Thanks for the suggestions, unfortunately none of them are as low carb as Evo, tho’ a couple are close.

Evo 16% calorie rated carbs
Blue Buffalo Wilderness 33%
Earthborn Holistic Primitive Natural 22%
Canidae Pure 30%
Nature’s Variety Instinct 25%
Solid Gold Barking at the Moon 19%

The best of the bunch, Solid Gold, unfortunately uses pea protein for one of its major protein sources, a low bioavailable source, so that rules it out for me. And 30-35% carb is pretty much an average for the better quality foods, so nothing exceptional there.

Whereas the Wysong Epigen is 7% carb, even better than Evo if significantly more expensive.

I will certainly keep checking the Evo location finder. Doing so yesterday I found a store in a not-too-far away town that I wasn’t aware of carrying it, so I will certainly check with them. However, the same locator also lists a store that has discontinued carrying it because they have had supply issues. For the time being, Chewy is selling down their stock. When I called yesterday to find out what was going on, they had 300 bags & were only selling them to the current subscribers, of which I am one.

The reason for my persnickety-ness is that one of my dogs has a recurring sarcoma, & cancers LOVE carbs. So we’re trying to tilt several things in the dog’s favor.
