Also, I just noticed that the Guaranteed Analysis between dry and canned food is quite different. For example, the Newman's Own dry food is:

GUARANTEED ANALYSIS:

Crude Protein................30.0% (min)
Crude Fat......................11.0% (min)
Crude Fiber.....................4.5% (max)
Moisture........................10.0% (max)
Ash................................6.5% (max)
Taurine..........................0.20% (min)


I checked the Wellness web site and it was about the same difference. Is this just because of the higher water content of canned food or do they get more protein eating dry food? I was also reading that canned food is best for neutered males because of the high water content, is this the same for spayed females?
