I own a 15 year old dog and was only recently introduced to this Wellness brand when I adopted two cats.  The shelter highly recommended this brand for both dogs and cats, and it is what they feed all their shelter guests.  I purchased some for my dog and she loves it, gobbles it right down.  Wellness comes in a variety of recipes and while my dog prefers this version which is finally chopped and minced, Wellness does carry a version that contains whole ingredients, chunks of meat, peas etc.  But my older lady simply likes this version.
