Questions & Answers

15 Customer Questions


There's been lots of information about the dangers of kibble due to the high temperatures they are cooked at. Is that true with this product as well? Thank you, also how much per day for a 12 pound 2.5 year old. Thank you so much.


Are ALL the ingredients sourced in the USA. I see a lot of food produced in the USA to me that does NOT mean the ingredients all came from inside the USA Its just means the food was put together and packaged in the USA please clarify.

Answer by ChewyDec 24, 2018
This recipe is manufactured Indiana and the ingredients are primarily sourced in the United States depending on availability. However, certain ingredients will need to be outsourced (i,e: Lamb, Venison, Duck, Rabbit, Vitamin Packs, etc.) to ensure top quality and freshness, while meeting a reasonable price point for pet parents. Lastly, the Green Tea Extract and Mixed Tocopherols (a portion of them) are sourced from reputable suppliers in China.

Do you have to keep this food in the refrigerator?

Answer by ChewyJun 22, 2018
It is recommended to store this food in a cool, dry place.

How many mgs of glucosamine/chondroitin are in this food per cup? I'm trying to figure out how much/if I need to reduce the supplement I give my dog for her joints. Our vet recommended that she get at least 500mgs of glucosamine per day and she eats a cup of dry food per day.

Answer by ChewyAug 02, 2018
This formula contains 250 milligrams of Glucosamine (minimum) per cup.

Awesome Food

We only use kibble in the morning and cook fresh organic food/meats for all five of our Old English Sheepdog's in the evening.

No Freeze-Dried Pieces

Just opened my second bag with no freeze dried pieces. My dogs are not happy! Hoping my next shipment is better otherwise I will be switching food.

My very picky dog with allergies loves this. She eats it all every time. I officially have her transitioned over to this food. She no longer has goopy eyes and no more paw stains from licking. So happy I found this food.

Great food

Great food. Pup loves it. The previous bag didn't have many of the freeze dried bits... of course his favorite part. Hoping this one is better.

It's the only thing he can eat

I tried to switch to a similar novel proteins diet to save money and wound up at urgent care. I'll go broke for wellness core before I ever try switching again.

Solid food!

My dog isn’t a huge fan of chicken flavored things. I got this because the brand seemed healthier and had yummy chunks (she’s spoiled and won’t eat normal kibble

My dog isn’t a huge fan of chicken flavored things. I got this because the brand seemed healthier and had yummy chunks (she’s spoiled and won’t eat normal kibble now). She liked it well enough but got bored towards the end of the bag.

Our dog loves her new food.

She actually begs us to feed her early. She will point to her container when we get home from work.

Where's The Meat

There was no freeze dried meat in the bag. That was the second bag I bought with no freeze dried meat. Very disappointed.
