This is from a small animal vet.
Cat food is not good for dogs. Cat's need higher protein levels which is
too hard on dog's kidneys.

I don't know that anything in cat food would be harmful to dogs. Cat food
contains taurine, an amino acid essential for cats, but one that dogs
synthesize on their own. For this reason cats won't do well on dog food.
Otherwise, may not be much difference at all.
