How to Feed Our Freeze-dried Raw Food for Dogs and Cats

If you are transitioning to raw, we suggest transitioning over a 1-2 week period. Check out our transitioning guide here for more information and tips for switching over your pets.

Portion

Start with a clean, airtight container and portion your pet’s daily feeding amount into it. If feeding multiple times a day, divide the recommended daily feeding amount by number of feedings per day.

Rehydrate

Add ¾ cup of WARM water per every 1 cup of food. Stir to ensure even hydration. Let the liquid absorb into the food for a minimum of 10 minutes.

Serve

Once fully rehydrated, serve it to your pet on a clean dish. Thoroughly wash your hands and sanitize all areas that come into contact with the raw food to promote a safe feeding environment.

How Much to Feed

Each four-legged friend will metabolize food differently based on their activity level, breed, age, etc. Use our feeding calculator as a starting point for your pet, and adjust the feeding amount as necessary to help your pet achieve an ideal body weight.

Safe Handling Raw Pet Food

Treat raw pet food with the same care as handling raw meat for your consumption. Always wash your hands, pet bowls, and any surfaces that come into contact with the raw food.

Freeze-Dried Turkey FAQ

How big are the bags of freeze dry food?

Our original freeze-dried diets are available in 1.25 lb (20 oz) bags and makes 5 pounds of food once it’s rehydrated.

Do you have to rehydrate freeze-dry dog food?

Yes. You should always rehydrate freeze-dried food before feeding it to your dog or cat as a meal. While a few nuggets fed dry as treats are fine, moisture is necessary for proper digestion. If you don’t rehydrate the meal before your pet eats it, it will absorb the water in their gut, which could dehydrate your dog or cat. Feeding dry in large amounts can lead to discomfort, constipation, or, in severe cases, intestinal blockage.

What should I use to rehydrate the freeze-dried raw dog food?

Hot water is easy and works well, but other great options to enhance the meal are low-sodium bone broth, raw goat milk, or kefir. Note: If you are rehydrating with a cold or thick liquid, such as kefir, the rehydration will take much longer.

How long is freeze-dried pet food good for?

The food has an unopened shelf life until the expiration date, which is typically 18 months.

Ella Day – March 24, 2023

Love this product! It’s my dog’s favorite treat to have. It’s perfect for training with the size and breaks apart. It doesn’t have a strong smell and it’s not as messy as other freeze dried. It works really well with enrichment and as food toppers for picky big dogs. Its also great for my small dog as whole meals!

Add a review

Consider our freeze-dried turkey raw recipe for the following reasons:

Lean Protein: Turkey is a lean protein source that provides ample nutrition without excessive fat content. This makes it an excellent choice for pets that need to maintain a healthy weight.

Novel Protein: Turkey is considered a novel protein, which means it is less likely to trigger food sensitivities in pets who have reacted to more common proteins.

Rich in Nutrients: Turkey is packed with essential nutrients such as vitamins B3 (niacin), B6, and B12, which support energy metabolism, brain function, and overall vitality.

Variety in Diet: Feeding your pet a variety of protein sources, including turkey, can help prevent food sensitivities from developing due to repeated exposure to a single protein.

Convenient Bite-Sized Nuggets

Nuggets are shaped into tater-tot-sized pieces that are easy to scoop, and excellent at quickly rehydrating.
