Canidae is an OK brand, but seems to be more about marketing unnecessary ingredients rather than tailoring food to the dogs specific life stage. It is nutritionally adequate though, which is the most important thing. I would have to evaluate the specific product in question to have more of an opinion about it. The truth about most of these foods is that their claims usually amount to nothing more than that of a fad diet (i.e. paleo or atkins) and are not supported by sufficient evidence (even though they will make it sound like it is). As scientifically trained practitioners, us vets prefer to offer evidenced based treatment and the same goes for feeding suggestions. The most important thing on that bag is a tiny bit of writing under the guaranteed analysis called the AAFCO statement. This statement tells you what actual research went into making the product. Below is a link to an article that will help explain this more and give some other info about feeding your dog: https://

Hi there! For senior dogs, I really like Purina Pro Plan's Bright Minds senior diets - these come in both canned and dry versions, so you could feed the wet formula only if that's what you prefer. :) Here is a link with more information about this diet: https://www.purina.com/pro-plan/dogs/wet-dog-food/bright-mind-senior-turkey-brown-rice#overview

Brands of food I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I recommend these brands because they have veterinary nutritionists on staff to make sure the food is balanced correctly, they meet AAFCO standards, and they run feeding trials. It's fine to mix wet and dry food together, but I would keep them the same brand to avoid GI upset in Chewy. I hope this helps!

Cesars and Beneful are more medium grade diets. Dogs love the taste but it's not necessarily the highest quality proteins and there's lot of fillers. The Royal Canin is a very high quality and the food I recommend to mainly feed Azumi. I recommend to feed mainly dry food but you can add in some canned food for a treat or even in every meal if you like. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Some quality food brands that would be good options for Daisy include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, and Purina One. All of these brands have good quality canned and dry options. Thanks for using Boop by Petco!
