Frequently Asked Questions about Wet Puppy Foods

Can puppies have the entire can of wet food?

Puppies may be able to have the entire can of wet food, but proper feeding amounts will depend on your puppy's age, his weight and the size of the can, so consult the product packaging for feeding guidelines. Feeding puppies too much may result in stomach upsets or unhealthy weight gain, so be sure to follow feeding instructions closely. Talk to your vet for the best guidance on how much and what kind of food to feed your growing puppy.

What are some of the best ingredients to look for in a puppy food formula?

Some of the best ingredients to look for in a puppy food formula include healthy real meat, whole fruits and vegetables, and hearty grains if you are feeding a grain-inclusive formula. Puppies also need to omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA to thrive, so look for a puppy food formula that includes them. Be sure to choose a food specifically formulated for puppies to ensure your young pup is getting the right nutrition at this important life stage.

Is wet food better for puppies?

Wet food is often better for puppies, especially in the first several weeks of life. Young puppies may have difficulty chewing dry kibble at first, so wet food is usually the best choice for puppies who are still teething. Wet food also has a higher water content, so it can be easier for their developing digestive systems to process. If you do want to feed your puppy dry food or start to transition him to it, you may need to soak it to make it easier to chew and digest. Whether you feed your puppy dry food or wet food, be sure to choose a formula made specifically for puppies. Your vet is the best person to ask about what to feed your puppy at every stage of development.
