    My two love Stella & Chewy’s freeze-dried… any flavor. But not Honest Kitchen. I tried three options of that and they are not liking it. And Tucker will eat anything. A snood covers long ears to keep the food out of them.

    Thanks for that clarification. I may now just use the Stella & Chewy’s Freeze Dried for travel as I am now seeing concerns about the Honest Kitchen meeting AAFCO standards. I hope they will address those as I think they have good thing in many respects. I have had some issues with Stella & Chewy’s distributor in our area getting old batches into stores that have caused us undue problems. And calls to Stelly & Chewy’s were answered by a very rude woman who did not give a flip. And she seems to be the only person you get.

    Thanks Dori. I am looking at the Honest Kitchen website and it looks like the changes have already been made except for the Keen Turkey. You can get several proteins without any grains and the others with grain seem to have oats, but not alfalfa. I am impressed with their sourcing of ingredients though and they were one of the few who answered tons of questions several of us had. I am glad that Nature’s Variety has found a different source of rabbit besides China. Hope they keep that up. We are currently feeding Stella & Chewy’s raw, but looking to just add some Honest Kitchen now and then and use that for travel.

    If you really want top notch, Darwin’s raw food has some specialty diets now and has one for kidney issues. I do know this is a very serious condition. I too have Cavaliers and know of three Cavaliers who got protein losing enteropathy after eating tainted kibble. One was getting the Iams recalled and two others got it after being put on Science Diet ID.

    New here and very interesting reading all over the place. Looking at several posts. What about Honest Kitchen? I just ordered some because of their transparency and pledge to quality. They have had one voluntary recall though. But looking at various websites, they seem to be first class.

    Second, has Nature’s Variety changed again about where it gets it rabbit? We stopped feeding that 3 years ago when we learned the rabbit was sourced from China. I see that your 2014 list says it comes from France.
