| Wellness users, please help me out. I have Bailey on Wellness Just For Puppy...but he is over 8 months now, and I will soon be switching to adult food, but I am clueless as to which one to buy, Wellness has several flavors, plus another one called Core..I don't know which Wellness product to choose. Any suggestions?

YT 1000 Club Member | I feed the super5 mix small breed. It has small poeces that I find my 4 have no problem earing. I also only feed the wellness chicken or beef.

| Darlene I use Wellness puppy for Skyler and also Innova puppy. I mix them because he is such a picky eater. Soon I'll be switching Skyler and Lily to Innova adult which is an all life stage food. After doing some research they say it is better to keep them on puppy food (higher in fat and protein)for a longer period of time or to switch to als food. Wellness adult is not an als food but I know it is hard for you to get a lot of different foods but maybe you would consider leaving Bailey on the puppy food a while longer. He is such a little guy and since he is not over weight you don't have to worry. Skyler is a little chubby and that's why I'm switching. Hope that helps a little. Hugs to Bailey Blu.

| We use the Wellness Super5 mix for small dogs. It has small pieces and they really seem to love it.

| You can contact Wellness and ask for some free samples of each adult formula; that way you could see which one he likes best! I feed CORE in rotation; I tried the small breed adult, but she didn't really like it compared to the others. CORE is their grain-free formula. |

| We used to feed Core and the canned 95%, because we wanted to feed only grain-free food. Franklin and Maggie loved it and did really well on it!

| It depends on what you want. I would say yes, CORE is better because I much prefer high protein/grain-free diets. But their other formula's are "bad". If you don't have a preference I would just go with whichever your dog likes best, or you could always rotate. I like CORE best, but have tried the small breed adult formula. |
