Ever since Stella & Chewy's had the recall, it's been madness at my place.

Some of you may know that I'm very anal about what I want to feed my boys. We've been through Fromm, Stella & Chewy's Raw, Royal Canine HP (rx food) for skin issues, then back to S & C, and now on Canidae because of the Stella recall.

While I like Canidae, I've sent them emails asking various questions and have received very vague responses which turns me off. So I went back to looking for a food that I'm more comfortable feeding.

I have very specific requirements when it comes to kibble.

1. I need to know where the meat, fruits and vegetables are sourced from.
2. I need to know where the food is made.
3. I need the ingredient list to contain named animals
4. Has to be grain free
5. No animal by-products
6. Animal based protein kibble, not plant (legumes).

Apparently, it's not very easy to meet the above. At least I was having a problem.
So when I found Farmina, an Italian pet food company, I was excited.

Farmina Pet Foods - Happy pet. Happy You. | Happy pet. Happy you.

According to their page, they've met all my requirements. Didn't even need to contact them to find out where they source from, everything's listed.

I did a search for them here and only found them mentioned a few times, but there wasn't any info.

So I'm about to go ahead and order their "Farmina Natural & Delicious Wild Herring Grain-Free Formula Dry Dog Food".
Fingers crossed this is the one!

Thanks guys.

I'm hoping it does too. My plan is to eventually go back to raw feeding (with me doing it myself) but for now it has to be kibble.
