Recipes for Small Breeds
Adult Dogs under 10kg
As experienced breeders, you will understand that the nutritional requirements of small breeds are very different to larger dogs so it’s important to consider these when choosing the right food.
Small Breeds have a higher energy need per kg than that of the larger breeds which needs to be considered when selecting a food.
They are also more predisposed to common health issues such as dental disease and obesity, both of which are a direct result of what we feed them.
Selecting a nutrition that is tailored to their unique needs is one of the best ways to ensure that every small breed dog enjoys a lifetime of wellbeing.

Tips for Small Breed Dogs
- Monitor how much you feed - it's easy to overfeed without noticing. Make sure to follow the feeding guides and adjust where necessary.
- Watch their weight - Just a half a pound weight gain can represent a significant issue, switch to the Wellness CORE Small Breed Low Fat recipe which is perfectly crafted with lowered fat and calories to help trim them down.
- Create a daily dental care routine - although the smaller, crunchier kibble will contribute to their dental care, include brushing their teeth or giving an appropriate dental chew treat like WHIMZEES Daily Dental Treats to keep their teeth pearly white.
