That's very interesting as you have remarkable dogs. Do you buy it pre made or ....?

No we mix all our own couldn,t afford to buy premixed raw for 9 dogs. We are able to ajust intake and any supliments for each dog as need be. The olnly time we feed kibble is if we are travelling and cannot acomidate the raw food. Them it is puria pro plan performance. It is one of the few kibbles that doesnt set off the dogs when switched off and then back to raw. We have had good sucess with raw multiple litters and top performing dogs raised as soon as they are weened to the raw diet. The growth rate of the pups is slower and better muscle mass and dencity. No stinky breath smaller stool with no stink. Dont see us changing any time soon.

Do you send your dog's diet plan home with the pups you sell?

Fed all different formulations of raw for at least 12 years with satisfactory success. i got tired of all the time spent on mixing diets that I eventually purchased already premixed in 50lb frozen blocks. Had a kennel of huskies varying in numbers from 16 to 24 dogs at one time that demanded constant attention. I eventually had to decide what my time was worth fooling around with a raw diet and wanting to spend more time training. I did the switch from raw to high performance kibble and became a distributor of Dr. Tim's to offset the cost. That was when I saw a huge difference in the teams performance feeding the Dr. Tim's Momentum dog food. I look back and should of had a smaller kennel(8 to 10 dogs ) and feed a high performance kibble and spend the time training and running dogs.Most people I was affiliated with also eventually made the switch to high performance kibble and using raw to bait hot water after a run to rehydrate.

Yes we send the pups home each with a binder with a quide outlining proper care for thier new pup from diet to training guide to get each new owner started on the right foot. The binder also contains a copy of pedigree, clearances of parents proof of multiple deworming first vacsination and weight records from when the pup was born.

My labs never liked the salmon based dog foods and stuck with the chicken base. Plus the the mercury content in salmon has always scared me away.

Is it guaranteed? If so return it for full refund.

I mix in a little canned tripe every now and again (usually one meal per day - good probiotic) and it adds some pizzazz to the kibble.

I buy it by the case and it lasts months.

I use to buy whole tripe from a slaughter house frozen chop it up and run it through my motorized meat grinder. The dogs loved it and a few of the hound guys in the area fed tripe and a cheap kibble mix. My other buddy has a large scale egg operation and when his layers were at the end of there life producing eggs I was able to buy whole chickens for .50 cents a piece. A few of us guys would buy up a couple hundred and grind whole chicken, not alive of course for raw dog food. A lot of work went into the raw diet but was something we enjoyed doing.
