Prey-model raw. I get 90% of my stuff from a great butcher shop just down the street from where I am. Another raw-feeder I know tipped me off about it, and I know many others must use it in my area as well because one of the great things about this butchers shop is they let nothing go to waste, as in anything they don't use for their regular meat they grind up and sell as 'dog meat' for 85 cents a pound. But it is good meat, just varies as in the animal/s it came from and the amount of fat and organ mixed up with it. Otherwise, I buy lot's of different meat there, including chicken, turkey, lamb, pork, beef and fish. I say only 90% of my meat comes from there because sometimes I like to bring home raw meat from different ethnic stores I find that sell stuff like rabbit and elk. Basically, my dog is 48 lbs so he could survive on less than $30 worth of raw meat per month. Because he's so spoiled though and I buy all these different specialty meats when I can, it usually ends up to being more like $45 a month. Keeping in mind though that I only have the one dog. If I owned any more, I'd be much more frugal. I also add to his diet the same free-range eggs from the fridge that I eat, as well as sometimes pumpkin if he's getting a lot of bone one day. I love feeding raw because I have a lot of confidence in that my dog is getting the best diet I can provide for him, as I have seen first-hand the difference that feeding raw can make in a dog. :)

After reading this thread I feel the need to step my game up when it comes to the kind of nutrition I provide my dog, you all have put me to shame...I'm almost embarrassed :oops:

Kitty, Marsha, Umah and Mexi get TOTW Pacific Stream. Conway I'm having issues with. He has a very sensitive tummy, and I can't seem to find anything that works. I'm trying one more kibble (we've tried the TOTW Pacific Stream, Science Diet Healthy Advantage puppy ((which he actually did the best on.)) Wellness CORE superfive mix, Blue Buffalo fish and sweet potato) and now I'm trying TOTW...can't remember the formula name but it has lamb in it.

If this last bag doesn't work, he is going raw. I refuse to feed him a SD prescription diet unless absolutely necessary.

I feed Nature's Domain from Costco Salmon & Sweet Potato and the Turkey & Sweet Potato. I've tried raw in the past and my dog Seth gets diarrhea really bad, it doesn't matter if we switch slowly or go cold turkey, he always gets sick. As it is with the area I live in and now having three large dogs I can't say that raw would be super cost effective at this point either.

Two dogs on Diamond Naturals, one on raw. Eventually hoping to have them all on raw when finances are better. Pretty limited in food choices around here, the only grain free is TOTW which we fed for quite awhile, Nero seems to do better on the Diamond though.

My poor dogs don't eat designer food or raw meat, they eat Purina products. I don't eat designer food either, sometimes I eat at Burger King. :D
