Wellness CORE Grain-Free Senior Deboned Turkey Recipe Dry Dog Food

I have an 11 going on 12 yr old this year Husky/Border collie mix. We switched her food about a month and a half ago because I thought it was time to invest in a great Senior Dog food regime that would keep my partners first dog as an adult around as long as I can. Let me say, I have seen amazing results so far. She’s on the lighter side, 35-38lbs so she gets about a 3/4- 1 of a cup of dry, and we mix it with 3-4tbsp of the Wellness Senior Formula twice a day, she loves it! She’s usually so picky about food but this combo was a winner from day one. And her (we call it) “neck fluff” and gone down significantly, digestive movements are insanely consistent and healthy, her energy is great for longer I have an 11 going on 12 yr old this year Husky/Border collie mix.

I'm a long time fan of Wellness, and over the years have used several of their product lines, for both my dogs and cat. I recently switched both my seniors to this one, from a more expensive grain free kibble. Specifically because of the Taurine. It never occurred to me that one of them would not like the taste of a Wellness product (these are dogs that usually eat everything put in front of them). But he doesn't, so now I have to keep disguising it with wet food. The other one is a four legged vacuum cleaner, and not exactly discerning, so he doesn't really count. This may sound strange, but something I've always noticed about kibble is the smell.

This one doesn't. If anything, it smells stale. Unfortunately I didn't catch the auto ship in time, so we'll be switching after the next bag. … more

My dog did not do well with this food , the kibble is very hard and this food made her gain weight . It is important that I keep her weight down as she is 10 with some arthritis in her back legs .I was giving her natural instinct which she loved but it made her very gassy . I have read good reviews on this wellness Core so I am trying the small breed formula.

I spent more time than I will admit (I'm an analytical one) researching dog food brands, types, and ingredients recently and ended up changing my 11-year-old golden retriever from Natural Balance (fish and sweet potato) that she has been on for at least 9 years(*) to this Wellness CORE Senior GF food. She liked it and I was feeling pretty good about our choice as the ingredients and overall care and reputation of Wellness has certainly grown on me (Natural Balance is great too). Then, our vet informed us that the heart issue dogs are getting is contributed by having too much peas, potatoes, or chickpeas in the food (in the specific case of this food, the issue is broader than this when other I spent more time than I will admit (I'm an analytical one) researching dog food brands, types, and ingredients recently and ended up changing my 11-year-old golden retriever from Natural Balance (fish and sweet potato) that she has been on for at least 9 years(*) to this Wellness CORE Senior GF food.

An easy way to decipher is to not have these ingredients in the top 5 items of the ingredients as they are ordered by concentration. So, we will likely switch to a more standard Senior option by Wellness (back to me analyzing food), maybe not grain-free. Rice, barley, and oatmeal are better than wheat and corn. (* We started her as a puppy with Blue Buffalo but she would poop in the house by the back door occasionally and then eat her poop in the yard. After spending money on vet visits and other things we finally change the food and presto, zero problems since. Well, we recently adopted a mixed breed puppy that was on Blue Buffalo and the same thing happened, switched to Wellness brand puppy food, no more problem. Beware of Blue Buffalo, they seem to spend a lot on marketing but their food does not agree with my dogs.) … more

We were looking for a "fat lazy dog" food. We were feeding Wellness lamb grain free. At 7 years old our Lab has not shed that couple of pounds winter weight gain. So, we went looking for a senior food in the Wellness family. Labs being Labs, if one isn't vigilant as they get older, their weight can become unhealthy. The transition has been seamless. Yeah for Wellness. Yeah for Chewy.

Chewy has always done a good job. Although the shipments have been delayed during the Covid 19 pandemic, I appreciate that Chewy puts the workers and families that work there first and foremost. I will always order all my pets needs from Chewy.

My boxer has been on Wellness kibble since I got her. She is almost 7 now and still has puppy-like energy. It is more expensive than many brands but I have living proof that it is worth the money.

I transitioned my now senior doggo over to this formula without any issues. He loves it and seems to be benefiting from it. Chewy (as usual) was outstanding with helping me change my auto-ship last minute. I’m a customer for life. Thanks Wellness brand and Chewy.

My 12 yr old Lhasa ate this ok when mixing it with his old food...would leave a few pieces but no big deal, right? Well, once the transition was done, he’s stopped eating it. I’ve tried mixing it with canned, water, toppers, cheese, chicken and he literally sucks whatever else is in there off the kibble and spits it out. I’m pretty site it’s the kibble size and not the taste. I wish they made this in a small breed formula but we’ll have to keep looking for a senior formula he’ll eat.

My Old Shepard/Collie Eats it ... it Must Be Good !! Thor Doesn't Eat Most Dog Foods But He Eats this & it's Healthy !!
