Dry dog foods vary in quality and adequacy. There are many factors to consider while choosing a pack of dry food for dogs. This is particularly important when dog food is to be fed as a major part of your pet's diet. Some of the considerations that you must think about include:
- Is the food complete and balanced?
- How palatable/digestible is the food?
- How much does the dry food cost?
- What is the reputation/credibility of the manufacturer?
- Do they have qualified and experienced experts and veterinary nutritionists?
- Do they have facilities to meet pet food standards?
- Can you easily approach the brand to get further information on pet food?
- Finally, the most important consideration in selecting dry food for your dog is its nutrient content. It is essential to ensure that the nutrients available in the food are digestible. Labels provide some useful information about the merits of the food. These details include the list of ingredients, analysis, nutritional adequacy statement, energy density, and suggested feeding regimes. Currently, regulations state that all pet food labels must contain the product name, net weight, name and address of the manufacturer, guaranteed analysis for crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, and moisture, list of ingredients in descending order by weight (from maximum to minimum), statement of nutritional adequacy, purpose of the product, and method that was used to substantiate the nutritional adequacy claim.
As wet and dry dog foods have different benefits, we recommend that you provide your dog with both these types of food every day. Since wet food is high in moisture content, it is a great way to ensure that your dog stays hydrated. Moreover, it helps you keep your furry friend’s urinary tract healthy. On the other hand, dry food is excellent in providing good oral care; chewing dry kibbles can also help your dog relieve stress.
Yes, you can mix wet and dry dog food in the same bowl to enhance the overall meal’s taste. Dogs generally enjoy two different textures — the meaty texture from wet food and the crunchiness from dry dog food. However, it best to provide dry food in the morning and wet food for dinner as always mixing the two will defeat the main purpose of feeding dry food i.e., cleaning your dog’s teeth.
