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 Simple each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness Simple by day 7. This food is formulated for adult, non-reproducing dogs over one year old as puppies and pregnant or nursing mothers have special nutritional requirements.

Our girl is 13 in three weeks. She is happy but suffers with arthritis of both elbows. Due to less activity, she gained weight which is not a benefit for her moving about. We changed to this product, quite similar to the prior one, except lower fat content. We also cut her amount down by 1/4 cup twice a day. She has lost 3 lbs in 2 weeks. Loves the food. I weaned her on to it over a few days without any problems. Thank you Chewy for the super service.

I gave 4 stars only because my dog has been on this formula only a short time, not long enough to assess the weight claims. Our havanese had been on the salmon and sweet potato formula for several years. Her weight had reduced 1.5#‘s just by having made this change and sweet potato biscuits. Her activity has remained the same throughout. She is on the larger size for her breed. Even if her weight remains unchanged, I am so very pleased with the product. I cannot sing praises enough about the chewy.com people. They provide excellent customer service; and, prices are always very good.

Our seven year old border collie aussie is allergic to grain and poultry, plus has weight issues due to a thyroid problem. This is the best quality food that suits all her needs, and the best price. It also has excellent probiotics and glucosamine for her beggining arthritis. She has been on this food for years. One bag lasts us about a month.

One of the “boys” has had a recurring skin problem. Beau and Bam were on a grain free kibble, but the vet recommended we switch from a chicken based protein to a fish based protein kibble. After researching many kibbles, I thought I’d give this a try. I’m always worrying about the fat content, since schnauzers are pancreatitis prone. I gradually transitioned them over. They love the kibble, scoff it up and Beau’s skin problems have cleared up. A winner!

Lexie does not like it and is off feed. I am mixing it with her previous food. Next time we will go back to Core Wellness diet food.

My dogs love this food and I feel good about giving it to them (limited ingredients, grain-free). Too soon to tell if it will help my overweight dog lose weight, but I have noticed that it seems to fill him up and he's not over-eating. My dogs did not have any negative affects with the gradual transition to this food from their old food.

Our newest rescue beagle was having major tummy issues. After multiple vet appointments the vet recommended peescription food. After we blew through a 6lb bag in 3 weeks, I decided to look for a less expensive option. This has been the answer! Stools are much better and he loves it! Our chubby toy poodle has been eating as well and seems to be loosing a few lbs! Just keep in mind it's a high fiber food so more frequent stools!

Pug has some food allergies that we are trying to determine so we are doing process of elimination. So far he is doing better on this. He definitely loves the taste of it. He's never been so excited to eat.
