Hi Karen… That’s because we mathematically remove 100% of the water from every product reviewed on this website. Please be sure to click on the link in each article that describes dry matter basis.

Hope this helps.

Blue Buffalo Chicken Dinner has 8.5 protein and 1.3 fiber – above it states it is much higher in these canned food dinners for dogs. Why the difference? Why is it so low usually in canned for fiber and protein? I am confused and concerned.

Erin , I use 1/3 can as a topper with 2 1/2 cups kibble for my dogs dinner . I split the other 2 /3 rds in seperate small containers for her next 2 dinners . I use what ever cans of 4 or 5 star wet that I get coupons from the company . I have over 30 cans of food , all from coupons . I’ve spent about 20 bucks to get the 30 cans . She loves the variety of the diff toppers .

see previous entry about can dog food & containers

I pay $1.99 right now for the BB pate. I don’t feel it is cheap. I’m sure it will go up soon. I try to buy stews when there is a sale.

I did see something somewhere about how long pet food should be stored in the frig. They recommended taking the food out of the can before storing it.

I don’t think 4 days is too long to store the can dog food, but take it out of the can to store.

I have read that you should NOT leave the dog food in the can. I transfer can dog food and can cat food into Ziploc very small round plastic see-thru containers with lids.

I feed the dog food over 3 days. I divide it between the first serving on a plate and the subsequent 2 more servings in 2 separate containers. That way I just pull one out, invert into a bowl, micro for about 16 seconds–just to take the chill off, stir and scoop onto a plate.

I mark each container with a 1×2″ sticky. It works very well because I serve it first thing in the morning and don’t have to be totally awake to get it done.
