Is this food okay for senior dogs?

There are 8 different formulas that you can chose from. My 4 month old retriever is on the Ultra mix. Food is natural and grain free. I have been very pleased with this product and plan to continue using this brand for the lifespan of my dog. KP

Blue Buffalo wilderness dog food is an excellent brand. But feeding a three-month-old puppy adult dog food is something you're going to have to ask your veterinarian about. You can even call them up and ask one over the phone I'm sure they'll answer no charge.

Yes, but be sure to watch her so it does get stuck in her mouth. Don't put her in her crate with it, for ex.You might look at "senior" (softer than regular) Greenies. As with the C.E.T. ones, do watch her; I wouldn't recommend them, however, as I feel they are unsafe. mb (ps - love the userid!)

Yes. This dog food is made from real fish and no by-products. We give our 80lb pit-mastiff with skin issues about 3-4 cups a day of it! Our Doxie eats it too

Definitely. I foster for a Rottweiler rescue organization and take care of all ages, from 6 weeks old to adults. All of them are on Taste of the Wild (TOW puppy food for the youngsters). To transition to any new food, always mix the foods to avoid digestive upsets: (Example) 25% new food for 2 days; then 50% new food for 2 days; then 75% new food for 2 days. This is just a guide; if signs of soft stools or diarrhea, stay with the low % of the new food for additional days.

My dog is a 5.5 pitbull when i was giving him bully max i did notice when he would walk up the steps his back and neck were more muscular. It gave him diarrhea so i stopped giving it to him. I recommend boiling chicken and giving him boiled chicken and raw egg mixed in his food. Dont dump the chicken broth feed him that too. Just try upping his protein intake and making sure hes getting daily exercise. Depending on how old he is it might just be how its going to be. Just like when we get old taking body building supplements isnt going to do much when your 90 lol. Good luck. Talk to your vet about options.

As long as they are not gaining weight with the amounts you are providing them you should be good to go. I add a little Wellness canned turkey to my pom and papillons meals with a little warm water and they love it. This is such a great dog food for small breeds.

I don't know for sure, sorry. We don't use this food anymore. Just not a favorite for our dog. She loved it at first, but not so much now. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

I would say absolutely, esp older pets. It has helped my dogs immensely. Great product and I am a repeat customer.

I think it is, but even regardless of that, I DO NOT recommend this product. One of my dogs eats everything and did not like these.

Well for my black lab mix, my vet said she could no longer have dry food. She will be 13 in two months, wellness super5 senior mix works well for her. I had tried other wet foods but they gave her some stomach upset, i'm sure I don't need to give detailed info on that.

I am not sure. I have used the other dog food they have and changed to this grain-free and have had no problems. Or rather my dogs have had no problems with the swithch. When our vet realized we fed our 2 dogs this dog food he said to keep it up. Our dogs are not fat and do not get sick!

Yes, the product is specifically formulated for senior dogs. Not gender specific, either. Definitely worth a try.

Absolutely! I moved my 4 dogs from Wellness small breed to Core and made sure that I slowly transitioned from 1 food to the other, even though I was still feeding a Wellness food. In the same way, I recently transferred 1 of my dogs from Wellness Core to their senior small breed formula. Within the first few days, I forgot (one day) and gave straight senior formula to this one dog and she had diarrhea...back to the slow transition!

Wow, that is very odd. My dog is fine with this food, but is fussy from time to time so I switch it up with PRIMAL FORMULA brand, and also give the Stella's Surf and Turf and the chicken. Why not call the phone number on the package for more information from the company' maybe they could shed some light on it.

I have honestly never tasted this food myself, however my dogs have been eating it for years and seem to like it fine. This IS great dog food though, and my dogs are incredibly healthy. If you want your dog to eat the food, I would "jazz it up" with some yogurt, coconut oil, or my pups personal favorite mushroom gravy.For the mushroom gravy, I mix MUSH (link below) with a little water and put it on their food; they go crazy for it.MUSH Medicinal Mushroom Blend 125 gram

From the Wellness website http://www.wellnesspetfood.com/product-details.aspx?pet=dog&pid;=53#feeding-guidelines(LBS) CUPS/DAY46-65 2 - 2 ½66-85 2 ½ - 3If I did the math right, a 30 lb (480 oz) bag of food with a daily serving of 2.5 cups (20 oz) would last approximately 24 servings. That would be about a months worth of food. They also have a senior formula that might be more appropriate for his age as well.
