About Instinct Freeze-Dried Raw Meals for Dogs

Complete & Balanced Raw Meals

Instinct Freeze-Dried Raw meals are minimally processed and never cooked, preserving the integrity of their ingredients and nutrients for 100% complete and balanced nutrition. Available in a variety of proteins, these freeze-dried raw meals feature 3x more real meat and nutrient-rich organs than Instinct Original kibble, for more flavor and animal protein in every bite.

All The Benefits of Raw Nutrition

Instinct Freeze-Dried Raw Meals are made with real, natural ingredients and never cooked, to retain the raw ingredients’ natural flavors, valuable antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. The result is a more nutritious, healthy food that is shelf stable and convenient—simply scoop and serve like kibble or add water for extra moisture.

Minimally Processed and Never Cooked

Eating a diet rich in minimally processed foods is just as good for our pets as it is for us. Made with responsibly sourced meat and non-GMO fruits and vegetables, Instinct raw recipes are minimally processed—and never cooked—to keep their nutrients intact. Less processed food allows better digestion and nutrient absorption, so your furry friend gets more nutrients in every bite.

The Raw Difference

Unlike traditional, cooked pet foods, raw pet food retains more important antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that are key to helping your pet live a healthier life. Common changes noticed by pet parents who feed raw include better digestion, improved skin and coat, improved weight, relief from food sensitivities, and increased energy and vitality. Feeding as little as 20% raw as part of your pet’s diet can have a positive impact on your pet’s life.

Outstanding Food

This amazing food and it’s a result of no more rash and nasty poops. My dog was treated for so many different types of rashes but I finally decided to change Frankie’s

This amazing food and it’s a result of no more rash and nasty poops. My dog was treated for so many different types of rashes but I finally decided to change Frankie’s food from kibble to freeze dried. Within a couple of weeks no more nasty poops and no gas. His gas was so smelly would chase me out of the room. Poops is so much easier to remove from my yard. There are different flavors but Frankie loves the Alaskan Pollock. We are excited that rash is finally gone and no vet visits for his problem. Frankie said “My mom tried it for me and I said I like it”

Read the ingredients

These contain beef. My fault for not reading the ingredients list and assuming they were made of a single protein source. Otherwise they're fine - nice sized morsels

These contain beef. My fault for not reading the ingredients list and assuming they were made of a single protein source. Otherwise they're fine - nice sized morsels that aren't too crumbly.

My dog did not eat, but great ingredients

My dog does not really like this one. She would not eat it. I mixed it with her usual food and she picked around it.

Kona is PICKY and these freeze dried pellets are easy for me to squeeze into "dust" and put over his food like a powder. HE LOVES THEM and it gets him going to eat the rest of his meal. I highly recommend them. My other dogs always get one as a treat, but they really help him take his meds and eat regularly.
