| wellness small breed super 5 mix has anyone else had problems with wellness? mocha was on solid gold hun de flocken (the gold bag) for awhile and so i decided to switch up her food. i then put her dogswell nutrisca lamb that she did well on but soon realized that no retailers carry it in store and i would have to purchase online. seeing that, i decided to put her on wellness since it's a reputable brand. she's been on it for two weeks but started to vomit last friday and her stomach was more bloated than usual. the weird thing is that she will vomit , but her stools are completely normal-no blood, no diarrhea, no extreme liquidness. i am baffled. i just ordered dogswell from amazon and will probably put her on a bland diet until i get that in. any advice or suggestions?

| I have Daisy on the puppy formula and she is thriving. No issues so far. If you did not gradually switch to the new food it could cause stomach upset. Harry Last edited by HarryK; 10-10-2011 at 03:19 PM. |

| I have fed Wellness Super 5 Mix for a while now and have very good luck with this food. Never any issues.

| i've always mixed her food when we're switching and she's never had a problem. maybe i got a bad bag or something. and this is the only thing that's changed in her diet recently.

| i think she might just have a little gas that's upsetting her stomach plus the new food. it's not going down to her intestines because her stools are normal. and she ate the whole sample bag of the super 5 that i got before i got the bigger bag which makes me think i may have just gotten a bad bag of food. i'm going to have her on some boiled chicken and rice and just play the wait and see game. thanks for all of your input.

| This is what I feed when they are not on their diet food but I also include the Welliness canned for one meal too. Have never had a problem and they seem to be doing great. |

YT 1000 Club Member | I have been feeding this to my dogs, and the only problem I have had with it is the excessive eye boogers. Maybe it was just a bad batch.

| Yes, Barney got life threatening pancreatitis from this food. He had the canned version.
