    Hello,
    I am looking for a commercial raw dog food. Something thats convenient yet decently priced and available in bags big enough to last me a month. I have 2 dogs one 20 pounds and one 40 pounds.
    My oldest one ( even though she is ageless, 9 but acts like she is 2) has trouble on even the best kibble ( yeasty ears and itchy paws) and she used to eat Ziwipeak but they discontinued the big bags. My younger does well on anything, but I wont feed just ONE of them raw.

    I used to feed her the honest kitchen but she dislikes it and won’t eat it unless I top it off with an egg or something. Plus I am looking for kibble like convenience.
    I tried REAL MEAT – Dog food, but their poop was horrible on it. ( Any information regarding this?)
    I also briefly tried raw feeding them the regular way, buying meat and organs in bulk but I couldn’t manage to do it in the long term, time commitment etc.

    Any recommendations are welcome !

    Hi Vishakha-

    I have yet to find a brand of raw that makes bags large enough to last a month for larger sized dogs. I guess they feel it would be so expensive that it would discourage people from buying it. Not really sure.

    There are services out there like https://www.wefeedraw.com/ where they ship you pre-packaged raw food enough for either 2 weeks or 4 weeks. This is a prey model raw diet however.

    Hi Pitlove-
    Thank you for your input, I have been looking for decent sized bags and have been unsuccessful, glad to know it just does not exist, so I can stop looking.

    Is wefeedraw.com the most cost-effective of its kind?

    I’m not sure. I haven’t looked that hard, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about that company. It used to be called ReelRaw.

    Anyone found any larger sized commercial dog food yet? I have three to feed, 40 lbs, 70 lbs and 100lbs. A 24 oz bag wouldn’t work but I’m loving the formulas most of the freeze dried companies are putting together. We currently go through over 40#+ of kibbles per month. I really want to get them all off the food they are on but can’t commit time wise to cooking and I’m not uber rich.

    I buy my dogs raw from Hare Today; I believe their largest bag is 5lbs.

    Reel Raw has 10 pounders

    Where are you located? Texas, for example, has Texas Tripe, and they’re wonderful! Other states may have something similar where they deliver to an area twice a month.
