How do I introduce wet food to my puppy?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

If you're thinking about switching to wet food, transition your dog's food gradually over several days, and slowly introduce him to wet food by feeding a little less of his dry food every day. If you immediately switch from dry food to wet food, your dog may have digestive problems.


When should I introduce wet food to my puppy?

At 8 weeks old you can start feeding your pup wet dog food. Your puppy still has soft teeth, which can make wet food a better choice. Pups at this stage are finally transitioning from their mothers milk to solid food and wet dog food is perfect for this, as dogs often find it more palatable and easier to eat.

How do I switch my puppy from dry to wet food?

Limit your dog's time with kibble to 20 minutes two or three times per day. Offer a small amount of wet food at the same time. After 20 minutes, take away the remaining kibble, but leave the wet food out. Gradually reduce the amount of dry being fed.
