How much wet and dry dog food should I feed my dog?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Give your dog one 3 oz can per 3 - 3½ pounds of body weight daily, divided into two or more meals. Adjust this amount as needed to help maintain your dog's ideal body condition. If mixing with dry food, remember that one 3 oz can replaces about ¼ cup of dry dog food.


Should I feed my dog wet and dry food together?

Due to the range of benefits that wet and dry diets boast, a mixed feeding approach can help your dog get the most out of mealtime. Combining both wet and dry to their diet can give them some variety, where they are exposed to different textures that they will generally be more tempted to try.

How do I combine wet and dry dog food?

A good rule of thumb to follow is to mix in a very small amount of the new food on day one and gradually alter the balance of new to old over seven days until you're serving the final balance of mixed food on day seven. There is no need to mix the dry food and the wet food in the one bowl when you feed your dog.

How much should I feed my dog chart?

It's easy to look past this. For example, if a chart says a 15-pound dog should have 1.5 cups of food, 1.5 needs to be divided by the number of meals you feed your dog. It's typically recommended that dogs be fed twice per day — so the ideal serving size, in this case, is ¾ cup of food per meal.
