Why We Switched to Brothers Dog Food — And Why Our Entire Program Is Thriving Because of It

As a multi-breed program with doodles, bullies, boerboels, and service-dog prospects all under one roof, finding a truly versatile food has always been a challenge. For this past year, we fed The Honest Kitchen and genuinely loved many aspects of it. It’s wholesome, human-grade, and our dogs looked beautiful on it.
But as our program grew, we slowly realized it wasn’t meeting every need across every age, size, or sensitivity and the amount of various bags I was accumulating was…. Wild.
Puppies did well, but their bowel movements were inconsistent unless we heavily watered the food. Some of our adults thrived, while others needed more structure or a simpler ingredient list. It was great food — just not the perfect universal fit for our wide variety of breeds.
Why It Works So Well for Our Puppies
Because Brothers is formulated for all life stages, our puppies have absolutely flourished on it:
Shiny, thick, healthy coats
Excellent digestion
Predictable potty habits — they digest Brothers quickly and comfortably, which means puppies go to the bathroom within a consistent window. This has been a huge help for setting reliable potty-training routines.
Enthusiastic eating — they demolish their meals
Consistency even as they transition through major growth phases
We also use the kibble as training treats. Even our pickiest doodles and plush-coat pups will work for it, and the formulas rotate seamlessly. We personally switch between the Turkey & Egg and the Venison & Egg with zero tummy drama — a huge win.
Discovering Brothers
When we found Brothers, the first thing we noticed was how easy it was to understand the ingredient panel. The formulas were clean, intentionally designed, and clearly suited for both growing puppies and adult dogs — including those with allergies.
One of our XL American Bullies is allergic to practically everything (we always joke she’s allergic to Florida itself). She’s extremely food-intolerant, and her skin and coat historically told the whole story.
With Brothers, she has finally turned a corner. Her coat is recovering beautifully, her skin is healthier than ever, and she’s comfortable again — something we’ve fought for over the past year, without trying to heavily chemical over load her.
A Partnership That Actually Supports Families
One of the reasons we said “yes” to partnering with Brothers is because they stand behind their product and behind their breeders.
Every Wonderland puppy goes home with a complimentary 5-lb bag of Brothers, plus an exclusive discount code for future orders.
That means families can transition easily without stress — no scrambling to figure out what food to buy, and no searching for a replacement formula.
The customer service has been outstanding, and honestly, it’s RARE to find a company that puts its money where its mouth is.
Final Thoughts
We’re incredibly proud to nourish our puppies and adults with a food that checks every box for health, convenience, digestibility, and ingredient integrity. Brothers has earned its place in our program, and we can confidently recommend it to every WBK family — because we’ve seen the results firsthand.
