Very good food for my dog

Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2024

We adopted out a black lab from a litter and another family member adopted out her sister. My dogs coat is extremely shiny and I truly believe it has a lot to do with the food because the other relative feeds the dog very inexpensive food and does not look as healthy as our dog

Great Food but Get Dented Cans from Amazon

Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2015

My dog has lots of allergies and this grain free canned food is high quality and easily tolerated. It is a bit pricey, but you do get a value here. I have never seen or heard of any recalls with this brand. I have fed this to my dog for over 8 years. BUT, the five star rating is for the food and not as delivered by Amazon. Several in the case of 12 arrive dented. Used to think it was due to shipping but then I noticed that the dented cans could be in the middle too. I contacted Amazon and no answer. I suspect that they get a high percentage of dented cans and that's why the price is substantially lower than other providers. I get my ear right next to the dented cans to make sure I hear the seal break so I know the food inside is okay. Botulism occurs in canned food with broken seals. You can't smell or see botulism but it is deadly. So, bottom line, I order this product from another provider at a higher cost for the peace of mind. If Amazon would replace dented cans then I would order through them again.

My Rottweilers have been eating Wellness Core for their whole life. 6&1/2 years and counting. Their coat, skin, and digestive system are excellent. My vet congratulates me on their tremendous health.

helping my dog and she loves it

Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2015

I bought the first back of the turkey, chicken and liver flavor locally to try it out. after transitioning her to it we noticed how much more regular she was and her "after meal business" was easier to pick up. she used to get diarrhea from so many other brands we tried. and while I have to say she loves the junky brands of dog food out there (the ones that are all by products and garbage you should not feed your dog) they were not agreeing with her system. finding a balance of quality food she will eat was not easy. she is a Crested, if you have one, you know they are picky. I got the dog as a rescue and had to have several bad teeth removed, so she needs a softer food to eat easily, this really fits the bill. the canned food is like a pâté. I give her 1/4 can twice a day with ground up with wellness core air dried kibble. I mixed them together so she gets a bit of something to chew with her last back teeth. her skin is looking great, and she put on a pound. is 8 pounds now. she licks her bowl clean. what I love most is what it does inside her- no more gassy dog on the sofa next to me, no more
beef breath, no more wet runny mess in the grass to
scrape up, no more dog straining for way too long to "go". if you have a picky eater, give it a try, it may be perfect for you. its much easier than cooking for your pup.
I did get one can with a dent when I ordered it here, and I see many reviews about the dents but it did not effect the contents, it was not broken open in any way. the case comes in a box, it has those bubble pillows around it, but its heavy so I think dents will be part of the process, but its so much cheaper here on Amazon even if I had a few I cant use I am ahead.
see my photos of the product out of the can if you want to know what it looks like, its a ground smooth food. the higher protein count in this food VS the last lower price stuff means I had to cut back on the feeding portions (or cut out her treats or have a chubby pup) I just cut back her portions and she did gain weight which she needed. she is now at a healthy good weight and is happy.

Very disappointed upon opening carton. Several of the cans were dented and other cans were missing labels.

I am obsessed with buying good dog food for my dog because I am not the kind who spends time making food for one's dog. I committed a lot of time in research, studied the labels, talked to the vets and read all the ratings and reviews from various independent dog food analysis sites and narrowed the choices down to : Wellness Core, Blue Wilderness, Nature Variety's Instinct, Orijen, TOTW, Castor and Pollux's Organix. These all have good things in common i.g. made in US (or Canada), holistic, grain free, and no meat by product etc...

Well, Wellness is our no. 1 choice for simply 3 reasons:
1) it's quality consistent-some such as Blue Wilderness are good, but have occasional quality comtrol issues and mix reviews.
2) it's reasonably priced. Compared to Instinct and some other costlier brands, Wellness is more affordable with the same quality.
3) it offers both dry and can food, also senior and weigh control formula. (I like Orijen but unfortunately they don't have can food, just dry or raw.
My dog had been on Wellness Core for years. When I recommended it to friends with dogs, they instantly noticed a change in their dogs coat conditions.

Highest quality dog food

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2016

This is one of few dog food brands to receive 5 star reviews at the Dog Food Advisor web site. Wellness products contain only whole foods and trusted ingredients -- no wheat, corn, soy, preservatives, etc. The food is made in the US and the company is committed to sourcing its ingredients from trusted sources.

We feed our dog Wellness Core canned food and kibble. The foods are high in protein, with the canned food providing high protein and good fat and the kibble providing high protein and carbs from ingredients like sweet potato. I am confident choosing this product line for my dog.

Tip: One 12 oz can stuffs four large Kongs (each holds 1/4 of a can ... about 3 oz.). I feed my dog her wet food stuffed into a Kong rather than mixed in with her kibble. This slows her down and gives her a little mental exercise and play. Each Kong is an extra special treat as far as she's concerned!

DON'T BUY!!
The new formula of canned dog food caused my pet severe gastric distress. She had terrible diarrhea all over the carpet and vomited food and water. She spent another night with bad wind pains. The vet identified the canned dog food as the problem. She hasn't had a problem since a change in diet.

Perfect for my diabetic dog!!

Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2021

Verified Purchase

I felt like I had to write a review because I am so happy with it and so is my Teddy Boy. My dog has diabetes and in the beginning we were giving him bland chicken and rice but even then his sugars were constantly too high but could not give him any regular dog food because how picky he is .. he literally refused to eat and anyone that’s familiar with diabetes knows how dangerous that can be. I have about 5 other dog kibble and none of them grabbed his attention. But with this food!!!! I read good reviews on the flavor and I was very hopeful it’ll work. AND it did and not only does he like it his sugar levels have been way more regulated. With plain chicken and rice he was still showing 400+ glucose levels ever since we gave him this canned food he went to the 300… beyond thankful for this brand . Truly .
