Wet dog food can be better than dry dog food, but it will depend largely on what kind of food you choose and your dog's specific needs. Generally speaking, wet dog foods can be better for dogs because they have a higher moisture content. They often contain more protein and fewer carbs, and they may have fewer preservatives than dry dog kibble. Wet dog food is also more palatable and easier to chew than dry dog food, so it is often the best choice for senior dogs, picky eaters and dogs with dental issues. Of course, dog food ingredients and processing routines vary, so a high-quality dry kibble may wind up being better for your dog than a lower quality wet one. Talk to your vet about whether feeding wet dog food, dry dog food or a mix of both might be best for your pup.
Wet dog food usually lasts for 2 to 5 years unopened, but check the expiration date to be sure. Fresh and frozen wet dog foods last for less time, so check package directions for guidance on proper storage and use. Once opened, wet dog food will last in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
The best way to store shelf-stable wet dog food before it is opened is in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Frozen or fresh wet dog food needs to be stored in the freezer or refrigerator. Once open, store wet dog food tightly sealed in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
