Small Dog with a Big Appetite? Fuel the Small Breed Boom with Wellness Core

 

Small Breeds, Big Opportunity

 

The UK pet market is seeing a surge in small breed dog ownership, wth compact canines now the most popular size group among dog owners. This shift is creating a growing demand for nutrition tailored to their unique needs. For independent pet retailers and small chains, this presents a valuable opportunity - stocking a dedicated small breed range that speaks directly to this expanding customer base.

 

Wellness CORE Small breed (available in both wet and dry varieties) is designed specifically for smaller dogs, and offers a premium, functional solution that supports health, vitality, and taste appeal all in one bowl.

 

Tailored Nutrition for Smaller Dogs

 

Small breed dogs require more energy per kilo of body weight than their larger counterparts, and Wellness CORE Small Breed delivers slightly higher protein levels to meet this need. The kibble is smaller too, which supports easier chewing and is ideal for promoting better oral hygiene, a big consideration giving the dental vulnerabilities of small breeds. Alongside this, the recipe includes targeted functional ingredients such as cranberry, to support urinary health, and a boosted level of glucosamine and chondoitrin, chosen to help protect their joints and spine under the strain of those short but hardworking legs. All these features come together to offer a highly palatable, nutrient-rich diet that's particularly appealing to fussy small dogs, a common trait in this group.
