How often should I feed my senior dog wet food?
You should feed your senior dog wet food as often as your vet recommends. Experts often recommend feeding dogs twice a day on a regular schedule, but senior dogs facing health challenges may need to be fed smaller meals more often. Your vet can give you good guidance on what to feed your senior dog and how often.
Is wet food better for senior dogs?
Wet food is often better for senior dogs due to its high water content, high palatability and how easy it is to chew. Wet dog food is often easier to digest, and many formulas are made with higher levels of protein and fewer carbs, which can help your dog maintain a healthy musculature and weight. Talk to your vet about whether feeding your senior dog a wet food formula may be a good choice.
