Dog Wet and Dry Food Mixer – How to Mix Wet and Dry Dog Food

This free dog wet and dry food mixer tells you exact grams of wet and dry food for one day, from a calorie target and the energy of each food, so mixed feeding stays on target. It runs fully in your browser, so nothing you type is sent to a server, and you need no account and no sign-up to use it.

Many dog owners guess the daily amount, and guessing is where most feeding problems start. Too much food over months quietly adds fat, while too little food leaves a dog thin, tired, and hungry. A simple calculation based on weight and energy gives you a fair starting point instead of a guess.

To use the tool, type in Daily calorie target (kcal), Wet food energy (kcal per 100 g), Dry food energy (kcal per 100 g), Wet food share (%). Press the calculate button and the tool shows the result at once. If you change any number, press calculate again to see the new result right away.

The result is a guide for a healthy dog, not a medical order. Dogs differ in breed, age, health, and daily life, so use the number as a starting point, then watch weight and body shape over the next few weeks and adjust in small steps.

Example: for a 600 kcal day split half and half, with wet food at 80 kcal per 100 grams and dry food at 350 kcal per 100 grams, the mix is 375 grams of wet food and about 86 grams of dry food.

Read both labels in the same unit. Wet food is often listed per 100 grams and dry food per kilo, so convert both to kcal per 100 grams before you type them in.

Store opened wet food in the fridge and use it quickly. Most opened tins and pouches last only two to three days chilled, so do not stretch one tin across a week.

Keep the total, not each part, fixed. If you raise the wet share, the dry grams must fall, or the day will quietly gain calories.

Common question: Why mix wet and dry food at all? Wet food adds water and smell, which helps picky dogs and dogs that drink little, while dry food is easy to store, measure and use for training.

Common question: Can I change the share each day? Yes, as long as the daily calorie total stays the same. The tool lets you test any share, from all dry to all wet, in seconds.

Common question: Does wet food clean teeth? No. Wet food does not clean teeth, and dry kibble cleans them only a little. Brushing and vet dental checks still matter for both diets.

Keep a simple notebook for a month. Write the daily grams, the weight each week, and any notes about energy, coat, and stools. That short record turns a vague feeling that something changed into clear evidence you can show your vet, and it makes the next adjustment much easier to judge.

A steady routine helps more than a perfect bowl. Feed at the same times, measure with scales, keep fresh water out, and give walks and play at regular hours. Dogs settle well into routines, and a settled dog is easier to weigh, easier to watch, and easier to feed well.

Finally, check the food bag for feeding guidance and compare it with this result. If the bag guide and this tool differ a lot, start between the two numbers and let the weight of your dog over two weeks decide the final amount. Write both numbers down so you can compare them again after the first weighing.

This tool is free to use as often as you like. Bookmark it, recheck the numbers when your dog grows, changes food, or changes activity, and keep the daily routine steady. Small, steady habits matter far more for a dog than any single perfect number.
