Does anyone feed their dog(s) wet foods only?

Just curious...does anyone feed their dogs wet foods or "fresh" foods only - no dry? We give our dogs two or three wet-only dinners every week; same brand (Purina One) as their dry food. Or we mix a small amount of wet food into dry. It seems to be their favorite now.

We used to give my dog home made wet food when she was diagnosed with cushings. It helped tremendously with that and helped her lose weight. It also did wonders for her teeth. She loved it as well.

If I could afford to, I would. But at 75 lbs my dog would cost too much to feed canned or fresh!

It heavily depends on what wet food you're using, as some wet foods are just fillers and mush. However on terms of the actual softness of the food, it should be fine. I soak my dogs kibble in warm water so he can digest. Just make sure to brush their teeth, as roughage can sometimes help with plaque :)
