Canned food is not good for dogs if taken plainly without dry dogfood. Firstly, canned food has little protein and nutritional value. Your dog would need to eat alot in order to be full. It's more like a side dish.... like some flavourings or different texture to normal dry food to make the usual food tempting and appetizing.... but then it causes tooth decay. Real bad too in the long run. Teeth will rot and breath would stink IF the dog doesn't get to chew and crunch on normal biscuits and chewing bones.

Canola oil is a good thing.

California Natural is good.... I think you can try to buy it online, they do deliveries. Just Google Buddy Pet Wagon Malaysia. We cannot provide sales links here so you Google and find the site. Easy.

Anyway, switching canned food to dry food. You have to do it slowly. But if you feed Pedigree and Alpo, since these dog food do not taste good, hard for you to change fast too since not so tasty. The right way is to lessen the amount of canned food each feeding. From say half a can, go to 1/3 can.... then a tablespoon, then a teaspoon, then a pinch..... of course you have to rub all over the dry food.... later on as you move to a pinch, the dry food would overcome the smell of the canned food.... then the dog would have an easier time in switching foods than to starve completely and cause stomach upset. Dogs can go on for 2 days without food but they will vomit out bile coz of the emptiness and gastric juices.... so that is not really good. Normally when my dogs do not eat their food, I let them go hungry for 24 hours, then they will start to eat.

Shih tzus are picky eaters, it may take longer to train.

Also, this is from experience lah.... shih tzus that do not get their teeth cleaned yearly and do not get their teeth brushed by their owners after a meal, would have teeth decay when they reach senior age. This is when a shih tzu eats canned food and rice.
