Why is there CHICKEN in a food that is labeled as WILD GAME?? My dog has recently started breaking out and is very itchy. Nothing the vet has prescribed has worked. It's gotta be the chicken!!


Are ALL the ingredients sourced in the USA. I see a lot of food produced in the USA to me that does NOT mean the ingredients all came from inside the USA Its just means the food was put together and packaged in the USA please clarify.

Answer by ChewyDec 24, 2018
This recipe is manufactured Indiana and the ingredients are primarily sourced in the United States depending on availability. However, certain ingredients will need to be outsourced (i,e: Lamb, Venison, Duck, Rabbit, Vitamin Packs, etc.) to ensure top quality and freshness, while meeting a reasonable price point for pet parents. Lastly, the Green Tea Extract and Mixed Tocopherols (a portion of them) are sourced from reputable suppliers in China.

Do you have to keep this food in the refrigerator?

Answer by ChewyJun 22, 2018
It is recommended to store this food in a cool, dry place.

How many mgs of glucosamine/chondroitin are in this food per cup? I'm trying to figure out how much/if I need to reduce the supplement I give my dog for her joints. Our vet recommended that she get at least 500mgs of glucosamine per day and she eats a cup of dry food per day.

Answer by ChewyAug 02, 2018
This formula contains 250 milligrams of Glucosamine (minimum) per cup.

This dog food is a MUST

This food is AMAZING! My two years old pit bull has had allergies since we got him. The vet claimed he had yeast in his ears and recommended we change our dog food

This food is AMAZING! My two years old pit bull has had allergies since we got him. The vet claimed he had yeast in his ears and recommended we change our dog food. We decided to switch brands and test out different flavors, however none of them seemed to work. I always wanted to find a more convenient way to purchase dog food without the hassle of remembering to buy it and that’s why I decided to search on Chewy. Ever since I been feeding him this food, I noticed GREAT results within just one week! His pads on his paws are more softer, his allergies seem to have toned down, if not, have completely been cured because of this food! Not only that, my pit bull seems to LOVE this food and his coat is so much softer and shinier. I’ve never seen him this happy when I asked him “are you ready to eat?”. Highly satisfied, I’m never switching.

Wellness Core Wild Game RawRev

My dog was already eating Core Wild Game dry food.. when Chewy had a sale on RawRev I decided to try after reading reviews ..ingredients etc. My dog loves Wild Game

My dog was already eating Core Wild Game dry food.. when Chewy had a sale on RawRev I decided to try after reading reviews ..ingredients etc. My dog loves Wild Game even more now. Some people complained that there was very little of real raw kibbles but, my 12 pound bag is loaded with them. I mixed small amount from new bag with regular Wild Game bag I had to transition slowly.. plenty of raw kibbles through out whole bag. (No gastro issues - transition) If you break down cost per week ..I am paying approximately $2.00-3.00 per week to feed my dog Premium Dog Food. My dog weighs 13 pounds so for me this is an amazing deal ..

Yum Yum Yum for Wellness Core RawRev

This is the best food to my Rosey Mae! She thinks she is getting a bowl full of treats. I bought the Wellness Core RawRev Wild Game & Zignature Limited Ingredient

This is the best food to my Rosey Mae! She thinks she is getting a bowl full of treats. I bought the Wellness Core RawRev Wild Game & Zignature Limited Ingredient Formula Lamb. She turns her nose up to the Zignature so I have to return it. She is a happy & smiling girl & loves her food! Her favorite part is the freeze dried rabbit....which is what she is looking for in the azalea bush pictured below, lol, run rabbit run!! I feel good knowing my old Rosey (she is 12) is getting nourishment & acting years younger. Before Core RevRaw she was on Taste of the Wild but had grown tired of it. Only the best for my Girl.

My dogs love this food, and they have very healthy stools, so I keep buying it. What I don't like is that the kibble size is different from batch to batch, and so is the amount of freeze-dried meat shreds. Some bags have very little, while others seem like you get what you pay for. When paying a premium price, you should get ample freeze-dried shreds. Overall, the food is great. The brand needs to work on consistency in their product.

My 8yo MinSchnauz absolutely LOVES this food. I was a little hesitant to try the food because I wasn’t sure whether my pup would pick out the meat and leave the kibbles, but after reading that the kibbles were also protein-rich (duck, lamb, wild boar and rabbit), I decided to give it a try. She has a sensitive stomach and has had poop issues with the last few brands I’ve tried, but this one has been great for her. She definitely has more energy and her skin and coat is healthier than ever.

Way more kibble than freeze dried

3 stars instead of 2 due to quality kibble that did not have a strong smell. But because I was transitioning I bought only a 4 pound bag. I did not empty it into a bin. There was enough freeze dried for them to be interested and ate the kibble too. Since my dogs are mini dachshunds the kibble was a bit big but they weren’t bothered by that. I was sure expecting more freeze dried pieces for the cost of this food. I will try one more bag to see if they will eat the whole amount and none of their old kibble.

We have a 11 month old eastern German Shepherd would is a very picky eater. He ate wellness core large breed puppy food from the first day we got him. Then about a month ago he stopped eating and no matter what we did we just couldn’t get him to eat. So we tried wellness core raw rev and now he is eating normal again. He loves it.

I never write reviews but I’ve been feeding wellness to my dogs since they were puppies (they are 2 now) and switched them from the core line to the raw rev about 6 months ago because one of them is super picky and I was having to put toppers on his food. They truly love the raw rev and get excited everytime I feed them. They are working ranch dogs and are very high energy and this food definitely supports their lifestyle! Their coats are amazing, soft and shiny! One of my dogs has allergies and this food has always helped him with that! About a month ago I moved and couldn’t get to town and was waiting on my internet to get set up so I was forced to feed them a different food (purina ONE) for a few weeks and I swear the difference in their coats and energy level was truly astonishing in even that short time. That’s when I knew that Wellness foods are the real deal and worth the price. Hope this helps someone!

I used to feed my dogs Natural Balance, and switched to Wellness Core RawRev on a whim. My dogs LOVE this food, and my Heeler will drool incessantly once he realizes the food is coming to his bowl. The bag has little freeze-dried pieces in it, and are my dogs' favorite thing about this food. Each bag is different though; sometimes you get a good balance of kibble to freeze-dried, sometimes, you get more kibble and you're left wondering where the rest of it went. I recommend buying Wellness Core Bowl Boosters in addition to this bag if your dog loves the freeze-dried bits like mine do. Also, I noticed that, since switching my dogs to this brand from Natural Balance, my Heeler is no longer pooping out rock-hard turds, so, it apparently sits alot better with his digestion in that regard!

Low moisture causes kidney issues?

I gave this 5 stars because #1 My 15 yr old Weim loves it. #2 It is much easier to feed him than the 100% frozen raw he was eating and wasnt crazy about. #3 It makes traveling with food so much easier! However, I noticed he has been drinking water like crazy and also had a couple of accidents. I was told that the low moisture content of kibbles puts stress on their kidneys. So I've begun to soften it with water. Scout is still drinking lots of water...Has anyone else had experience with this?
