Greate product!

I did not have luck with other brands while introducing my dog to fish. We are going through food elimination process because of food allergies, and fish is new to her. On the Advisor this product was rated 5/5 stars and was very highly recommended, so I gave it a try. Eureka, she LOVES it! I believe she knows what is the best.

Our 55 pound goldendoodle was having trouble with frequent ear infections despite cleaning and trimming etc. Our vet suggested changing her food to Wellness Core Ocean citing she could be allergic to the chicken in her kibble. What a change! Ear infections gone, minimal itching/chewing on her paws gone. Can't say she sheds any less but we are believers in this brand! Her breath does stink right after eating but not a problem otherwise. Pricey but worth it!
Pros: high quality, digestible

I use this food for my Jack Russell mix who has food allergies, and it has dramatically improved his coat, shedding, AND he's not so gassy anymore. I would recommend this food if you dog has a chicken/turkey intolerance like my little guy does, or just if you want to give your dog a nice shiny soft coat.

my german shepard has had allergies for the longest and i tried everything. while i was going thru a food trial i came across wellness core. its PERFECT!!! the ocean fish is a cool meat and therefore does not give off any extra heat in her body which raises her temperature and increases the itching. its also high in protein which keeps her energy level up. i have had NO problems with this food AT ALL. I moved to Europe and continue to order it thru the website. Allergies are the biggest pain and after finding a food that works its best to stick with it. Thank you Wellness!!

BEST FOOD!

i have a black lab and all my dog has eaten is wellness and he loves it. he's been on this adult food for about a month now and can't seem to get enough. does not get bad breath because of it(which i was worried being a fish based food). his coat is always shinier than all the other dogs at the park! even with a bigger dog(about 60lbs right now) he needs very little of it so the medium sized bag goes a long way for us.
PROS: great quality!!
CONS: price of course but still worth it anyway!

I have 6 Dogs, and they all love this food! 2 of our dogs have skin allergies, and this food has helped them dramatically! Their fur is always so shiny on this food.
My 2 senior dogs had no energy on their old food (Nutro Ultra Holistic), but after switching to Wellness Core Ocean they are like puppies again!!
The food is very expensive (especially with 6 large dogs), but it is well worth it. You can see the difference in them!
All of them love the taste. No problems getting them to eat it.
Pros: high quality, digestible, taste
Cons: price

I have my 4 year old Shih Tzu on this, seeing how she has a few food allergies, and she is doing great on this. She is quite the picky eater also, but she cleans her bowl every mealtime! The kibble does have an odor to it but I have not noticed my pooch having bad breath because of it. Thank you for a great product!
