About Wellness Core Wholesome Grains
Grain-Free, Protein-Focused Food
Your dog’s primal ancestors ate mostly meat, and Wellness CORE believes a meat-centric diet will help your pup thrive, too. CORE’s grain-free formulas are filler-free and packed with quality animal protein, plus supplements for added nutrition.
Wholesome Grains Formulas
The protein-packed nutrition of original CORE balanced with easy-to-digest wholesome grains—it’s a winning combination that helps support a strong heart and muscles and healthy immunity. These all-natural recipes will help fuel your pup’s best life.
Balanced, Digestible Nutrition
Premium protein with nutrient-rich superfoods and added nutritional supplements combine to ensure your best friend has everything he needs to thrive. These highly digestible recipes contain no meat by-products, fillers, legumes, potatoes or artificial preservatives or flavors—just protein and grain-fueled nutrition tailored to your dog’s unique dietary needs.
Meat First
Fresh meat is the very first ingredient in every CORE food, and these recipes are no different. Real turkey, fish and chicken give your pup the hearty protein he was born to eat, with the added nutrition of oatmeal, barley and quinoa for easy digestion and long-lasting energy.

Great pasig food
I like that the food didn’t have any chicken byproduct, but no where in the ingredients does it say that it has salmon. I was under the impression that this dog food contained salmon, my dog happens to love salmon. All in all I’m sure it has great nutritional value but my dog didn’t like it. It’s not a strike against the food, my dog is a very finicky eater and like a lot of Goldendoodles, she has a sensitive tummy. So we’re back on the hunt for food that is high on protein, has salmon, but has no chicken. She seems to be allergic to chicken.
High Protein, Moderate Fat, Poultry Free!
This food ticks every single box for my crew! I needed high protein (30% plus), moderate fat (14-16%), grain inclusive, poultry free, and great ingredients! Love love love this food! Stools and coats are great too!
too big for small dogs
I’m attaching a photo of the kibble size compared to a typical small bites dog food. The small bites are pea sized for reference. This dog food is about 3x that size.
Wellness Core High Protein
This dog food has really good ingredients and my dog absolutely loves the taste. There was no vomiting or diarrhea switching to this food so that’s also great. I just think it’s a little pricey. But I wanted a high protein food for my dog that’s healthy which this is so it’s worth it in my opinion
Fantastic
This dog food has a very strong fish odor, but it's absolutely great for my German shepherd skin and coat. I no longer have to give them Benadryl for their allergies. They gobble it right up. I can't say it affects their stools any.
Unknown Allergy Solution!
We have a family of sensitive morkie’s. My mom has the mother and son, while I have the daughter. They all require a “limited ingredient” diet or else they will have diarrhea. I’ve tried many different foods through the years but Wellness brand has been my favorite after trials and research. Dog Food Advisor rated this food at a full 5-stars so I thought I’d try it and see if the well made food had good enough ingredients to hold up, since many limited ingredient formulas didn’t have as high of a rating, and I want the best for my kiddos. The Wellness CORE line has been the only food to not cause diarrhea! I thought I’d push it further and try the “wholesome grains” recipe since vet’s spoke out about grain free not being a healthy choice, and even still! I don’t know what their allergy/sensitivity is, but it provides me so much comfort to know that they don’t have whatever ingredient it is. It also makes me wonder what is in all these other foods that causes them this problem? I recommend trying Wellness to everyone I know!
So far, so good
Up until recently I refused to feed my dog anything but Purina Pro Plan, because I believe in the brand and like that there is extensive testing, excellent quality control, and veterinarians on staff. However, my dog appears to be allergic to rice which is in all of the PPP formulas. His stools were always some degree of loose. And he is always very itchy. Even with the sensitive skin and stomach formulas. I’ve had him on this new wellness (with grain, as we are avoiding grain-free diets per the FDA) for a few weeks now. He had his first completely normal, solid stool today, since I can remember. Wellness is supposed to be a decent brand of kibble so I think for now we will stick with it. He loves the flavor too and gets so excited for his meals.
Stinky Food
Dog did not enjoy this. Neither would touch it. Overwhelming fish smell compared to other fish based diets.
Great for his skin, not his gut
My aussie's fur needs lots of love in the dry winter. Some recipes just don't nourish his coat, but this one does! However, his stool has been loose since the switch. He was fine on salmon food so I assume the problem is the protein source. Too bad, he loved the taste of this!
This dog food is a hit with my rescues!
Thank you! My dogs love it so much. They are extremely happy after switching to this brand.
