Puppies often find it hard to chew dry food, making wet dog foods often easier for them to swallow and provide extra hydration which may help protect them against urinary tract infections.

Puppies’ small mouths and teeth make chewing dry kibble a daunting challenge for them, which makes digesting it even harder. Wet food may provide the solution needed for chewing and digesting dry kibble, making it an excellent solution for young pups or dogs with health conditions who have difficulty eating dry kibble.
When selecting wet puppy food, look for recipes with high protein levels to foster growth in your pup. These wet foods often contain more water than dry kibble and should be refrigerated once opened; you may soak dry kibble in warm water to soften it further if necessary; this may result in fermentation leading to intestinal issues and further complications.
This delicious wet puppy food is specially tailored for puppies, featuring DHA to aid brain development and an easy pate texture for new pups to chew. Additionally, this wet food provides essential proteins while being easily blended in with dry kibble for additional moisture.
Ingredients
Most puppy owners view the ingredient list on pet food labels as one of the most critical. Puppies require food with at least some minimum amounts of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals for healthy development.
However, not all ingredients are created equally. Many brands turn to cheap, low-grade meats containing animal fats in order to lower costs and these animal fats are often cooked at high temperatures which destroys valuable nutrients present in raw meat while rendering the fat less digestible.
Manufacturers sometimes resort to cheaper plant or nut oils instead of animal fats for meeting protein requirements in food products, as these contain fewer omega-3 fatty acids and have less nutritional value.
Nutrition
Puppies require a diet rich in proteins and low in fats for proper growth and development. Wet puppy food helps preserve these vital nutrients for maximum benefit to their wellbeing.

Safety
Dog foods, both wet and dry, contain various chemicals. If you add too much water to their food, it could ruin it and cause health issues like diarrhea. Furthermore, too much moisture can make moist food too runny; too much excess moisture could potentially lead to kidney issues in later years as its body cannot pass it via urine.
Puppies should transition into eating dry kibble after 8 weeks, but this only happens once their transition from wet puppy food has been complete and their adult teeth have developed strong enough to handle its crunchiness. Soaking dry kibble in water may soften it, making it easier for puppies with small mouths or dental issues to chew.
Large-breed puppies may benefit from food that’s designed specifically to ensure controlled growth, in order to decrease their risk of skeletal issues and joint issues. Such food will typically contain lower amounts of calcium and phosphorus to avoid overfeeding.
