Depends on the age of the puppy. If the puppy is under 6 weeks of age then wetting the food may be necessary.

If the puppy is over 8 weeks of age then wetting the food shouldn't be necessary but may be needed during the puppy's teething stage depending on the number of teeth lost.

If the puppy looses quite a few baby teeth near the same period of time. Then wetting the puppy's food to soften it will help ensure that the puppy is able to eat their food properly until the new teeth have come in.

Can i change your 8 week old puppys food to dry?

It is unclear from this question what the puppy is currently eating. A eight week old puppy should be able to eat dry food. Any change in the diet should be made gradually. If you are changing from a wet food to dry you should mix them or have both available and gradually remove the wet food. If you are weening the puppy from milk you should start with dry food soaked in water or milk and gradually reduce the liquid.
