Transition Instructions

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

CORE is highly palatable so your dog may tend to eat more of this food. Watch initially to see if you need to adjust regular eating patterns. Give your dog access to clean, cool fresh water at all times and feed Wellnessร‚ยฎ COREร‚ยฎ wet food in combination whenever possible, to increase the level of water in your dog's diet. Nutrition is the foundation of wellbeing, but be sure to give your dog plenty of love, exercise and see your veterinarian regularly

Boxer has yeast infection after half way thru 2nd

Hi, My Boxer has been eating Wellness for years now. She is 8 yrs old and for the past 4 yrs has been eating Complete Health Chicken Reduced fat. About 2 months ago I switched her to Core reduced fat and she is not even half way thru her 2nd bag and she has a yeast infection in her ears and on her skin underneath her body. This has been verified by a Vet thru a culture. The Core is the only thing that has been changed. Now i am searching for another food to switch her to. I want to keep her grain free, and I am very disappointed that I have so much food left that I paid $62.00 for that i will now be unable to feed her. She is my helper dog so it is very important to me that she is healthy and happy.

Wellness Core Reduced Fat Dog Food

We tried this as our old dog used to eat this. I am not sure if this is a new formula as Sara (who eats everything), refused to eat it. I even tried hand feeding and Sara spit it out. We returned it to Petco.

Wellness....the very best !

Wellness offers the very best pet food made. I have had my two sweet "Rescues" on the CORE or SIMPLE diets and both are excellent. Both Pups are (were) so healthy and their coats are like silk. On my second Pup Tybee, she came with a food allergy and after two weeks on the Wellness CORE reduced fat, it totally disappeared.

Core dry reduced fat

We use all Wellness products and they are excellent products with NO by products! but I will say, the reduced fat core has too much dust.

Grain-Free

My 3 dogs (Lab and 2 Jack Russells) have been eating CORE Grain-free for almost 15 years. They love the food and it's good for them. My Lab had food related allergies before we switched to Wellness CORE and after being on this food reduced her allergy related problems and gave her a gorgeous shiny coat. I wish the cost were a bit lower, other than that I highly recommend this product.

CORE is great for my dogs

As my two Golden Retrievers have aged, I moved them from original CORE to the reduced fat variety. I am extremely happy with this food, as I was with original CORE. My dogs love it, they don't have skin issues, their weight is very good and their overall health is great for their age. I have fed CORE to my dogs for many years through several generations of Golden Retrievers. I mix the dry with warm water and a small amount of CORE canned or home cooked meat or eggs to change up the protein base on occasion. I am a big fan of Grain-free foods and this one has worked for all of us.

Yummy

My two dogs have been on this for years...I don't like switching foods so this one I will keep buying. Only bad thing is price has sky rocketed and I have a hard time getting it.
