| Wellness or Nutro I am thinking about changing Dexter's food. He is currenlty eating Purina One..and he really likes it but he seems to itch alot.. so I heard that if I get something with no corn that it may help. His coat is also kinda dull. So.....I think I have narrowed it down to either Wellness or Nutro and wanted to get everyones input. If it's Wellness...which one The Wellness Super5Mix Small Breed Adult Health Dog Food or one of the others? Thanks Shannon |

| Nutro is known to have caused illness & death in many animals (you can google this). Please don't feed Nutro!!!!!! Wellness is a very good food and many here on YT feed it to their babies. If he's itching, you might try the grain-free Wellness first and see if he likes it. Good luck!

| Definitely Wellness. I guess it all depends on what flavor/kind your baby likes! |

| Wellness is a much better choice. They also have a very nice grain-free kibble called CORE. |

| I would NOT feed Nutro to any of my dogs, period! Between those two, Wellness for sure. |

| Ohhh There is a lot of bad reviews on NUTRO here. I had good reports from people that own our puppies and have them on wellness ... And never heard anything bad about wellness either... although it is not my food of choice.

| I like the Wellness but have only used the Weight Management. I also use the Natural Balance Allergy forumula which comes in duck or venison. Both are good products but the duck comes in "small bites." Hoping that they will do it with the venison as well.
