Maybe I should switch to NV. The S&C stuff is $25/16 oz. bag with approx. 32 patties so about 1/2 oz. and 70 cal. per patty. If we move to raw at both morning and night feedings, that would be at least 4 patties per pug per day so that would be 12 patties a day, or a bag every 2.5 days. That's a little over $300/month. That's a little insane, isn't it?

With the NV, do you have to be super careful with washing dishes and stuff? That was the main draw to S&C, that we could be a lot more lax about cleanliness because of the way they process the food. Karl always forgets to pick up the dishes after feeding and Logan is always playing with them. If Logan gets sick because I switched the pugs to raw, Karl is going to kick my ass.

I believe NV makes a dehydrated raw as well but I've never seen it in the stores I frequent. I don't know the cost either.

A quick Google search got me this store where it is $25 a bag which seems to be the going price on line..
