the cans of dog meat i buy are relevantly cheap in the uk Chunky with beef and gravy 1200g this does her around 3 feeds and was feeding with Bakers Complete Dog Food Rabbit & Duck 1.5kg but only recently started mixing her dry with canned meat when she was only eating dry dog food she got 4 meals from the dry mix but will be changing her dry dog food as there is a slight chance she has an allergy to this

so should i cut down on what im feeding her should i feed her more also i have been told that canned dog meat is bad for there teeth is this true or has someone just miss informed me

thanks

Throwing a period in once and awhile would make your post a LOT easier to read. Adjusting the dog's weight is very simple. Just start off with having her "move a little more, and eat a little less". Try and feed a good food. A little more exercise, and a little less food...that's the key.
