Wellness CORE Natural Wet Grain Free Canned Dog Food, Whitefish, Salmon & Herring, 12.5-Ounce Can (Pack of 12)

My Leonberger has always been fed high quality dry dog food and has maintained a consistent weight and energy level for 12 years, but during his last checkup he had lost about 5 pounds of muscle mass which besides his age, I attributed this to his recent lack of interest in eating. He knows he's part of the family and when we sat down to eat, he'd go to his bowl and eat too, but he started eating less so I wanted to add an incentive for him to eat more by mixing wet food in with the dry. He's still loves his long walks and chasing squirrels around the yard so I wanted to make sure he was getting enough nutrition and calories as well as drinking plenty of water to support his level of activity. I researched many brands and Wellness Core always came out on top with regard to nutritional value for older dogs. It costs quite a bit more than other canned dog foods, but if you compare the ingredients you'll see that it's worth it. It has a paté like consistency versus brands that have meat chunks and gravy, so it takes about a minute to mix in half a can with about 2 cups of dry food but that allows it to stick to the dry food better and keeps him from eating too fast.

All 3 of my dogs absolutely love this food!! Does actually smell like its fish products and not just another can of dog food. Since feeding them this food, their coats have improved and less SHEDDING!
