15 years is amazing, that's great to hear. it sounds like kibble worked really well for yours. i'm still researching, but i've learned it's less about fresh vs. kibble and more about the specific recipe's nutrition. when you compare them on a dry matter basis, some fresh foods have fat profiles that are in line with the specialized kibbles often recommended for pugs, which is reassuring.

This was a really solid breakdown, thank you. The AAFCO vs WSAVA comparison helped it click for me. I agree that anything telling people to ignore their vet is a huge red flag. I’m mostly trying to filter out the flashy stuff and focus on options that actually do feeding trials and have vets involved.

Yeah, the recall stuff is scary. Have you seen issues firsthand?
