Good to know

  • To compare protein with dry food, divide the protein figure by (100 minus moisture) and multiply by 100.
  • Lift any uneaten wet food after the meal rather than leaving it down, especially in warm weather.
  • Wash the bowl after every wet meal. Dried-on food quickly attracts bacteria and flies.

Common questions

Why does wet dog food have so little protein compared with dry?

Because most of a tin is water. The analysis on the label is given ‘as fed’, including the moisture. Convert both foods to dry matter to compare them properly, and wet food often comes out as high or higher in protein.

Is wet food bad for my dog’s teeth?

It is a common belief, but ordinary kibble does little to clean teeth either. Brushing your dog’s teeth daily with dog toothpaste is the most effective home care, and dental check-ups at the vet pick up problems early.
