Is wet food for dogs preferable than dry food?

For dogs who need more hydration, wet food is preferable to dry food. The additional water in canned food may benefit dogs with urinary problems, other medical disorders, or who live in hot regions. Some canned foods could have more actual meat and the delicious meat flavor that dogs adore. However, a nutritionally complete dry dog food will give your dog the full, well-balanced diet they require to flourish and maybe a more practical option for bigger dogs or households with less storage space.

Do you have to keep wet dog food in the fridge?

Prior to opening a can of wet dog food, it is not necessary to refrigerate it. Any leftovers should be stored in the refrigerator in a sealed container. Some 'fresh' or raw wet dog food formulae are shipped chilled or frozen; they should always be kept chilled or frozen in a tight container until needed. Discard any uneaten, unrefrigerated food after 4 hours to prevent food-borne disease in your pet.

Are pups able to eat wet dog food?

Wet dog food is appropriate for pups but must be made according to a recipe designed specifically for them. Whether you choose wet or dry food, always feed your growing puppy a portion of complete and balanced dog food created specifically for puppies. Talk to your veterinarian if you are unclear about the right food to feed a puppy or how much to provide.
