FAQs

Is this food suitable for puppies or senior dogs?

This formula is specifically designed for adult dogs of all breeds. Puppies and senior dogs have different nutritional requirements, so it's best to consult your veterinarian for appropriate food recommendations for those life stages.

How do I transition my dog to this new food?

A gradual transition over 7 days is recommended. Start by mixing 25% new food with 75% old food for 2 days, then gradually increase the new food while decreasing the old food until your dog is fully on the new diet by day 7.

What does 'grain-free' mean for my dog?

'Grain-free' means the food does not contain common grains like wheat, corn, or soy. This can be beneficial for dogs with grain sensitivities, helping to reduce digestive issues or allergic reactions.

Why is lamb the 'only animal protein' in this recipe?

Using lamb as the sole animal protein makes this food ideal for dogs with food sensitivities or allergies to other common proteins like chicken or beef. It simplifies the ingredient list, making it easier to manage dietary triggers.

What are 'superfoods' in dog food?

Superfoods in dog food refer to nutrient-dense ingredients like certain fruits, vegetables, and herbs that provide a concentrated source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to support overall health and vitality.

How should I store this dog food to keep it fresh?

Store the food in its original bag, sealed tightly, or transfer it to an airtight container. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to maintain freshness and nutritional integrity.

What are the recommended feeding guidelines?

> Info needed: Specific feeding guidelines vary based on your dog's weight, age, activity level, and other factors. Always refer to the detailed feeding chart provided on the product packaging for precise recommendations.

Troubleshooting

Dog refuses to eat the new food.

Ensure you are transitioning gradually. If the dog still refuses, try mixing a small amount of low-sodium chicken broth or warm water to enhance the aroma. If refusal persists, consult your veterinarian.

Digestive upset (vomiting/diarrhea) during transition.

Slow down the transition process, increasing the new food percentage more slowly (e.g., over 10-14 days). If symptoms are severe or persist, stop the new food and consult your veterinarian immediately.

Dog seems less energetic or hungry.

Ensure you are following appropriate feeding guidelines for your dog's weight and activity level (> Info needed: Refer to package for specific feeding guidelines). Check that the food is fresh and stored correctly. Consult a veterinarian if lethargy or appetite loss continues.

Weight changes (gain or loss).

Adjust portion sizes according to your dog's activity level, metabolism, and ideal body condition. Regularly monitor weight and consult your veterinarian for advice on proper caloric intake for weight management.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports Sensitive Stomachs: Excellent for dogs prone to digestive upset or allergies due to its grain-free and single-protein (lamb) composition.
  • High-Quality Protein Source: Fresh lamb is the first ingredient, promoting strong muscles and sustained energy.
  • Nutrient-Dense: Packed with wholesome vegetables and superfoods, providing essential vitamins and antioxidants.
  • Free from Common Allergens: No grains or unnecessary fillers, reducing the likelihood of adverse reactions.
  • Complete and Balanced: Formulated to meet the nutritional needs of all adult dog breeds.

Cons

  • Dietary Transition Required: Like all new foods, a gradual transition is necessary to prevent digestive upset, which requires patience.
  • Palatability Varies: While many dogs love it, individual preferences mean some dogs might initially be hesitant.
  • Specific Dietary Needs: Not suitable for dogs with a specific lamb allergy or those requiring a low-protein diet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Gradual Transition

When introducing Wellness CORE Complete Adult Lamb, a gradual transition over 7 days is crucial to prevent digestive upset. Follow these steps:

  1. Days 1-2: Mix 25% new food with 75% old food.
  2. Days 3-4: Mix 50% new food with 50% old food.
  3. Days 5-6: Mix 75% new food with 25% old food.
  4. Day 7: Feed 100% new food.

Monitor your dog's stool and appetite during this period. If any upset occurs, slow down the transition.

Compatibility

  • Adult Dogs: This formula is specifically designed for adult dogs of all breeds. It is not recommended for puppies or senior dogs with specific dietary needs without veterinary consultation.
  • Food Sensitivities: Particularly suitable for dogs with general digestive issues or sensitivities to common proteins, as lamb is the sole animal protein.
  • Active Lifestyles: The protein-rich formulation supports the energy requirements of moderately active adult dogs.

Care & Storage

  • Storage: Store the food in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. An airtight container is recommended to maintain freshness and prevent contamination.
  • Shelf Life: Refer to the 'Best By' date on the packaging for optimal freshness and nutritional value.
  • Keep Fresh: Always seal the bag tightly or transfer to an airtight container after each use. Avoid storing near strong odors.
