Nutrience Care Calm & Comfort is specifically formulated for dogs with hyperactivity and anxiety-related behaviors and sensitivities. This food helps to reduce signs of anxiety in dogs and stimulates the production of serotonin and dopamine which are important for mood regulation, alleviating dominance aggression signs in dogs. Dopamine is also an important nutrient for attention and focus for easier training. In addition to caring for your dog’s special needs, we’ve taken great strides to ensure their care is delivered in the form of a high-quality, gluten-free diet, made of healthy, wholesome ingredients.
The importance of a good digestive system and healthy gut flora cannot be overstated when it comes to proper nutrient absorption. That’s why every bag of Nutrience Care® includes Digestiboost – made with ingredients like pumpkin, chicory root, turmeric and ginger to help support overall gut health.

TRANSITIONING TO NUTRIENCE

Remi is a small 3-year-old Boston Terrier. Since he’s very active, we needed to give him a balanced diet suited for his lifestyle. Given that he’s not voracious, we had to go through 5 different food brands, but he would turn his nose up on all of them. Remi could even go 2 days without eating his food. When we got Watson, Remi kept steeling his food instead of eating his own. So, I decided to buy him Nutrience and Remi started to eat his food ravenously! It has now been 6 months, and Remi eats all his feedings. Sometimes, I even need to put his food in a slow feeding bowl, and I NEVER thought I would have to do that! Remi has never had such a lovely and healthy fur, and that much energy!
Amazing !!
Amazing !! My dog loves it !!
My furbaby Mya loves this food. I've tried a few of these and she loves them all. 🥰
Good food my dog lovee it !!
Charlee, 12-lb Morkie Poo, loves Nutrience Care, Calm & Comfort! This was a change from her regular food and she ate every morsel in her bowl.
First of all my little girl has got to be the fussiest dog to feed. She is a small Shichon and weighs between 18-20 lbs. She only likes dried liver and chicken or duck strips anything else the nose goes up in the air, very spoiled by her dad has lots of upset bellies and eating lots of grass so I was truly wishing she would eat the calm and comfort but nope. I tried the soft food and nope. I really wanted this to work so maybe her stomach would be ok. So I invented a new game with her called buttons and taught her how to catch her food in the air, so I measure out her daily amount hide a few for her to find and we take turns in the morning and evening playing buttons with her. No more stomach upsets , her skin allergies have even calms down but nothing will ever slow this old girl down. She turns 10 on Feburary 12th, 2022 and still is busy and bossy. Thank you. Donna
I have a older dog. Who seems to become cery very picky eater. I gave the calm foid a try an she loved it. She is up to three small meals a day. Thank you so much for letting us try it. She loves evey bite
On a adopté notre chienne Michonne, au SPCA, en décembre 2019. Depuis ce temps là, on essaye de trouver une nourriture qu'elle s'adapte, car on ne connaissait pas ses habitudes alimentaires. Des le premier instante, on a constaté qui ça serait une tache très difficile: elle ne mangeait pas de nourriture à chien. Nutrience calme et confort a été une merveilleuse découverte! On a compris qu'elle soufrait de l'anxiété et son acceptation à Nutrience fut rapide. Aujourd'hui, elle est une chienne heureuse et en santé. Merci Nutrience!
Both of my dogs really like this product.
This product is amazing and works exactly as it should. My american bulldog is a very hyper dog and after giving him this calming food he really did cool his jets and relax for awhile which was nice lol. I recommend this product to anyone who has a pet who is hyper active
Amazing 👏 My dog loves it
Our dog loves Nutrience care!
Our dogs love this food!
My dog loves this product. Definitely will be buying. All we do is shake the bag and he comes running. Highly recommend
Our dog loves this. As she's a bit picky with texture and size, we were a bit concerned about the bigger kibble. But as soon as she figured it out it became an instant hit. Highly recommended.
My dog loves this food. She has a sensitivity to chicken so it's nice to find a brand that has options without chicken byproduct.
Charlie Brown just loves calm and comfort. He gets more excited over this kibble than his usual treats!
Our dog is a Jindo/Jack Russell mix. She likes really enjoys the Calm & Comfort Nutrience kibbles. I would recommend this product.
My dog really enjoyed the food no fussing. Highly recommend
This helped keep my dog calm. I will totally recommend this dog food
hi - tried this Care Calm & Comfort with our 15 year old Bichon/Shih Tzu little guy as the food he was on for many years wasnt working for him - he is loving it and seems less prone to being agitated than before - thanks!
My dog Teddy is a very picky eater and he loves nutrients. We love knowing he's getting all of the nutrition he needs to keep him happy and healthy.
My dog loves this food. I notice a difference in her right away.
My GSD is generally a finicky eater but he really loves this kibble
My pets absolutely loved the taste of this food more than any other brand we have ever tried.
My dogs hair instantly improved
Phil loves his Calm & Comfort formula. He comes running when he hears the bag crinkle! As a new rescue dog he can get anxious and scared, this formula has calmed him when life gets crazy!
My dogs loved this product, I was a little concerned that it was a bigger kibble, as they are both little dogs, but that didn't hinder then devouring this. As they are both terriers, I am always looking for something to calm them.
My dogs love this dog food, I will recommend it to my Family and Friends .
Loved the care , calm & comfort food. Scout loves it

Delicious taste, ate every bite, always excited for more. Meal Time is the best time.
Buttons loved this calm and comfort formula. She’s so picky with other stuff but this one, she almost want to eat it most of the time. Buying it right away for her. Recommended to my friend’s pets as well.
Great food - my dog absolutely loves it! Will be buying more!
My Dogs love it
We stumbled upon your dog food as our boy was having digestive issues. As soon as he started with your Digestive one he was good. Duke is a 2year old pup who can be very hyper and anxious as he is part lab and part belgian shepard, so we received a sample of you Calm and Comfort and have now switched him over to it. It seems to have helped him to be a bit more calm. Thank you Nutrience for helping us, help our pup
We switched my dog to Nutrience after bad reactions to other brand name dog foods. Everything about her health, coat and energy levels got so much better! She is happy and healthy and after 3 years, still loves this food as much as the first day!!
My cats and dogs both love this brand
My dog loved this food! Couldn't get enough. It is a bit pricy but you get what you pay for in my opinion!
Bailey absolutely loved this brand! We just got a new puppy as well and have them both switched over:)
Hank loves this food!! Only food he’ll eat as soon as the bowl goes down lol
my 2 great Danes nutrients dry dog food they can't enough of it l it a little pricy but it is one of the best dry food for their health, very much worth the cost
I received the Calm & Comfort formula and opened it immediately upon receiving. Skylar was anything BUT calm trying to dive into the bag! She gobbled it up immediately! Needless to say she LOVED it! Will be putting it on her menu as she is an anxious dog! Thank you so much for the sample!
Akira is a very anxious active dog and we have noticed a positive decline in some of her anxious behaviors like chewing ar her feet, which is so awesome!
My dog loves the Nutrience weight control dry dog food. It keeps her satisfied and isn't so hungry all the time. I can see the difference in her hips
Wow Mon chien adore Il ne boude plus sa nourriture. Il adore
I love the entire nutrience line and have used it for much of my dog's lives. Currently the dog I am feeding this to is eating nutrience prairie red and I have been adding this as half of her breakfast meals for the past few months. She is a rescue and has had quite bad separation anxiety the whole time we have had her. It's calmed down a lot but she still whines when we leave and doesn't fully calm down all the time. Now even using a bit of this I notice she is able to actually lie down and sleep, which she has rarely done before. That is very exciting for me and I would give it five stars but the only reason I didn't was because the meat ingredient is chicken. She is slightly sensitive to chicken and can only have a bit of or it will give her stomach upset, thus the reason for only half her morning meal being this food. I would give 5 star if they gave a fish or beef option in this for sure. Hoping they come out with some options for dogs with chicken sensitivities!
I don't know if it helps with my dog's anxiety as she is much more on the side of anxious and does act out often but she does love to eat it!
Molly loves Nutrience Sub Zero formula for puppies
Gilbert loved the kibble. He gobbled it up as soon as it was in his dish.
All nutrience food is amazing but the calm food is really good. It helps when you have a hyperactive dog.
My dog tried the Nutrience + Care and she loooved it! She usually doesn’t like any other food then the Prairie one.
Nutrience has done it again . Every product my dogs have tried they have loved .
Rusty our dog likes the dry food and it is working to keep him calm
I used to feed my dog a different brand of dry dog food and he was okay with it and I applied for the free Nutrience dog food sample for digestion and the day I received the sample and my dog tasted it he was eating it and loving it at the same time. He can't seem to get enough of it and I notice a difference in my dog and I tried a different kind of nutrience and he loves it all. My dog looks forward to his mealtimes now and he eats every bite.
Best dog food! Always love nutrience product! Love the freeze bites!
My potcake recently tried calm comfort by nutrience and loved it. He is very fussy about dry dog food, I usually have to mix the kibble with wet food in order for him to eat it, however I didn’t with nutrience. He gobbled it up no time flat. I would highly recommend it
My dog absolutely loves this food! I have bought it many times and will keep rebuying!
My shiba Inu puppy is very fussy when it comes to kibble. But he enjoys eating this recipe from Nutrience! Super happy we came across this!
My dog loves this food. He can be choosey with new foods but immediately went for it. He looks forward to receiving his food every day, something he previously did not really do. He has always suffered with anxiety and is quite high strong. He is a Jack Russell and quite hyper. I have noticed since feeding this food over the past few weeks that his anxiety has gone down and he’s calmer in situations that used to cause him to be highly anxious. We love this food. He loves the taste and I love that it gives him some relief from anxiety.
My dog loves this food! He can be picky when it comes to food, which can make it difficult with his sensitive stomach and pork allergy. However, he went absolutely crazy over Nutrience! I love never seen him get so excited over a food, and it also meets his dietary needs! :)
My dog loved this food. The difference in his demeanor was noticeable and he was much more calm shortly after eating it. Anxiety is a problem for him, and this helped that! I will definitely purchase in the future.
Moxie loves her nutrience + calm and comfort i switched her to. She really seems less nervous since she started eating it. Thanks nutrience from me and Moxie!
My dog loves calm & comfort, I highly recommend it for your fur friends if they have an easy upset stomach
My dog is super picky and she loves this food. Finally a food that I feel good feeding her. It also helped with her anxiety. She is usually scared of everything and now shes less stressed.
My pup loves it and we will be switching her daily food to this consistently!
My pup loves it and we will be switching her daily food to this consistently!
The calm+comfort line has been great for our anxious border collie! She has always been very picky with her kibble but this one is a winner! We give her a mix of the wet food and kibble.
I am transitioning my puppy from puppy food to Calm and Comfort dry dog food. Holly likes it so much that she will pick through her food and eat the Nutrience brand first.
My dog Annie really loves the Calm and Comfort food and so do I. There has been a noticeable improvement in her anxiety level since she has been eating it. I highly recommend it to anyone who has an anxious pet.
My dog is a picky eater, but he loves this stuff! Happy to find a healthy option that he enjoys.
My dog loves this food. I highly recommend it for a fussy eater.
We noticed a huge difference with anxiety when we would leave the house after changing to this food. We are so beyond grateful that we have been given the opportunity to ensure our girl has the best possible life. With this food that is even more possible. Thank you Nutrience for helping our family!
Sierra did well with the new Care formula, but we have switched back to SubZero as she prefers it. I also love that your products contain probiotics as she does suffer from colitis.
I have a very anxious mixed breed husky. He just loves this food and it seems to help his anxiety.
My dog loves nutrience.
Murphy loves it. Always wants more!

My dogs loves it so much! He seems to be a lot more relaxed then usual!
Amazing, my dog loves it.
My dogs love this stuff! It works great for them and they eat every little bit in the bowl!
All I can say is WOW!! Meal time is now exciting at our house and I really see a difference in my dog's anxiousness. I couldn't be happier. Thank you Nutrience for creating this food, you've really made a difference in my little Rocco's life!
