| I used the puppy one (in the yellow can just like the bagged dry food) when we first got CoCo and I could have sworn I saw carrots in it? I would think if she is also eating the dry food she should be OK, jmo. |

| I gave Stella 95% duck wet food by EVO as a way to entice her to eat her dry kibbles when she was a puppy. She loved that stuff, and would eat her kibbles without a problem. I don't think it's very balanced if that's all they're getting, but in addition to their kibbles it's probably better than them being picky and not wanting to eat! |

| Hello from Warren MI!!!!! Wellness is a pretty good company and any food without grains is a plus in my opinion!! Many on here feed grainfree diets b/c many pups have alergic reactions to grains and/or make their coats itchy etc. Canned food can be fatty so just be sure you're not giving too much to your baby. Smiles- Snick & Viv Ps. If you're ever in the Madison Hts area, my favorite pet food store is there on 11mile and John R called The Pet Beastro! Only the best stuff, the owner is extremely picky with what she carries!!

| Hey, Wellness 95% meat is great as food topper. However, it even says on the back of the can that it isn't actually intended to be used as a sole source of dog food for an extended period of time. If it helps her eat--by all means I do (my mother-in-law spoils my Yorkies with it when she puppysits), but just make sure that she is still eating a lot of kibble. Keep in mind though, that Wellness has a canned/wet puppy food as well. |

| When my Suzi was a puppy I use to mix her kibble in with the wet food, same brand, but the canned food had a high amount of protein . SOmetimes, the puppy will want to eat more of the caned food and decide not to eat he kibble as well anymore. If you decide to mix the kibble , be sure to mix it well. They tend to pick out the kibble and only eat the canned.

| It's a good topper, the beef and chicken should be a little cheaper. Evo, Evangers, and Tripett makes 5.5 to 6 oz cans, which keeps the topper fresher, since you're not storing the open 13 oz can as long. |
