Start with a clean, airtight container and portion your pet’s daily feeding amount into it. If feeding multiple times a day, divide the daily feeding amount by number of feedings per day.
Place the airtight container of raw food in the fridge overnight to thaw. *If you forget to thaw the food, you can add some warm water to the food or place the food in a bag submerged in warm water for a quick thaw.
Remove the thawed food from the fridge and 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.
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.
Our original freeze-dried diets are available in 1.25 lb (20 oz) bags and makes 5 pounds of food once it’s rehydrated.
If you are feeding it as the pet’s main diet, YES, it is vitally important to rehydrate the foods before feeding them. To make rehydration easy, we have made our freeze-dried foods soft and easy to crumble. This allows the food to absorb moisture quickly. If you use freeze-dried pet food as a treat, rehydrating is NOT required.
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.
The parasite that causes the most concern in pork is a roundworm called Trichinella spiralis, which can cause the disease state trichinosis. It used to be common in the United States, but that was long ago. Fortunately, infections are now quite rare in domestic pork in the US. Legislation changed many years ago, prohibiting feeding raw meat garbage to hogs. Sadly, people used to feed pigs pretty much anything they wanted to get rid of. Today, Trichinella is almost exclusively associated with eating undercooked wild game meat, specifically carnivores and omnivores, like wild boar.
Even though the risk is already very low, we take several steps to ensure our pork diets are clean and safe, starting with sourcing from high-quality family farms that raise free-range pigs fed a species-appropriate diet. Our manufacturing process includes high-pressure processing. This cold-water pressure method effectively eliminates pathogens such as harmful bacteria and parasites. Finally, we freeze the pork to temperatures well below what the CDC recommends for killing trichinella and other parasites.
Yes, dogs can eat pork. When many people think of pork, they think of greasy bacon, which is not healthy for dogs or people. However, we use muscle meat, which is very lean and packed with essential vitamins and minerals; it’s high in protein and one of the lowest percentage fat diets in our lineup. Pork is considered a novel protein, so it may be an excellent option if your dog is intolerant to poultry or beef.

My favorite recipe! Pork is so underrated, and I feel many pet parents are afraid to feed it. If you have a sensitive or allergy dog, feed them pork! It’s packed with omega 3 and amino acids. It’s also a neutral protein which is fantastic for allergy dogs and dogs that run warm. I always buy a variety of proteins, but never leave without multiple bags of pork!

I love Steve’s freeze dried options! I use them in my dog’s meals, but also as treats! The nuggets break apart super easily, making for the perfect training treat.

Absolutely love the pork. A couple of my dogs have severe allergies and have done extremely well on the pork. Love the convenience of freeze dried!

We brought a bag of FD pork with us for the dogs during our beach vacation trip. It was our first trip with the dogs, so ease and convenience was key! I’m so glad to have something so minimally processed and nutritious, but also incredibly quick and easy as an option for our future family trips!
