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.

My black lab has had issues with hot spots and chronic ear infections. The vet said it was most likely due to an allergy and recommended I try different foods until I found one that did not cause a problem. She said I would have to try a food for 3 months to tell if it worked or not so it would take a long time. I tried a lot of foods including Fromm, Blue Buffalo, Taste of the Wild, Diamond grain free, Nutro, and Rexford. I even made my own food for a while. I have been using Wellness Simple Lamb and Oatmeal and have had no hot spots and no ear infections. I my dog's case, it seems that chicken might have something to do with it.

This seems to be the perfect food for our dog who struggles so with anal gland issues (so far so good)! She was having her glands expressed every 4 weeks or so and had soft, messy bowl movements. Now they are nice and firm and she is less agitated with no scooting! I pray this continues. Thank you for all the reviews which were helpful in the selection and thanks for offering this food which I haven't seen in any stores locally.

I had high hopes for this dog food, but my dog doesn't like it. She was on a Rx dog food for sensitive stomach that contained chicken. Unfortunately chicken causes her to scratch constantly. Maybe I'll try the duck formula.

My dogs love this flavor! My vet loves it because it includes oatmeal, a necessary grain. I love it because it’s gentle on their sensitive stomachs and helps skin from becoming itchy

Contacted Chewy to have my dogs food shipped monthly because the stores don't carry his brand anymore. I used to drive an hour to the only xxxxx that carried it. Before that I had it delivered by xxxxx and they sent a bag which was spoiled and my dog got sick.They apologized and sent a new bag from the same batch which was tainted. Told me that was all they could send so I drove an hour and now they stop carrying in store. I went to Chewy and they were so helpful and kind and shipped it out and I received it in 2 days with no issues. Thank you Chewy for great costumer service! It is the only brand and type my dog can eat since he is allergic to every dog food.Please continue to carry it or I Contacted Chewy to have my dogs food shipped monthly because the stores don't carry his brand anymore.

Maggie Mae likes this chicken-free Kibble - and as she's allergic to chicken, that's whats important I also appreciate that Wellness isn't crumbly.

Dogs had no problem with it. Only been on it a week and so far, so good. Both dogs do have gas but it could be from switching the food over.

My humans had been feeding me Wellness Core,but as I got older (I'm 11) it started to upset my tummy a bit. So they switched to this one and boy oh boy I love it. I have to be polite when I eat or else I would gobble this down with one breath ! I love it, no more tummy upsets and I have so much energy it's like I'm a pup again. Jim and Sandy are having trouble keeping up with me-maybe they should try some new food-ha ha. Seriously, this is the best, like I said no more tummy upset, I don't have to be coaxed to eat, more energy and I'm looking good, nice shiny coat, I feel pretty oh so pretty !
