And although I would like to home cook I want to ask my vet before I make such a change in her diet. I was also debating on feeding wet food only because she will eat that on her own but dry food she won't even come near it. I tried regular blue buffalo, merrick and wellness. All the same problem, she just doesn't want it. Is wet food by itself sufficient enough for all her vitamins? The main thing I also like about wet food is that there is no meal in it. I just want her to eat her food. |
Some are and some are meant only as toppers. Look at the can labeling and it will indicate if it is a complete and balanced diet.
Protein is a subject of great debate. Some people believe 22% is too low, others believe 40% is too high. Depends on the individual dog. My boys fare better on a moderate protein percentage. Generally speaking, higher protein foods are not a problem except in a liver compromised dog.
Grains -- also comes down to the individual dog. Some do better on grain free and others do better with the grains in the kibble.
