I'm afraid of dried food. I considered giving my cats and dogs raw food. Marketing told us that this food could be for special issues for a dog, but it is only words. One of my dogs is nine years old. And it wasn't effortless to give him raw meat. He didn't understand why and what I gave him.
I recommend you read more when you change your pet diet or find a veterinary. You should use a unique scheme that helps them understand the natural food. My cats eat raw food right now. However, my dog is only a mix. I cook for him some food.
