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.

Calories: This food contains 3630 kcal/kg or 420 kcal per cup ME (metabolizable energy) on an as fed basis (calculated).
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.
Feeding Guidelines & Information: We understand that every dog is different and optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, temperament, activity level and environment. Please adjust your dog's daily feeding portion using the information below as a guide. Your dog will appreciate access to clean, cool, fresh water at all times.
Nutrition is only one part of the equation! Be sure to give your dog plenty of love, plenty of exercise and see your veterinarian regularly to help ensure total wellness.

By far this is the best dog food I've come across and my lab puppy absolutely loves it! Just wish it was priced a little cheaper.

We searched for a year to find a dog food that our GSD would be able to tolerate. Her food allergies have given her many yeast infections. She hasn't had any problems at all with this food and we feel good about feeding her such a quality product.
