Have you been thinking about switching your dog to wet food?
Maybe their kibble just isn't cutting it anymore or you want to mix up their diet with some variety. Choosing a high-quality wet dog food is one of the best things you can do for your furry friend. Not only does wet food add moisture to their diet, but it also often has more natural, whole ingredients.
Not sure which option is best?
Follow these tips to find the right wet dog food for your pup:
· Look for ingredients you recognize, such as beef, chicken or fish (meat-based protein should make up at least 50% of the food) and healthy grains (oats, barley) or veggies (sweet potatoes, green beans). Whole grains and vegetables provide fibre, vitamins and minerals.
· Check for by-products or fillers. Avoid corn, wheat, soy and unnamed meat and bone meals.
· Make sure it offers a balanced diet for your dog's size and activity level. The best canned dog food includes a mix of protein, fat, grains/veggies, vitamins and minerals.
· Consider your dog's age. Puppy food has more calories and nutrients for growth, while seniors may need a joint health formula.
· Watch out for additives. Artificial additives like colours or preservatives are not necessary and can be harmful. Choose a food with natural preservatives like vitamin E or C.
· Compare brands. Look at reviews and ratings to find trusted wet dog food brands that use premium, natural ingredients. Many leading brands offer high-quality, natural wet dog food options. Ask your vet for recommendations too.
· Once you've found some canned dog food options, do a taste test. Offer your pup a few samples and see which they prefer. Every dog has their own tastes, and finding something they love will make mealtimes better.
