Wellness

Anyone heard if Wellness Simple Solutions has, well, CHANGED their "solution"??? Turner has been on this for years, now suddenly he is having an allergic reaction to something! Nothing is different in his lfe, but I did notice that the SIZE of the kibble changed a while back. Now I'm wondering if something else changed. Sigh. Finding another food will NOT be easy.

we went from that and canidae to natural balance sweet potatoe and venison.........gandolphs poops and skin issues have been great....the coats are much better on it too

I've tried both Canidae and Natural Balance in the past, but didn't help.

Wellness states they have not made a change, but I KNOW the size and color did change a bit several months back.

Our experiences say that yes...if it's changed colors and size they have made changes, so I hear you. I HATE when they do that, especially since they don't tell you until months later even when you call them!

My parents sell pet food (although Sam is on a raw diet), and it is my understanding that a pet food company has 6 months from the time they change the formula until they have to change the label. I hope you find the answer...these allergies are hard enough to deal with without knowing exactly what's in the food...and people food isn't great about it either. Oh, and technically changes could have been made without even affecting the ingredient list... Ingredients are only listed according to the most down to the least. If there is a higher percentage of chicken than any other ingredient, and it is 35% chicken, they could lower the chicken to 25% and still leave it as the first ingredient as long as no other single ingredient was more than 25%. Does that make sense? And even though chicken may be the first ingredient, it may not actually be what there is the most of. If the label lists chicken, wheat, white rice, carrots, beef, brown rice, for example, you may actually be getting MORE rice overall than chicken. There are a some definite labeling "loopholes" :crazy:

Looks like TOTW Pacific Stream has some minor changes in dry, and big changes in wet. I have not opened the new bag yet, but did the can last night.
