Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Dog Food, Raw Turkey Crunchy Mini Nibs | Complete Meal or Topper | 96% Turkey, Organs & Bone | Limited Ingredient, High Protein, Grain Free Dry Dog Food | 25 oz Bag

I love freeze dried dog food. It is just a quality product and great for dogs. It is easy to store in sealed plastic containers. Since its freeze dried a little goes a long way. Very healthy diet for any dog. That being said it is extremely expensive and not doable for most pet owners. I have a small dog so its not bad. But I couldn't imagine the cost for a large dog or multiple dog homes. But if you can afford it I would highly recommend. The texture is soft and it breaks up easily in water. I didn't notice a strong smell, less smelly then average wet foods. I started buying these for my three senior mini schnauzers. They lived to 20 and 18. Before this I would cook and prepare their meals. Not everyone can do that so this is a good option.

My French Bulldog dog loves this food. He will pass up his can food for this dry dog food!! It is expensive, but he has not been eating his feet.

My dog loves it, limited ingredients and raw freeze dried. We buy this or other VE products weekly. I use it as a topper and in a treat ball. We buy a lot from the Raw Bar too. Duck heads, pig snouts and salmon skin. I highly recommend. My only complaint is that sometimes you get a bag that is very clumpy. This is an inconvenience when trying to use in the treat ball as you have to break up the clumps.

I transitioned my 10 year old Chihuahua to a fully raw diet for health and behavioral reasons (as directed by our vet) and he LOVES this food. This is a wonderful option for smaller dogs who are not able to eat chicken. It does tend to be a more expensive food compared to some of the other air-dried options but this one has been more popular with my dog than the others. There is no smell to it (woo hoo!), he loves the taste, his health overall has gotten better, and he is able to chew these with no problem (they are small and fairly soft). Would recommend!

This is really great food, but i had to quit using it. One of my dogs became a diabetic and I had to find food that was lower in sugar. My dogs loved all the different proteins to choose from too.

Junior likes it! I mix one 1/4 cup 1/2 and 1/2 with instinct chicken flavor so 1/8 cup turkey and 1/8 cup instinct. and 1/4 cup Dr Marty’s - total 1/2 cup for breakfast. Dog is 24.5 LB and a picky eater. This has worked for breakfast. Dinner is Lamb instinct and Dr. Marty’s total 1/2 cup so one full cup a day + treats. He is down from 27 to 24.5 over a long time. One year reduction from 26 to 24.5 LB - he likes that the turkey has a more crunchy texture

We have a 15 year old chihuahua and recently got a new heeler puppy, yes we’re crazy lol. The new puppy is of course always hungry due to how much energy she burns. Well we wanted to get her off to a healthier start and get our older chihuahua back to being more energetic, yes knowing he is an old man lol. We are now 6 months into this food topper, we mix with Wild Red (Red Meat Blend) and have noticed a significant change in both dogs. Coats are healthier, more energy, and overall healthier. We were feeding our puppy twice a day, once in AM and once at PM. When we switched over, a few days in, she wouldn’t really eat in the morning. We changed to once at night and now she eats all of her food! Dogs need a high protein diet and high protein means being more full so we know it’s great food for both of them. Our senior dog gets excited about dinner now! Highly recommend with no nasty byproducts!

Our dog trainer recommended these as training treats - works great, dog loves them as treats. Have them on once monthly auto ship
