About Instinct Raw Boost Mixers for Dogs

Tasty Raw Toppers for a Nutritious Boost

Add excitement and variety to your dog’s meals with Instinct Raw Boost Mixers. Available in a variety of proteins, these freeze-dried raw pieces combine real meat and organs with whole-food ingredients to support happy, healthy pets. Use them as an all-natural meal topper or healthy treat for a delicious boost of nutrition!

A Daily Boost of Raw for Overall Health

Instinct Raw Boost Mixers are nutrient-dense, freeze-dried raw pieces that are packed with protein, plus wholesome, non-GMO fruits and vegetables. Simply bursting with flavor, they offer an easy way to add raw nutrition to your pet’s diet.

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.

This freeze-dried topper is shelf-stable and does not require refrigeration. Unopened Mixers have a shelf life of two years, keeping in mind not to exceed the printed expiration date. Once opened, Mixers are fresh for up to 30 days as long as it’s resealed between feedings.

Raw and easy to feed

All 4 of my dogs love this. I completely stopped feeding them their dry dog food and switched. Have one dog with severe allergies so hoping this will help him

All 4 of my dogs love this. I completely stopped feeding them their dry dog food and switched. Have one dog with severe allergies so hoping this will help him but too soon to tell. Love that it’s freeze dried and don’t take up room in the freezer or fridge. Expensive but if it helps my dogs allergies it will be worth it.

Unappetizing texture

This is like sawdust served dry. I added broth to it and it looks like oatmeal. Lucy does not always eat right away and this glues itself to the bowl when it sits

Chunky Not Crumbly!

I was very pleased with this freeze dried dog topper as I have purchased others and wound up getting mostly bits n pieces, crumbs and/or dust of the product. But not this one! Full uniformed chunks if you will throughout the entire package! And we're my dogs pleased? Well let me say this, I couldn't find the package after I had unpacked it from the box. I knew I Had unpacked it....so where the heck? It was on my bed with teef marks punctured through it, compliments if my husky. So I gave them all a quick taste, oh yes paws down they all loved it and wanted more! Will buy again. Highly recommend. I bought the beef kind.
