Yes you can mix dog foods if you like. Just remember that any sudden switches can cause a stomach upset in pets so mixing the foods initially during the first week is recommended. However if you want to do the food mix long term that is perfectly fine. I don't typically recommend putting dog gravy on the food because it is quite fatty and can cause Gohan to become quite obese. Most pets do just fine with just their regular dog kibble and an occasional treat 2 times a week or less. I hope this helps!
