I go to petsmart and petco. I also just checked out a really small local store but didn't see any there either...

Sometimes I give him scrambled eggs for breakfast. As for treats, he gets either a begging strip or a milkbone twice a day. He also gets carrots occasionally. I've been considering raw feeding for awhile but I'm still not too sure about it. I've also been considering switching him to freshpet select or the honest kitchen food. I have a really hard time giving him new things cause of everything that can go wrong. I'm so scared that I'm gonna give him something that's gonna hurt him. I know I worry way too much and I know kibble is not the best thing for him but I wouldn't be able to live with myself if something happened to him because of something I did or gave him. So I have to be completely sure about something before I do it. I know I'm probably bring a little irrational but that's me and I can't help it. And I just don't feel comfortable enough to feed him raw. Do yall think cooking him food or giving him fresh select or honest kitchen would be good alternatives to feeding him raw? I really wouldn't mind cooking for him, I would actually love to do that, but I need to know what and how much to give him. For now, I'm just gonna go ahead and cook up some chicken and rice for him.
