Feeding Information
Transitioning to
Wellness:
It is important
to slowly transition your PUPPY
from his/her current diet as it
takes a few days for the body to
adapt to the new nutrient
levels. To transition, gradually
mix in the new food over a 5-7
day period, increasing the
amount of Wellness each day, so
that you are feeding 100%
Wellness by day 7.
How to
Feed Your Puppy
- As puppies grow up they need
to learn when, where and how to
eat. Depending on age, puppies
need to be fed at the same time
and in the same place 2-4 times
per day. Food should be removed
after 20 minutes, if not eaten.
In the beginning, puppy's food
can be moistened with a little
warm water.
Determining Feeding Portions:
Looking at the
chart below, divide the total
cups per day by the total number
of times you feed your puppy per
day to determine the portion
size for each meal. Keep a clean
bowl of fresh water available at
all times. Wellness believes in
feeding dry and wet food in
combination whenever possible to
help increase the level of water
in your puppy's diet.
Nutrition
is only one part of the
equation! Be sure to give your
puppy plenty of love, plenty of
exercise and see your
veterinarian regularly to help
ensure total wellness.

For dogs
over 125 lbs:
Add ¼ cup per additional 10 lbs.
For Pregnant or
Nursing Dogs:
Since DHA is transferred to
puppies in mother's milk, we
recommend feeding this during
pregnancy and nursing. When
pregnant, feed up to 50% more
food according to body weight at
12 mos. For nursing dogs, allow
her to eat at will.
Combination Feeding
If feeding with wet food, reduce
dry amount by 1/3 cup for every
6 oz of wet food.

-
- Wellness formulas are based on
the latest advancements in natural pet nutrition as well as help
from consumers, retailers, nutritionists, vets and of course, dogs!
DOGS LOVE THE TASTE!
Wellness has achieved a great flavor without the use of rendered
animal fat, digests, unidentified "natural flavors," salt or sugar.
WELLNESS FORMULAS ARE HIGHLY DIGESTIBLE-
Digestibility refers to the extent to which an eaten nutrient is
absorbed from the animal’s
-
digestive tract. This is the amount of energy/nutrition the dog
actually receives from the food he ingests. Wellness formulations
provide
-
substantial digestibility results. This means that dogs are
absorbing nutrients from the ingredients which provides usable
energy! Increased nutrient absorption also means reduced stool
volume and less backyard clean-up.
COMBINED, HIGH QUALITY PROTEINS-
Wellness combines real USDA grade, hormone-free, Ethoxyquin-free
proteins as their 1st ingredient
-
(chicken, lamb or ocean whitefish) with high-quality meals (chicken
or menhaden fish) made from the same source.
A FULL RAINBOW OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES-
Wellness recipes include a full rainbow of powerful natural
antioxidants, vitamins and minerals as a proactive step towards help
in fighting disease by encouraging overall cellular health. Wellness
rainbow includes: Tomatoes, Apples, Blueberries, Carrots, Sweet
Potatoes, and Spinach.
OPTIMIZED OMEGA FATTY ACID RATIOS-
Nutrient-rich fats must contribute to the optimal blend of Omega 3
and Omega 6 fatty acid ratios
-
so that fats can be converted and fully utilized by the animal's
body. The percentage level of Omega's is not as important as their
ratio
-
to each other. Wellness uses the most nutrient dense sources
of fatty acids like canola oil - the richest source of essential
Omega 3 &
-
6's and flaxseed, the richest plant source.
DHA IN PUPPY-Dietary DHA is a natural Omega 3 fatty acid
essential in the development of the brain, vision and nervous system
of young
-
mammals. AVMA research shows "that puppies nourished with enhanced
(high) levels of dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) were smarter,
more trainable than typical-DHA (low-DHA) nourished puppies." The
DHA in the Puppy Super5Mix comes from an expensive, high quality
salmon meal made from salmon located in the cold waters of the
northeast. Wellness guarantees the inclusion levels in our Puppy
Super5Mix at 0.13%.
- SUPPLEMENTAL TAURINE IN ALL FORMULAS-
Wellness
recipes include guaranteed levels of Taurine as a preventative step toward
optimal heart
health. Recent research shows that dogs, like cats, may benefit in
additional supplementation to the Taurine already found in their fresh meat.
BENEFICIAL BACTERIA IN ALL FORMULAS* -Wellness is
one of the only dog foods to include beneficial bacteria in all of our formulas.
Beneficial bacteria (also known as cultures like Lactobacillus acidophilus or
Bifidobacterium) naturally occur in the gut of your pet. They are
called
beneficial bacteria because they aid in digestion and help to inhibit the growth
and activity of disease-producing organisms. The addition
of these cultures to
our formulas helps to keep an optimum balance and helps promote a healthy
intestinal tract. *This excludes our limited ingredient diet Fish & Sweet Potato.
BOTANICAL EXTRACTS IN ALL FORMULAS*-
In addition to
Garlic, Yucca Schidigera and Chicory Root Wellness also includes the valuable
- phyto-nutrients from Green Tea Extract, one of the most powerful antioxidants
available.
*This excludes our limited ingredient diet Fish & Sweet Potato.
Each Ingredient in the Wellness recipes is thoughtfully chosen for its
nutritional benefit, providing just what pets need for a happier,
