Instinct Frozen Raw Patties Grain-Free Real Beef Recipe Dog Food, 6-lb bag

I ordered two bags (48 patties). I thawed two patties for my two dogs. My dogs smelled it, and refused to eat them. I encouraged them to eat it. They took a few bites and refused to eat them afterwards. I then tried to cooking them and mixed it with their with favorite dry food. They still refused to eat it. I am very disappointed in this product.

I've been buying the lamb Instinct, but saw Chewy was out of them this time, so added the beef instead. I only use as a topper as I cook for her, but I want her to eat some raw. Sometimes she doesnt like beef when I make it, but she loves this! They are large patties too!

I have two dogs on raw diet,not picky eaters. They used to like raw beef patties when those first became available, but something happened and they would not touch it anymore. Last order still in my freezer unused. I defrosted one patty yesterday and my little one literally gagged after smelling it and walked away. I had to switch to whole raw chicken from store and veggies.

I was so excited to try these raw patties on our pooch for the “celebrated” health benefits of raw food diet and frankly for the convenience of not having to handle raw chicken parts daily......however, our doggie refuses to touch these patties. I have tried serving them warm, cold, semi warm-semi cold, frozen, gravy on top and cooked and she just won’t touch them. By all accounts she is not a picky or finicky eater but she does gently sniff and analyze her food and usually eats what we put in front of her. These obviously don’t pass the sniff test for her and are a total waste of money for me. Chewy service is exceptional but I wish there were sample packets for raw foods that dogs may or may I was so excited to try these raw patties on our pooch for the “celebrated” health benefits of raw food diet and frankly for the convenience of not having to handle raw chicken parts daily......however, our doggie refuses to touch these patties.

Our dogs love these patties and do very well with them. But unfortunately one of our bags was cut by what I assume was a box cutter maybe. They still seemed ok to feed but I wouldn’t have been happy if they weren’t frozen and in a sealed bag

Patties were great But I would really like and be happy and continue to order for two large dogs. Would love you to get the larger patties 12 in a bag Instead of the 24 in a bag Also because the ingredients are better in larger patties

My pup is such a picky eater...if you know the french bulldog/ boston terrier breed, then you know what i'm saying... I ordered this in hopes he'd love it, and he did. Thor gobbled it up when he decided to eat; however, the only issue I have is that my pup doesn't always eat right away (even though his food is thawed and ready). Then the food turns brown or dark brown. Occasionally, I'll place it on the floor still frozen because I know he won't eat it right away. Sometimes, when I come home there's no food left or there is and its that icky brown color. I guess I'm saying, a pack of hamburger lasts longer than the food. Occasionally I'd put it in the fridge overnight and take it out in the My pup is such a picky eater...if you know the french bulldog/ boston terrier breed, then you know what i'm saying...

Occasionally I'd put it in the fridge overnight and take it out in the morning. Sometimes it was brown almost to the dark brown stage as well. Sometimes it wasn't. It seems to be a really hit or miss product and you have to be able to time it perfectly. With my busy schedule it's hard. Personally, I will be attempting to find a different dog food that will work better for me and Thor. Overall, a great dog food, but make sure your dog will eat it right away!! … more

My dog likes the instinct frozen raw bites so I tried these patties and she won’t eat it at all. I’m not sure what the difference is. I even cut up the patties for her into little pieces and she refuses to eat it. She’ll sniff her bowl and walk away. :(

I never write reviews, but wanted to write one for this product. I have a 17lb Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who suddenly stopped eating his kibble when he was round 3 months old. I tried several different brands including different textures of wet food to no avail. I then heard about the raw diet, and we tried a few brands of raw food. He liked each one, but still not enough where I didn't have to coax him to start eating. Instinct is the first food I've found where he happily eats right as I put his bowl on the ground. He's been eating it for the last three months and we've had no issues! His coat is full and shiny, he's hydrated, and he has plenty of energy. The auto ship feature is also great I never write reviews, but wanted to write one for this product.

MY DOG LOVES THE INSTINCT raw beef medallions. They're convenient to serve also.
