Review: My dog loves these as toppers! - I have a 9 lb picky chihuahua rescue with virtually no teeth. I initially bought the toppers of this brand and he loved them, so I decided to try the kibble version thinking he would basically just be jazzed to eat a whole bowl of his favorite treats. However, it is NOT cost-effective used as a daily meal, and especially for a larger dog, I would not use it regularly. That said, as a topper and treat, it's fantastic. Very similar to the actual toppers they sell, but he seems to prefer this formula better and will now snub the original toppers. They are crumbly (very crumbly and flaky, so beware of messes if you break them up) and soft and the perfect size for him - as treats I break them into 2-3 pieces. For a topper I put 3-4 of them smushed/broken up on top of his regular food with his other toppers. While this is not an affordable (IMO) source of complete nutrition/food compared to other kibble brands, I would highly recommend it as a topper at least, and if you CAN afford it then your dog is very lucky! Review: My dog loves it….. and so does my cat! 🤷‍♀️😂 - I bought this for my chonky Pomeranian after we moved and I couldn’t find the fresh frozen food he’d been eating, and still needed a food I could carefully measure for weight loss. I add hot water then mash up and he loves it, plus he’s lost a little weight. He has food allergies and I was worried it would cause diarrhea, but his poop has been perfect on this food. Interestingly, my picky Siamese cat ALSO loves it, so I give it to him as a treat crumbled up. Just wish it was a bit cheaper. ## Features - UPGRADE FROM KIBBLE TO FREEZE-DRIED RAW: 3x more real meat & nutrient-rich organs than Instinct Original Kibble, delivering high-quality animal protein for strong, lean muscles - MINIMALLY PROCESSED: Never cooked and less processed than kibble to preserve ingredient integrity, nutrients, and deliver complete, balanced nutrition - POWER OF RAW: Feeding raw supports healthy digestion, lean muscles, strong bones, and vibrant skin & coat - NATURAL INGREDIENTS: Made with 85% meat & organs and 15% non-GMO fruits, vegetables, vitamins & minerals; free from grain, corn, wheat, soy, legumes, artificial colors & preservatives. - CRAFTED IN THE USA: Made in the USA with the finest ingredients from around the world for a wholesome, complete diet ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B084DH4PKY | | Additional Features | Freeze Dried Raw, Grain Free | | Age Range (Description) | All Life Stages | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Allergen Information | Gluten Free, Wheat Free | | Animal Food Diet Type | Raw | | Best Sellers Rank | #78,800 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #348 in Freeze-Dried Dog Food | | Brand | Instinct | | Brand Name | Instinct | | Breed Recommendation | All Breed Sizes | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 567 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | All | | Flavor | Chicken | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00769949614012 | | Included Components | One (1) 9.5 oz.

So overall it’s good product but kinda pricey for size bag you get. These basically just gonna be used as treats. ## Frequently Bought Together - Raw Meals Freeze-Dried Chicken Dog Food, 9.5 oz.
