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.

We adopted our girl about two months ago. Right from the start, she had very loose stool. So much so that we basically had to rip out the grass wherever she did her business. Not sustainable. Also, she had terrible gas. We reached out to the vet and she recommended this food. After about three days, she had solid stool. We even tried to bring back in some of the food the shelter recommended for her since we had a whole bag, but her stool went right back to soft. She loves this food and would do arithmetic for a few pieces of kibble. I love it since it's really solved her tummy problems.

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.

Rizzo liked this flavor much better than the salmon and potato. The lamb and oatmeal flavor she loves just as much as the "junk food" we switched her from, which was also lamb flavored (picky dog!). I love that it has simple ingredients and I feel that I am feeding her the best without skimping on the flavor.

My dogs (all 3) love this food. We have had less stomach issues on this food compared to others we have tried. My lil 5 pound love has to be careful how much protein she has, and this seems to be working awesome!!

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 the food and have not had any problem changing flavors. I am trying to get them to lose a little weight.
