What are some good commercial foods? (raw in particular)

 

I figure this list would come in handy for everyone especially those with picky animals that won't touch kibble after going raw.  Keep in mind, a lot of places don't have freezers (vets have vaccine only freezers.)  

 

So far, I have 

Primal (freeze dried)

Stella  & Chewy's (freeze dried)

 

Someone told me about Smack Dog Food (dehydrated) but I haven't actually seen it anywhere.

Ziwi Peak has their air dried lamb (and i believe) venison

I use Stella and Chewy's but another for the list is Wysong, they make a freeze-dried food now. I got a sample and Sophie's sensitive stomach was able to handle it!

 

Nature's Variety makes a freeze-dried food but it seems to be very, very bone heavy and with ingredients sourced from China (rabbit, for example). So I wouldn't recommend it.

I personally would call around and see who can accommodate a raw fed dog. Then send only chicken to make it simple on the staff.

We have four fridge/freezers with plenty of room and have had raw fed dogs stay with us regularly

Or never go where you can't take the kids with you. lol

I, thankfully, found someone to feed the dogs when it comes time to deliver the baby. Won't have time to take the boys to mom and dad's & the boys love our friend who will feed them. He is looking forward to feeding them. lol
