I've been scanning all the information here in the BARF section and trying to get a good eye on things for a raw diet. I currently feed my 26 month old GSD a mix of Royal Canin puppy kibble and pre packaged raw diet, Natures Variety. She is loving the raw diet and the puppy kibble as well. I would like to see her gain about another 10-15 lbs to be comfortable with her size. She is on the slender side, currently about 56-58 lbs, and her bones do not horribly portrude from her body but they are easily felt when petting and brushing. She gets fed 2x a day, one of the feedings she eats her entire bowl and the second she just kinda picks at it.

While transitioning her to full raw, are there any pre packaged raw foods you guys could recommend for her? I wanna make the switch to raw cause she just seems to have more energy and is more "puppy-like" around the house and yard.

I haven't made the full switch as I am still trying to collect more knowledge and insight on this but would still like to keep her on at least a partial raw.

Thanks in advance ladies and gents!

P.S. I'll post a picture of her when I get home so you can physically see what I mean size wise.
