Best Answer

Canned dog food is 70% moisture, which provides added moisture as well as a complete meal. A raw food is a complete diet and is very nutritional and if done properly is far far better than feeding commercial wet or dry as you can control exactly what goes into it.

As far as comparing wet food to dry food, it really does depend on the brand. Sadly, a great many dry foods are full of cereals which provide very little in the way of nutrition to a dog, and use poor quality meat sources. A dog gets most of its nutrients from meat, so it is best to look for a food that uses less cheap filler (grain, corn, wheat) and more meat sources. Wet food is easier to find with these specifications than dry.

Is canned dog food bad for dogs?

No, canned dog food is really good for dogs, but if your dog is reacting badly to the food you may want to note the ingredients to try and see what he is reacting to. You could also change dog food. Also, make sure your dog is eating the right foods, for example, a puppy needs special puppy food, which should be changed to adult dog food when he is old enough.
