I feel ya on the travel woes. I have not found that dehydrated raw that digests as well as a frozen/fresh raw food, based purely on stool output, though it is definitely more convenient. When we travel to most places we've been able to just raid the grocery store to keep from having to store a bunch on hand, but not all destinations support that option. An anectodal perk to feed raw food is that a dog's digestive system is better able to handle change so having to do a brand swap or switch to dehydrated cold turkey does not present the same issues it did when we were feeding strictly kibble.
