I think you're thinking of Nature's Variety. Although in 2014, they stopped sourcing their rabbit from China & sourcing them from France (last I've heard).

She had been on Blue grain free her whole life. Never dreamed a diet change would change everything.
We switched to Primal Lamb formula, and added total biotics and total enzymes to it... Long story short, 6 months later, her blood and urine results came bak PERFECT! tested again every couple months, and still perfect! She looks wonderful, and has not had a hepatic encephalopathy attack in 6 months or more! (She had gotton to the point of having them about once per week!) |
That's wonderful!

I have a 6 month old Yorkie that I want to give the best possible start I can. I have an older dog with medical issues, and its most likely too late to save him, at least his food will be healthier. At least thats my goal. I got samples today enough to give both of them dinner and breakfast tomorrow, and will go back to stock up, after some feedback. I did ask my vet is she though a raw food diet would be good for my sick Shih Tzu, and she said its an optimal diet for all dogs, and definitely do it if I can. |
Yes, I've heard of Vital Essentials, it's an excellent raw food company. I don't feed them the proteins they provide, wish they offered more novel proteins.
If your store carries Vital, I'm sure they can order other raw foods for you (if you wish). Nature's Variety is another excellent one & most Petco or Petsmart carries them.
Are you going to give them the raw food right away or mixing some of their old food, introduce slowly? That would be the best way, to avoid any tummy upsets.
