Have you tried
Life's Abundance? You will not find a fresher or healthier food on the market. You can ask Dr Jane Bicks, the food formulator, on our Thursday night Conference Calls. No other company offers you the opportunity to speak directly with the food formulator.
Commercial pet foods are cooked in huge batches to fill warehouses & stores all over the country. Subsequently, the industry average from the date of manufacturer until you purchase a bag off the shelf is 18 months. I used to drive a truck over the road and one of the contract my company had was with a pet food distribution company. The warehouse was open to the elements, no air conditioning or heating and there were trailers full of food that would sit for months (because the manufacturing facility would keep sending in food and they didn't have enough room in the warehouse to store it all).
Life's Abundance is cooked frequently in small batches and shipped direct to you. It is never more than 6 weeks old when you receive it, not several months old.
I found out about Life's Abundance when my Yorkie's health declined and after spending hundreds of dollars on tests only to have my vet say he couldn't find anything to make him act the way he was and suggest I change his food. I thought I was buying a good food. The short story is he has been eating Life's Abundance for almost a year and a half and has gone from barely moving around - very lethargic as if he had no energy to jumping up, spinning in circles, running out the door, playing with my lab mix and just being a normal active dog. I got my buddy back and I am sold on this food.
