Food question
Anybody ever tried Merrick's Before Grain or Wellness Core in the canned formulas? I'm looking for something grain free that doesn't contain rosemary (or rosemary extract, oil, etc.) since, from what I've read online, it can trigger seizures. All of the grain free kibbles that I've looked at use rosemary as a preservative. It looks like the canned BG or Core should be safe to use. I swear...I'm just going to start cooking for all of my pugs. This commercial food thing is a pain in the ass sometimes!
Re: Food question
I've used (and still use) both--but mostly Wellness Core. Great food. I like all the wellness canned stuff, but haven't had to worry about seizures except for Pippin who, turns out, didn't have a seizure disorder.
Re: Food question
BG is a good brand, although I think Wellness is a better brand. BG canned used to be 100% meat and used for a supplement only, however they have change the mix so it is now 96% meat with nutritional supplements added in for complete nutrition. I have used it for my cats since they've made the change the I'm please with it. But, I rotate foods on a continual basis.

Re: Food question
I may be off base, but was Wellness wet involved in one of the recalls? Or am I thinking of another brand? I used to feed Wellness, but stopped for some reason and I can't remember if it was from a formula change or a recall. Also, did they get bought out by a larger corp? I may be taking off the top of my head though.

Wellness & Eagle Pack merged last year & are now owned by "Wellpet". Maybe that's what you're thinking of? I'm not sure about the recall stuff. Thanks for the info! I may pick up some canned Core and give it a try but since I'm cooking for Buster now anyway, I'll probably just start making bigger batches for everyone eventually.
Re: Food question
I hear Wellness Core work well. I switch between the Chicken Stew, which is grain free but has rosemary in it and the Simple Solutions Lamb and rice formula. Lola's belly is pretty sensitive and does well on Wellness.
