Just add the enzymes to the dry kibble and then add in just enough room temperature water to moisten the enzymes in the kibble and let it sit for 20 minutes. WHat you do not want to do is serve "dry" enzymes cause this can lead to mouth sores... but you do not have to make it so that the kibble is mushy either... just damp enough.

I found that for me when i did do just kibble, i needed approximately 1/4 cup of room temp water per 1 cup of kibble with 1 tsp of enzymes.... maybe try this and see if this is enough moisture for the kibble
Olesia, was owned by Izzy, a 35lb Spanish Water Dog (SWD), Diagnosed at 1.5 years old - TLI results 1.. Izzy passed away on February 13, 2020 at 15 years old. She lived with EPI for 13+1/2 years. It was because of Izzy that Epi4Dogs was started... she was the inspiration. May her legacy of helping others with EPI continue for as long as needed.........
