Feeding your dog only dry kibble has its perks – it’s easy to store, convenient, and complete. But why stop there when you can seriously level-up your dog’s bowl by mixing in wet food? Adding moisture-rich wet food doesn’t just enhance mealtime – it transforms it.
So, what’s the magic of mixed feeding?
Dry food like Wellness CORE packs in all the essential nutrients your dog needs. But adding wet food? That’s where the fun (and flavour!) begins. Wet recipes don’t just add variety – they boost taste, amp up aroma, and make the texture way more exciting. Perfect for picky eaters or dogs who just deserve a little extra joy at mealtime. Mixed feeding also brings a little surprise to your dog’s daily routine. The extra sensory appeal of wet food—its savoury scent and tender texture—keeps your dog interested in every bite. Dogs thrive on variety, and rotating or combining recipes can prevent mealtime boredom.
Hydration is the hidden hero
Here’s the juicy bit: wet food is loaded with moisture. That extra hydration helps keep your dog happy, healthy, and better hydrated—especially during warm weather or for pups who forget to drink enough. Think of it as a delicious way to help your dog stay refreshed from the inside out. Proper hydration supports kidney health, aids digestion, and can even improve energy levels. Hydration from wet food is especially helpful for dogs who are older, more active, or simply not great at drinking water on their own. It’s an easy upgrade that delivers real health benefits with every bowl.



More nutrients, less fuss
Toppers and mixers often pack in extra goodies like protein, vitamins, and minerals. So not only does your dog’s bowl get tastier, it gets a nutritious upgrade too. Wet food can help deliver certain nutrients more effectively thanks to its form and digestibility. Just be sure to adjust portions to avoid overfeeding—wet food has fewer calories per gram than dry.
Keep it high-quality
Always go for trusted, premium recipes. Wellness CORE delivers top-notch nutrition across dry, wet, and treats—with no artificial nasties, by-products, or mystery meats. Plus, there are recipes for every size, age, and lifestyle, so your dog gets precisely what they need.
Mixing made simple
Whether you go 90:10 or 50:50, there’s no strict rule—just follow the feeding guidelines on the pack. Transition gradually over a week and consult your vet for tailored advice. Every dog is unique, and your mix should fit their individual needs, taste preferences, and health goals.
A few pro tips:
– Don’t leave wet food sitting out—it spoils fast.
– Fresh water? Always available.
– Introduce new foods gradually to support smooth digestion.
– Monitor your dog’s weight and energy to tweak the balance as needed.
