Is it healthy to feed my dog 1/2 cup of canned dog food plus crunchy food?
I’m a new dog owner and want to provide the best healthy life she can have. She is 11 lbs. and is 2 yrs. old. I need some suggestions from experienced dog owners. She really would like to have some canned food – she follows me when I feed the cat even though she has crunchy food in her bowl. She doesn’t overeat and we get plenty of exercise. I brush her teeth weekly. Thanks!
1/2 cup of canned is way too much. Depending on the food you feed at her age/size she should only be getting 1/2 cup (overall food) or so a day! At most, 3/4 of a cup. My dog at 18 pounds only gets one full cup…..
She needs the required amount of KIBBLE for nutritional purposes (as wet food contains very little nutrition and is mostly water.) If she’s being properly exercised, teeth brushed, and isn’t picking wet food from dry you can add a tablespoon of wet food one meal a day.
She does not need it, though.
