I am anti wet food... I watched my girlfriends 3 year old have 80% of her teeth removed as a result of a wet diet! Well, the fact that she did not brush her dogs teeth was not helpfull either. If they have the choice between wet and dry, the wet almost always wins and they need the chewing action of the kibble. It helps their teeth, is less dense in calories, promotes firmer stools... the list goes on...
The closest I am comming to wet is the Natural Ballance rolls. They are not wet, but softer than the Kibble.... and its only as a training treat. They are kinda like a Hickory Farms Summer Sasuage.. same feel to them. I can dice them up and it holds its shape. I chop up a half a roll and store it in the fridge in a ziplock.
Anyway... unless I have a sick animal that is too weak to eat dry, or has a major loss of appitite.. I don't use wet. But I do keep a can in the pantry, cause you never know when you'll need it!
