About Fromm

The biggest nutritional difference between dry (kibble) and wet (canned) pet food is in the moisture or water content. For Fromm Family Foods recipes, wet food contains an average of 82% water, while dry food only averages 6-7%.

Generally, wet pet food also contains less carbohydrates than dry does. Wet food may also contain a higher percentage of protein and fat—although this varies depending on the formulation.

Wet food can help with increasing water consumption. Most pets drink plenty of water on their own so long as fresh water is available to them—but pets with certain health conditions may benefit from additional hydration. Also, wet food may be more palatable to picky eaters.

Since dry food contains less moisture, it has a higher concentration of nutrients per volume. Therefore, it may require less food volume (and therefore cost less) to feed your pet with dry (kibble).

Both dry and wet pet foods from Fromm Family Foods are nutritionally complete and balanced—so you can choose to feed dry (kibble), wet (cans), or a combination of both based on your pet’s preference.
