    Orijen has 40% protein. But still, it's super expensive. Lol Usually it's higher protein is too much for smaller dogs.

    I agree, I would look into BG or Core. They are both good brands and I don't think they are TOO much more than TOTW, probably around the Blue Buffalo price range.

    What kind of allergies does your girl have? It's been known, that allergies dogs have to processed kibble isn't always the same as raw. Like... dogs that are allergic to chicken aren't always allergic to raw chicken. Who knows. I understand the freezer thing. I was lucky enough to get a free one! I was so excited. Lol But now I'm going to pick up 75 lbs of vension tomorrow and 50 more pounds of meat on Saturday. I really don't think it's going to fit in my tiny freezer. I don't think my husband would let me buy another one. hahaha

    What about doing half kibble half raw? That might cut down on costs if you can get cheap meat. Feed kibble in the am, wait 12 hours, then feed raw for dinner? As long as you feed the two a good time apart, there shouldn't be any problems.

    EDIT: That is A LOT of money a month. Lol The low protein foods are also made for dalmatians. Or so I like to think. ;-D Dalmatians are missing an enzyme so they just build up the uric acid in their urinary tract. All dalmatians are predisposed to stones... but only some of them have them. Very interesting. So they say to keep them on a low purine (like chicken), diet. Which many people think is low protein. (your 21-23 percents) Since organs are immensely high in purines, Delta cannot have them, so I have substituted them with a fruit smoothie made of a few different things: Peanut butter, applesauce, and two bolthouse fruit smoothie drinks. Very interesting. Lol Just my diet restrictions I have to work with so you don't feel alone. LoL!
