Your VET is NOT telling you the truth! Dry food gets crunched and sticks to their mouth creating tarter. WET gets swallowed.

Vets have a LOT to learn and a short time 4 or so years to learn it. They have SHORT courses on a lot of things like nutrition! MOST will sell you SD or Eukanuba as they get a profit from it.
