Highlighted Reviews

β€” Nancy

"I trust this brand and have been using their dry dog food for a long time. This was my first time to switch to pate. My dog loves it."

β€” DEBORAH

"This food has Carrageenan in it which is very controversial and causes digestive issues and not safe for dogs. It made my dog sick until it got out of her system. Chewy was great and refunded my money but I was very disappointed in the product. Will stick with the regular Nutro Wet food."

Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a premium wet food option for your senior dog, Nutro Ultra is a strong contender. Just be aware of the potential ingredient sensitivities and consult with your vet.
