I want to add some all meat canned food to my 2 dogs kibble. What is a good affordable one with all meat and no fillers? Thanks.

i use B.G., Instinct (Natures Variety), 100% ground beef (human food),
(canned no salt added) Salmon, Mackerel, Sardines. when it comes to the dog can food i use others . B.G. and Instinct are the ones i have on hand.
i also feed my dog cooked boneless and skinless chicken breast, raw
chicken backs, kibble, some table scraps (no seasoning).

Note that Evanger's 100% meat products are not "complete," which means they are not calcium supplemented. That's ok with most kibbles which have an excess of calcium. You can probably feed 25% of the diet with these foods along with kibble without creating a deficiency.

But it might just be easier to feed Before Grain, which is "100% complete."

I don't know what you mean by a good price or ?? But I am now using both By Natural and Whole Earth farms. Both are 1.39 a can, where I live and you can get W.E.F's at (ugh) Petco. What I also do is buy cheap roast's at Costco business center and cut the best slices for me then cut the rest up freeze it in small snack bags and give that to him. He thinks he is getting a big time treat.

I too am a big Evanger's fan. I order online but their 100% classic meats are around $1 a 13 oz. can. I also like By Nature and use their 100% organic foods. You can find them on sale occasionally at <$1.50 a 13 oz. can.

Note: I mix all of these with kibble.

Are all of these all meat, or 95% meat cans, as gross and watery as Before Grain? Before Grain just seems FULL of water... it's pretty disgusting. I've just been buying canned foods that are complete and balanced and I just put a tiny bit into Jackson's kibble and mix it around. But I'd like to try out By Nature cans as long as they're not as watery as BG.

Why not cook your own meat? Cheaper and super easy.. can make a big batch on the stove or in the oven and freeze.
