Using wet dog food to supplement or 'top dress' dry kibble is popular practice. In fact, research shows that many dogs that eat a therapeutic dry dog food are also eating a wet dog food from a supermarket. It is very important that the therapeutic dog food is fed exclusively in order to work effectively. It is therefore recommended NOT to mix Hill's with other food.
