I've seen among the handful of highly rated dry dog foods that we've tried. It's a heavy-duty bag that appears to be vapor-proof to block moisture from the food, and it has a well-made heavy-duty Ziploc-style closure that I've not seen on any other dog-food bags. Since I adopted her 1½ year ago, my butterball has lost 5 pounds off her original wide load of 30½. Hopefully, this Wellness CORE Reduced-Fat Dry Dog Food along with Nutro Ultra Weight-Management Canned Dog Food (her favorite) will help her to eventually lose another 5 pounds, which would bring her satisfyingly close to the AKC standard for weight in the high teens on a female Shiba Inu of her height, just like my prior female Shiba Inu. … more

Have been feeding my 92 lb. American Bully Wellness Core GF reduced fat for about 8 weeks. I searched out this particular food upon the recommendation for weight reduction and maintenance. My dog absolutely loves this food; the only problem is that not only has she not lost any weight but has gained almost a pound. I am monitoring her feed completely; feeding a very small amount in the a.m. and a little more w/ several Tbs of canned weight reduction food at dinner. She gets very, very limited treats and has exercise. I will continue to use this particular food and hope for the best. If I have to change it, I will choose another from Chewy....you are the GREATEST!!!!! Thank you.

I have two bischon fries mixes, one is diabetic and blind, both are very picky!!!!! Simon has to eat a low fat, grain free, high fiber food for his diabetes and I really like the ingredients that Wellness Core has in it so I ordered a bag and both of them went nuts for it. Of course it is topped with a small container of lil plates from Merrick and it is all gone in a matter of seconds. I am now ready to order the largest bag they have since I know for sure that they are happy with this food. I love Chewy and all the customer service workers. I order everything from Chewy from Seresto flea collars to food to grain free treats which my boys also love

At first he wouldn't eat it until I add cooked carrots or cooked green beans, I add to his Wellness CORE Grain-Free Reduced Fat Turkey & Chicken Recipe Dry Dog Food, add just a little water. He gets 1/4 of a cup twice a day with his vegetables. All in a sudden he like his food moist. My baby (toy poodle) is 4lbs over weight. His Doctor was upset, try to put him on that Prescription Diet, very expensive, would not eat it. For a 9.5 Lb bag it would cost me $41.00, Wellness Core Reduce fat is $14.15 for a 4lb bag, do the math!!! I can get 3 bags for that amount and see his weight reduction on this...

I have two very small dogs. One is overweight and one is underweight, but believe it or not this food has been very helpful with both. My underweight dog is given extra helpings with inducements like a little broth or an egg etc (approved by my vet). My overweight dog is given as per instructions for weight loss on back of bag. There was a LOT of extra gassiness at first even with a slow transition from their old food, but it finally tapered off (THANKFULLY!! Lol) Dogs seem to like the taste as much or better than their old food of the same brand.

Bought the small bag as my dog needs to reduce weight and still mixed with the previous food. I noticed a difference. I bought the big bag and still mixing it and he seems to have lost interest in the food. It's expensive I'll still use it though, continue to mix with other food. This is a top rated dog food for weight reduction as I did research on this to get my dog the best. I'm not disappointed that i bought it, but when the other dog food is gone I don't think he will just eat this food on it's own. But, who likes diet food :)

As someone who works at an animal hospital, I tried the prescription weight loss food that I was able to buy with my employee discount at work. Not only did my dogs dislike the food, but I did not notice a difference in my dogs' weight nor their slightly elevated pancreatic values. I switched over to Wellness Core Reduced Fat, and not only have both of them lost weight and kept it off, but their pancreatic values decreased, and their coats look much softer and shinier. Most importantly, they love the food. I am more than willing to spend more on this food considering the results have more than proven that splurging is worth it.

No doubt about it, our French Bulldogs love this product and would rate it 5-Stars. But, I'm the one who pays for the food so I am giving this a 4-Star rating. The red zipper for re-closing the bag is gone. My dogs vote with their stomachs. I vote with convenience and the maintenance of freshness in mind.

My dog has chronic pancreatitis and her vet wanted her to be on a low fat diet. He was pushing for me to buy the prescription brand, but that was too expensive. So I looked around for commercial brands for a low fat food and this was perfect. I can't even put into words how happy I am to find this. My dog used to be chronically ill because of her regular dog food and it took over a year for a vet to finally figure out it was because she cannot tolerate too much fat. After I switched her over to this specific food a few months ago, she hasn't had a pancreatic attack, and her appetite is so much more healthier than it ever was.

Our diabetic Yorkie does very well on this food. Only issue is my most recent order didn’t have a ziploc closure on it. Did wellness stop manufacturing with a ziploc closure?
