We are moving in September with our 3 dogs and I'm hoping to find out some info on dog food before we get there.

We currently feed our dogs a raw diet....but will be unable to do this in quarantine so we are hoping to find a dry food that would be considered "closest" to a raw diet.

Any suggestions?

Something that is high-end, wheat-free and as "natural" as possible.

Thanks!

I have a friend that is a sales rep for Nutrience, and she keeps trying to get me to buy it!

Its not cheap by any means, over $100 for a 15kg bag, but it does not have any animal by products in it at all. Our kennels feed it to our dog when he is there, and he seems to like it! It is a dried food. http://www.nutrience.co.nz/

there are a couple of other similar brands here, but all pretty pricey.

Look into Canidae and NutraGold Holistic. That's the best I've found in NZ. They don't have Evo here.

You can get Nutro Choice in NZ, again not cheap about $115 for 15kg but suited our boy after having stomach op. He's a large mountain dog so needs good quality calories. They have a range of hypoallergenic, high meat products. Apparently their food is sold world wide so if you wanted you could try your dogs on any new food before they go into kennels.
All the best for shipping your dogs over, having my boy here with me made the world of difference.
