| Nutro Ultra I was wondering what people think of this food. We just changed our dog to it, he hated Wellness and loves this! |

| I bought Nutro Ultra for puppies today and was feeding Elvis Wellness before...he barely eats the Wellness, so when I put in the new food, that was all he'd eat out of his dish and totally ignored the Wellness that was mixed in because you're suppose to slowly introduce the new food...well, forget that! ha. I think he is going to like Nutro...keeping my fingers crossed as this is probably about the 4th or 5th food I've tried him on. I'm trying to find a food that will "agree" with his intestines.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I wouldn't use Nutro brands for a number of reasons, but if for nothing else, because of the dog food recalls. Seems Nutro kept having problems and wasn't real quick to admit it and take responsibility.

| If you go to the Consumer Affairs website, there is a long list of complaints. Nutro is a dangerous food to feed and they haven't admitted it yet. It would suggest switching and possibly going to a bland diet and going to another food rather than feeding it and switching over for 7 days. That is too long to feed it in my opinion...

| My vet told me Nutro is JUNK! He said dogs on it get pancreatis and other bad things, I forget what. He begged me not to feed it to her. So, I took his advice! I feed Science Diet. He says dogs he sees on it do far better and live longer on it. Pat |

| Thank you guys for all the responses about Nutro! I read the different weblinks about Nutro and have decided to stop feeding it to Elvis and will be taking it back to the store.
