I would not suggest that for two big reasons- one is that even canned cat food is higher in protein than dog food is, and too much is too much.. Secondly- cat food ( or at least good ones do) are high in taurine, which a cat needs for eye site, but a dog doesnt.
I am sure the dog would love the taste= they cant fool a cat with bad food source ingredients or poor quality ingredients, = however- I wouldnt do it..
