Feeding Instructions

Complete Raw Nutrition Made Simple

Every dog deserves the benefits of raw protein. Vital Essentials frozen patties offer whole-animal nutrition with Butcher Cut Protein in a variety of flavors. Just thaw, serve, and watch your dog thrive with complete and balanced raw nutrition.

Even 20% Makes A Difference

Every pet deserves the benefits of raw protein. Try adding raw meals weekly, mix raw in with kibble, or offer it as a treat. Even a small amount—just 20% of their daily intake—can make a big difference in their health.

No Shortcuts. Only Butcher Cuts.

Vital Essentials Butcher Cut proteins go into a blast freezer at -23°F within 45 minutes of harvest. The meat is ground only once to preserve the natural flavor and texture your dog craves. This minimal processing maximizes nutrients for your pup, too.

Going raw with 4 Yorkies

I received Vital Essentials Beef Entree Frozen Raw Patties to try with my dogs. While many of my dog owner friends prefer to feed raw food, I hesitated because I feared salmonella for me and my dogs. Fortunately,Vital Essentials included instructions on the bag to avoid this situation. As all good dog moms know, you can't stop feeding one kind of food and immediately start another without upset stomachs. I have 4 small Yorkies so I started by defrosting one pattie and putting several spoonfuls on top of their kibble and sweet potatoes. Then I watched and waited to see if they would taste it and walk away. The dog devoured everything! I was especially happy with the smooth, fine texture of the pattie. Even small dogs or dogs with missing teeth could easily chew it and they really enjoyed the flavor. I recommended it to my friends. Over time I am switching from kibble to the raw food taking care to wash my hands, counter, their dishes - everything that I touch. Vital Essentials were excellent in showing how to switch from kibble to the raw food. I also paid attention to the dogs' stool in case of diarrhea. But there was no issue. This is an excellent dog food made in the USA. Give it a try if you are considering going raw.

Your dogs and their health will thank you!

I was a bit hesitant at first to feed to my 12 year old Great Pyrenees. I also have an 8 year old German Shepard with a skin issue. In true Chewy fashion, the food arrived quickly. It was packaged still frozen in a well done box with padding and dry ice. I opened it and it seriously looks alot like frozen hamburger meat. I placed two servings in a bowl with saran wrap and placed in fridge to thaw. Both of my boys were so happy to have this treat. I feed dry kibble, so they savored every bite. I noticed my Pyrenees poop change color in a positive way, and with no straining his elderly hips. The German came over and actually hugged me after the first serving. I have been feeding 2×'s a week. Just so they can continue to enjoy it, and not throw their tummies in shock. I hoenstly think it has helped the Pyrenees move a bit better. Both of their coats look even healthy with the added product. I can see this a future purchase for the guys. Thank you Chewy!

The product arrived in a secure box with dry ice still frozen. We thawed a few patties to try with our two dogs over the next several days. They wouldn’t eat it raw (texture probably disagreed with them-it was quite slimy) so we had to cook it up in the microwave and then they loved it! Cooking it up did smell up the house though (though I know that’s not the recommended way to do it). It did cause some digestive issues with our German Shepherd but not with our Beagle. Since it is a different consistency than our dry dog food it’s difficult to measure 15% or 25% so they didn’t get too much to start off. Also, if you thaw too much at once you run the risk of losing it. Overall, it’s not something we’re interested in due to the large amount of manual work it would take to make it worth our while. If your dogs are used to raw meats or wet dog food it might be for them!

My senior dog, Cocoa, loves this food. We got the beef variety and I started by mixing half her previous dry food with half the suggested beef. The meat arrived frozen and I stored it in the freezer. Every few days I take 3 patties and put them in a plastic container in the refrigerator to defrost. When they are gone I take out 3 more. I also have cats, so I have had to keep an eye on them during meals because they also want some of Cocoa's food.

Dogs won’t touch

I think this company has a good reputation, maybe this was an off batch. My beef loving dogs wouldn’t touch it, not even with cheese mixed in

Great ingredients

I feed my dogs a raw meat diet. These patties are healthy and I just add a few vegetables and/ or canned pumpkin and I know they are getting a very healthy diet

They love it! High quality and nutritious. They can’t get enough. Chewy has also managed the supply chain perfectly to keep things frozen and deliver on time. I’ve got giants and unlikely to switch to this on mail order because of the quantity I need for my pups. Great product but I’ll look locally if I switch as their primary feed. Too much packaging, dry ice and environmental impact for my conscience.

Too good to eat just one.

I would love to show a photo of my dogs enjoying this food but I left it on the counter to take a call and my Labrador decided it was Thanksgiving and polished off

I would love to show a photo of my dogs enjoying this food but I left it on the counter to take a call and my Labrador decided it was Thanksgiving and polished off the bag. He clearly gives it 5 stars!!!! And he had no digestion issues so I will be purchasing a replacement for the rest of the Chihuahua crew. If the lab loved it the chis will too.

This is easily one of the best frozen raw dog foods we've tried. The dogs both love it (rarely happens), I like the ingredients, it thaws nicely in the fridge, and the bricks are a good size. My only complaint is that I really hate the texture of it, because it gets really thin and almost soupy after it's thawed.

Good Product

Truthfully, I’m not a raw loyalist. We’ve tried some food and bones here and there though. This food was packaged so well. It comes in bars making it easy to defrost

Truthfully, I’m not a raw loyalist. We’ve tried some food and bones here and there though. This food was packaged so well. It comes in bars making it easy to defrost and portion as needed. It was also packed wonderfully insulated with dry ice. My dogs enjoyed this as a topper to their dry food.
