Wellness CORE Puppy Original
for Small to Medium Breeds

Wellness CORE Puppy food is truly focused on the growth and development of small and medium breed puppies. The nutrient requirements of puppies can be up to five times adult levels, so puppy foods typically contain higher amounts of protein, fat, fatty acids, and vitamins to aid in the growth and development of the animal.

Why choose Wellness CORE Puppy Original for your Puppies?

• High quality proteins support the rapid growth phase of puppies as they are an optimal source of essential amino acids which are vital to muscle development.
• Calcium & Phosphorous to support bone development
• Long-chain Omega-3 fatty acids, DHA & EPA to support brain & eye development
• Balanced nutrients for optimal energy
• Crafted with antioxidants to support strong immune systems

Available in 1.5kg and 10kg.

Feeding Guidelines & Recommendations

What type of puppies does this recipe suit?
This recipe is recommended for puppies that will be under 25kg as a full-grown adult.

Weaning
As for the feeding guide, we do not have a recommended amount for puppies under 2 months as each puppy is different so optimal feeding amounts may vary with size, breed, and environment.

The weaning process varies significantly depending on size of litter, age of weaning, how much solid food vs mothers milk consumed and each puppies weight.

Simply add water to the kibble to make a paste to introduce the food to the puppies. We suggest offering the food in small quantities at first and increase where necessary.

Wellness CORE Puppy Original
for Large Breeds

One of the most important considerations when selecting the best puppy food for a large breed dog is avoiding excesses and providing well rounded nutrition.

Large breed puppies typically have a genetic tendency to grow too quickly, and this can sometimes result in incomplete skeletal development and lifelong joint issues.

It is critical to control the growth rate of these larger puppies with the appropriate number of calories and tightly regulated levels of calcium and phosphorus.

Wellness CORE Large Breed Puppy Original supports strong muscles and bone development with optimal levels of calcium & high-quality protein ingredients. As large breed puppies take longer to mature, our recipe is formulated to ensure a steady, healthy rate of growth by nutritionally supporting balanced muscular and skeletal development.

Why choose Wellness CORE Large Breed Puppy Original for your Puppies?

• High quality proteins support the rapid growth phase of puppies as they are an optimal source of essential amino acids which are vital to muscle development.
• Specifically adjusted levels of Calcium & Phosphorous to support and manage bone development of Large Breed Puppies
• Increased levels of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulphate for joint health in growing Large Breed Puppies
• Taurine to support heart health
• Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA to support brain and eye development
• Increased kibble size to encourage slower eating

Available in 2.75kg and 10kg.
