Wellnesss CORE review – dry dog food and treats

Wellness CORE review

My thoughts on the Wellness CORE products:

Wellness CORE is a grain-free line of food for dogs and cats including dry food, canned food, treats and air-dried raw food. In this post, we’re focusing on the dry dog food and the treats.

The dry food from Wellness CORE is actually my go-to dry dog food brand so Ace and Remy are very familiar with Wellness CORE. They love it!

I often feed my dogs raw food, but I always have dry dog food on hand. Wellness CORE is my top choice; we have it on autoship with Chewy.

The Pure Rewards treats and the Marrow Roasts treats are grain-free treats made in the USA and high in protein.

  • The Pure Rewards are soft (easy to tear) and perfect for doggie training sessions.
  • The Marrow Roasts (pictured below) are soft biscuits perfect as a single reward or to stuff in a medium or small Kong.

Ace and Remy love both these treats but really went nuts over the Pure Rewards.

Your dogs can try these treats too. Just leave a comment below to enter our giveaway!

What is the cost?

Wellness CORE products are available online through Chewy.com, Petco, PetSmart, Amazon and more.

You can also purchase directly at a Petco or PetSmart location. I prefer to order my dry dog food through Chewy.com and prices there are roughly:

What’s unique about Wellness CORE?

There are a lot of dog food companies out there. Some I trust. Some I don’t. Wellness is a brand I trust.

While it’s always good to read through the list of ingredients on any dog food or treats, I know everything in the Wellness CORE products are healthy for my dogs and cats.

I’ve been using the brand for a long time. When I lived in Fargo, the locally owned natural pet food store carried Wellness products long before Petco and PetSmart offered healthier options. Wellness has a good reputation and is transparent. You can’t go wrong with that.

Pros of Wellness CORE dry food and treats:

  • Real meat as the first ingredients
  • Made with real, pronounceable and recognizable ingredients
  • Grain free (dogs generally don’t need grains)
  • Uses natural preservatives
  • Contains no animal by-products
  • The marketing on the packaging is accurate to the actual ingredients!
  • Easily available online and at Petco and PetSmart
  • Re-sealable packaging on the food and treats

Cons

  • The price of the food will be a bit higher if you’re used to a lesser-quality brand.
  • Wellness offers so many food options overall (CORE is just one line) that it’s easy to get overwhelmed! I’ve stuck with the CORE line and have been happy with it.

Would I buy this food?

Yes, I already buy the Wellness CORE dry food for my dogs. I plan to keep buying it as it is my “go to” dry dog food brand. They also make dry and canned food for cats, for anyone interested.

Would I recommend Wellness CORE to others?

Yes. Wellness is a brand I trust, and I’ve fed their dry and canned food to my pets for years. I recommend the CORE products because I know the majority of dog owners prefer to feed dry dog food and this is a high-quality option. The food is grain free (no corn, soy, etc.), high in protein and made with high-quality ingredients.

Big fan of wellness core grain free kibble. My dog has been eating is since he was a puppy he's 4 now. We do have to mix it with other items these days to keep him interested because he's spoiled. This giveaway sounds like a great mix. So pick Gunner for your new treats

My 14 1/2-year-old golden retriever, Molly, loves Core Wellness large breed. And she is doing better on this then she has on any other dog food!
