Because of the importance of moisture in a raw diet, Primal recommends rehydrating this product with water or Primal Raw Goat Milk for optimum nutrition absorption. To rehydrate add 1 tablespoon of water or raw goat milk for every nugget, or 1/4 cup for 4 nuggets. For best rehydrating results, break nuggets into small pieces and mix thoroughly to force moisture into product.
-
Feed adult dogs the equivalent of 2-3% of their body weight in rehydrated food per day.
Transition slowly. Begin by mixing 1/4 parts freeze-dried to 3/4 parts current diet. Gradually increase amount of freeze-dried daily.
-
Adult dogs: Divide total daily feeding portion into 2 meals.
-
Puppies and pregnant or lactating females: Divide total daily feeding portion into 3-4 meals.

Great alternative for frozen food
By Feline on Jun 7, 2021
I normally feed my dog frozen raw food but in some cases (f.e. while traveling) frozen food is not an option. That's why I wanted to try out the Freeze-Dried food which, just by adding water, turns into a savory meal. It's nice to see there are other options on the market besides beef, chicken, and lamb, so I decided to try the Turkey & Sardine flavor. Jax really loves it (and so do my cats, lol). I have stocked up on the other flavors as well and will try them out soon to see if they are equally liked by my puppy.

Product changed for the worst!!!
By Kittygirl on May 3, 2021
I totally agree with Utterly Disappointed’s review. My dog absolutely went crazy for this flavor, so I got more, and every bath I’ve bought after the first one smells like chemicals and my dog won’t touch it! I’m so sad, because I didn’t mind spending the money on this product, but I can’t buy it anymore. I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed it!

Problem Solved
By Paws on May 2, 2021
My Minpin has loved this food for years. My issue with it was how hard it was on my hands to crush it. The problem was solved nicely when I decided to try my lemon squeezer. Nothing came out of the holes, but the nuggets crushed great! I would recommend that to anyone with the same problem.

Seems Stale
By NancyD on Jun 20, 2021
Wow, so hard that even after soaking for 15 minutes, couldn't break up the pieces. And my dog would not eat it. Expensive mistake.

Food booster

Love this product
By Dogmom on Mar 6, 2021
We have been feeding our dogs this for a couple years now. We crumple a block on top of their kibble, they love it! It is so convenient to bring anywhere if you travel with your dogs and want them on a raw food diet. Love this product!

These are amazing - wish they didn't cost so much
By TopazCockers on Feb 19, 2021
When I opened the bag even my nearly 15 year old cocker spun with joy! Then when I read the bag and realized I had to feed 9 cubes - well, this was going to be a little too costly to use as a primary food but will be great - super great - as a topper to another nutritious dry food.
