Not all dried foods bulk out when left in water. The quality ones don't. I feed my dogs arden grange and even after soaking it barely bulks out. A friend feeds Orijen and that doesn't expand all, because the ingredients are so good. Only the foods like bakers, pedigree etc, which are 95% fillers will expand when left in water.
