Are you feeding your dog the right balance?
t’s a question we all, as dog
owners, ask ourselves. Whilst
we may look at our own diets
and strive to eat as healthily
as we can, are we doing the
same for our pets?
Dr Danielle Bernal is a global expert on
canine nutrition, member of the Royal College
of Veterinary Surgeons and - with over a
decade’s experience in veterinary medicine
specialising in animal nutrition - is an expert on
understanding how what we choose to feed
our dog impacts their health and wellbeing.
“Just like humans, every dog is different
to the next one, however when you walk
into a pet store, owners cannot help but feel
overwhelmed by the wide range of food on
offer,” describes Dr Bernal. “With so much
variety to choose from, so many owners
remark that they feel a little lost as to what is
right for their pet. The key thing to remember
is to select a brand that focuses on the perfect
balance of high protein, moderate fats and
lowered carbohyDrates - which will help you
support your animal’s health and wellbeing.”
This unique combination will deliver dogs
the very best nutrition, based on what their
species were designed to eat but also
importantly, nutrition that is also tailored to
their lifestyle of today.
Dr Bernal is an advocate of Wellness CORE,
a natural dog food which offers 100% pure,
protein rich, grain free and balanced nutrition.
Developed by WellPet, a family-owned
company that’s been innovating natural dog
food since 1926, Wellness CORE is a brand
that is highly trusted across the globe for
its commitment to quality, their passion for
pursuing innovation and best of all for their
proven success in promoting superior canine
health not only the show ring, but also in family
homes all around the world.
“CORE’s balanced approach to nutrition is

just what is required for today’s healthy dog,”
explains Dr Bernal. “Take the Chihuahua – it
simply doesn’t need to be a eating a high
caloric wolf diet nor will it really thrive on a
recipe with over 50% of the finished food being
made up of carbohydrates,” says Dr Bernal.
“It can be tricky to achieve the right balance
of protein, carbs and fats in your pet’s diet
– plus animals’ needs alter over time; but
a meat-rich, balanced approach to canine
nutrition is one that works across a dog’s
lifespan and the various stages of their life.”
The positive health benefits of CORE dog
food are plentiful, from the puppy stage
right through to the more mature years, and
include improved athleticism and supporting
skeletal muscle.
CORE uses fresh meat or fish as its number
one ingredient in all Dry recipes, and replaces
all grains and cheap fillers with higher quality
animal proteins like fresh turkey or salmon
which are then combined with the perfect
selection of nutritional fruit and vegetables;
meaning more easily digestible food and
better all-round nutrition.
Dr Bernal explains the important role of
dietary protein: “Dietary protein is needed to
build hair, skin, muscles, cartilage, tendons
and ligaments. Protein also makes the
enzymes that support all metabolic reactions,
the hormones that act as the body’s chemical
messengers and antibodies that comprise the
immune system”.
“With this dietary protein key to all its foods
in the CORE range, CORE is scientifically
proven to support the wellbeing of dogs
across all breeds and research has
consistently shown a diet rich in high meat
protein will ensure a more glossy coat and
healthier digestive system as well as all-
round improved wellbeing in a dog,” says
Dr Bernal.
To really focus on the importance of
the right nutritional balance for your dog,
CORE is even offering free expert nutritional
consultation to pet owners attending Crufts
this year. Dr Bernal will be on the CORE stand
at Crufts 2019 to talk to visitors with their pets
and giving expert advice on what you should
be feeding your breed, and why.
“At Crufts I will be available on the CORE
stand to look at different breeds, listen to
their owners and assess their nutritional
requirements. I look forward to meeting as
many four legged friends as possible.” Dr
Bernal concludes.
For almost a century, WellPet has
researched the right nutritional combination
for dogs, creating a 100% natural, grain free
and protein rich complete meal.
Owners can trust CORE to take care of
the food, so they can focus on enjoying a
happier, healthier life for their dog.
