Our take on the Instinct Freeze-Dried Adult Dry Dog Food 3 oz

Instinct Freeze-Dried Raw is a grain-free adult dog food made from lamb, lamb liver, carrots, apples and peas, sold in a small 3 oz bag. It is raw food with the moisture removed, so it keeps on a shelf without refrigeration and rehydrates with warm water. Owners use it as a complete meal, a topper or a training treat. Against kibble rivals it is high in meat and low in filler, but the bag is small and the pieces are rich, so it suits small dogs or mixed feeding better than a large dog eating it alone.

Questions and answers

Is this a complete meal or a topper?
It is formulated as a complete adult dog food, so it can be fed alone. Many owners use it as a topper or treat instead.
How do I prepare it?
Crumble the pieces and add warm water to rehydrate. It can also be fed dry as a treat.
Is it grain-free?
Yes. It contains no corn, wheat or soy; the bulk comes from lamb, liver, peas, carrots and apples.
Does it need refrigeration?
No, the bag is shelf-stable until opened. Store leftovers sealed in a cool, dry place.
Is it suitable for large dogs?
It can be, but the 3 oz bag is small for a large dog eating it as a full meal. Most large-dog owners use it as a topper.
Is raw food safe for my dog?
Freeze-drying kills many bacteria, but handle it like raw meat: wash hands, bowls and surfaces after serving.
