How much wet 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.


Is it OK to feed your dog just wet food?

Wet foods won't clean your dog's teeth or massage their gums as they eat, which may lead to more plaque build-up and potentially to tooth decay. Owners who feed their dogs exclusively wet food may need to be more vigilant with brushing and tooth maintenance.

How much wet food equals dry dog food?

You can choose your own ratio of dry to wet food, but we generally recommend two thirds dry kibble to one third wet food.

How much water does a dog need if they eat wet food?

Many dog owners are not aware of how much water their pets need to drink. Most veterinarians advise that dogs should be consuming about 0.75 ounces of water for every pound that they weigh. Keep in mind that wet dog food contains moisture.
