At Wellness, they believe that animals' nutritional needs always come first, even over cost. Wellness diets represent the most nutritious ingredients used in the correct proportions for optimum health benefits. They seek ingredients that they would eat and that provide naturally occurring minerals, vitamins and antioxidants, in order to minimize the need for additional supplements. And, they do not use artificial colors in their foods, with natural preservatives used only in some of our treats and in limited portions.
Wellness believes that food is the first step to a long, happy and healthy life and a proper diet can be a preventative step to combat future ill-health. They constantly innovate, in order to provide the most healthy, delicious nutrition for the animals that depend on them, using the latest in research and advice from their team of Animal Nutritionists, Veterinarians and Food Scientists.
Wellness Pet Food manufactures Wellness Core, Wellness Simple Food Solutions and Mother Hubbard. Click on the images below to go to the specific pages for those brands.
Large Breed Adult Health - Dog Food - With grand scale and greater weight, your large breed dog has a unique physical composition that creates special nutritional needs.
Obesity is a Bigger Challenge for Large Breeds Extra weight puts extra stress on a large frame, so it's important for your dog to feel satiated without consuming excess calories. With moderate fat, this recipe helps control energy intake allowing your dog to eat enough and still maintain a healthy weight every day.
Small Digestive Tracts Relative to Body Size It is important for large breeds to easily digest and process food. We include live, naturally-occurring micro-organisms to support digestive health and we ensure optimal nutrient absorption through our Digestool™ confirmation studies - less nutrients in the stool, means more nutrients in the body.
Higher Percentage of Muscle Mass With greater size, there is more muscle to support and keep strong so we use 13% more protein than our Super5Mix Complete Health Recipe with 4 quality animal protein sources.
Need to Keep Joints Healthy Carrying an average weight of 100 pounds is hard work. To help keep joints healthy, this recipe features our WellFlex® System - 750 mg/kg of glucosamine hydrochloride and 250 mg/kg of chondroitin sulfate.
Large Breeds Tend to Eat Too Fast This bigger, rounder kibble is designed to promote proper chewing time in larger mouths. We also guarantee your dog will love the taste of each healthy, flavorful bite. Outstanding fiber source for healthy digestion. A naturally rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids.

Transitioning to Wellness: 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 the new nutrient levels. To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5-7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness by day 7.
Determining Feeding Portions: Looking at the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your dog's diet.
Recommended Feeding Portions (Based on a standard 8 oz dry measuring cup)
Every dog is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please use the information below as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed.

This dog food is made from good ingredients, but I can’t say that my dog likes it. I think next time I’ll try the same brand but different flavor.

Large Breed Puppy Health - Dog Food - With a longer growth cycle and faster potential growth rate, your large breed puppy has a unique physical composition that creates special nutritional needs.
Controlled Bone Development Optimal skeletal development depends on appropriate amounts of calcium and phosphorus. We carefully control these mineral levels and then guarantee their accuracy on every bag - so you can be sure your puppy will grow strong bones at the right pace.
Paced, Steady Growth Rate With a potential growth up to 100 times their birth weight, a large breed puppy's energy intake must be regulated to ensure consistent, steady growth. That's why this special recipe controls calories with 20% less fat than Super5Mix Just for Puppy.
The Right Start to a Healthy Weight With more weight on larger frames, maintaining ideal body condition is a big concern. Since lean muscle is the foundation of healthy weight, this recipe has 26% protein with 4 quality animal protein sources to help develop strong, lean muscle.
DHA to Support Brain Development Smart and trainable, large breed dogs often grow up to lead and serve. To help support cognitive development vital to training, we use salmon meal and salmon oil to provide DHA, a fatty acid normally found in their mother's milk.
50% Longer Growth Cycle Some large breeds are considered puppies for up to 24 months so they need a healthy food that tastes great day after day. With satisfaction guaranteed, we use deboned chicken and whitefish to provide a natural taste that puppies love.

To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5-7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness by day 7.
How to Feed Your Puppy: As puppies grow up they need to learn when, where and how to eat. Depending on age, puppies need to be fed at the same time and in the same place 2 - 4 times per day. Food should be removed after 20 minutes, if not eaten. In the beginning, puppy's food can be moistened with a little warm water. It is very important that your puppy not overeat, as this can lead to skeletal development issues in large breeds.

Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your puppy's diet.

For Pregnant or Nursing Dogs: Since DHA is transferred to puppies in mother's milk, we recommend feeding this during pregnancy and nursing. During this time allow her to eat at will.

We have a 10 month old German Shepherd puppy, MAJEK, who isn't much of a foodie, so what she eats has to have exceptional value. She seems to enjoy Wellness for Large Breeds more than some of the other premium brands she has had during food rotation every 3 months or so and food blends. She has one large meal of kibble/can and one smaller meal of raw/raw bones daily. She has maintained nice slow steady growth and is currently 62 pounds. We are expecting her to finish around 70 pounds and we expect to have her on a large breed puppy food for at least another year.
2. Lori on 8/7/2009, said:
My Golden puppy does very well on this food. His skin is perfect and his stools are small and well formed. He loves the food so much, I can even use it as training treats.
3. Stephanie on 7/16/2009, said:
Doberman puppy loved this food :)
4. Lidia on 7/10/2009, said:
She likes it but sometimes she won't eat it all or just wait until she realizes she doesn't have any other option. I might try something different. Still going to test this a little longer.

One of the best puppy foods on the market. Our Boxer loves it.

Rice and Duck - Dog Food - USDA-inspected Deboned Duck is leaner than traditional red meats and close in nutritional make-up to other poultry. The choice of duck offers a host of other benefits. Duck is also high in protein and niacin, an essential B Vitamin. Once again, our deboned duck has the same delicious taste and exceptional quality as that from any grocery store.
Holistic practitioners agree that, the common factor with most allergy-afflicted pets is a diet comprised of unnatural foods that often contain chemical additives, preservatives, and flavorings. For dogs that are currently suffering from an allergic reaction or breeds prone to one or more of these challenges, Wellness has developed Simple Food Solutions.

my boxer liked the dog food, but I noticed she started passing gas after changing to this dog food. I am going to put her back on her old dog food to see if it was the dog food or just her.

Dixie likes this dog food and eats it well. Her coat has regained its shine and her joint problems continue to improve.
Her stools are too soft but I don't know if this is because of the Wellness JFS food or other underlying health problem. I am hoping that this problem will correct itself as she continues to eat the JFS. If it does, I would give this dog food 5 stars.

Determining Feeding Portions: Looking at the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your dog's diet.

How to Feed Your Puppy - As puppies grow up they need to learn when, where and how to eat. Depending on age, puppies need to be fed at the same time and in the same place 2-4 times per day. Food should be removed after 20 minutes, if not eaten. In the beginning, puppy's food can be moistened with a little warm water.
Determining Feeding Portions: Looking at the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your puppy per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your puppy's diet.
Nutrition is only one part of the equation! Be sure to give your puppy plenty of love, plenty of exercise and see your veterinarian regularly to help ensure total wellness.
Recommended Feeding Portions (Based on a standard 8 oz dry measuring cup)
Every dog is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please use the information below as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed.

For Pregnant or Nursing Dogs: Since DHA is transferred to puppies in mother's milk, we recommend feeding this during pregnancy and nursing. When pregnant, feed up to 50% more food according to body weight at 12 mos. For nursing dogs, allow her to eat at will.
Combination Feeding If feeding with wet food, reduce dry amount by 1/3 cup for every 6 oz of wet food.

Quality ingredients and a taste my picky eater loves. His coat is noticeably improved on this food compared to the regular food he was on at the breeder's. I would definitely recommend this food.

Great food for a great price - I stocked up on this when it was on sale recently, and it's been a big hit with my puppy.
2. Eva on 5/14/2009, said:
My very picky eater scarfs this down like nothing else. Since switching from the regular dog food he was on at the breeders, his coat has become noticeably shinier, his eyes are more vibrant and he is more energetic.
3. Adrienne on 3/27/2009, said:
Although our puppy doesn't particularly prefer this canned food over any other that we've tried, we know that, nutritionally, we've feeding him a top-rated canned food and doing our best for him.

Transitioning to Wellness: 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 the new nutrient levels. To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5-7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness by day 7.
Determining Feeding Portions: Looking at the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your dog's diet.

I've only been feeding it to my miniature Schnauzer for a short while, so I don't know how it will do long-term. She eats it, but acts like she is still hungry. Runs to my little toy dog's bowl to see if there's anything left! (No luck--the little one scarfs it all down....) I wish this formula had more protein and less grain. The food she was eating before I put her on this one had 28% protein, so I wonder if she's getting enough now with just 17%.

our 7 dogs love this food, plus k9 is super fast in shipping. Can't beat their price!
3. Eva on 6/23/2009, said:
Helps to keep that extra weight off for weight loss or maintaining weight. I used this product to replace Hills Prescription Diet R/D. Premium Food worth the price.
