Canned or Dry? WDJ explains the differences between the two types of commercial food. Caring guardians of companion canines often wonder whether one form of commercially prepared food kibble or canned is better than the other. The truth is, both types of food have relative advantages and disadvantages in terms of palatability, digestibility, and necessity for preservatives or other chemical additives. While they generally meet the same chemical composition standards in terms of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, these types of food provide very different nutritional value. Canned foods contain more protein and fat than dry foods, and they typically contain a greater percentage of animal-based ingredients than dry foods (see sidebar: Comparing Apples to Apples: The Dry Matter Comparison, next page).
