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 male golden pup was constantly getting diarrhea with negative parasite results. Our vet put us on Royal Canine prescription food which costs around $90 dollars for a big pack, ridiculous! I know it wasn't going to do anything since the first ingredient on it was the chicken by-product. Anyway, long story short I did a lot of research, even read research papers and realized beef and chicken are the number one allergens for canines and decided to switch to limited ingredient salmon and potato formula from Wellness. He no longer has diarrhea, his stools are firm, and he is a healthy dog. The only complaint is his huge stools to pick up, but I take it over diarrhea & upset stomach any day.

I have a very picky Yorkie with a sensitive stomach. She also gets tired of her food and will just stop eating so I have to switch it up for her every 4-6 weeks. When I mix this with another food, she picks out the pieces and leaves them on the living room rug. She went almost three days without eating when this was the only thing in her bowl. I was excited about the limited ingredients and price, however if she won't eat it, that doesn't really matter.

We transitioned our Golden Retriever to this food from Eukanuba at the suggestions of our Vet. She was having frequent hot spots and they recommended no meat, only seafood and grain diet. The transition went smooth. Goldens will literally eat anything. So far Addie loves it. I'm even hoping she will lose some weight now that we are monitoring her treats and food more closely.

My chocolate lab has battled soft stool issues for months...really his whole life (he’s only one year). Even on high quality, vet recommended kibble, he did not improve. Wellness simple corrected (firmed) his issues almost immediately....and that was with slowly transitioning his food over 10 days. Was told by a lab breeder that labs don’t do well with chicken. I now make sure to avoid chicken in all treats as well.

We switched to this food because our dog seems to have a sensitive stomach and the food we were feeding, a premium dehydrated raw food, may not been agreeing with her resulting in frequent soft or loose stools. We're still transitioning to this food but already seeing improvement in her stools so expect to stick with it. My one complaint at this point is that the feeding quidelines are very generic. For example, dogs weighing 25-40 pounds is a very large grouping that makes it difficult to narrow down to correct amount to feed. On the other hand, I usually take these guidelines with a grain of salt as each dog is so different in their activity level and treat intake.

My weimaraner was failing allergy medication (steroids, antihistamines, apoquel), so we had to wean off everything in order to proceed with allergy testing. While we had done a food test years prior, I decided to place him on Wellness simple during the weaning process to keep allergens at an absolute minimum. He has done so well during this month of less medication and Wellness simple, that we are even considering cancelling the allergy testing! His coat has improved and itching has lessened!

I had tried several good brands and Maggie’s loose stools persisted. I tried Wellness L.I.D. Salmon and Potato and her stools firmed up overnight! I can tell Maggie loves the flavor, as she devours it. It makes a nice light gravy when you add some water. The brand receives very high scores on all the reviews. The ingredients are very wholesome, and Maggie is at her perfect weight. I enthusiastically recommend this diet.
