Our take on the Instinct Raw Boost Whole Grain Kibble Freeze-Dried Raw 3.5 lbs

Instinct Raw Boost Whole Grain is a dry dog food that mixes whole-grain kibble with pieces of freeze-dried raw meat. It is built around salmon and rice, with peas and added vitamins B and E, and it sits between plain kibble and a fully raw diet. Owners pick it for the raw pieces and the whole-grain formula, though the bag is small and the raw bits vary in amount. It suits people who want some raw feeding without switching to a full raw or frozen diet.

Questions and answers

Is this a complete food or a topper?
It is a complete dry food, not a topper. The freeze-dried raw pieces are mixed into the kibble, so you can feed it as the whole meal.
Is it grain-free?
No. This is the whole-grain version, made with rice. Instinct also sells grain-free Raw Boost formulas if your dog needs one.
How long does a 3.5 lb bag last?
It depends on your dog's size. A small dog gets several weeks from it, while a medium or large dog will go through it quickly.
Do I need to transition slowly?
Yes. Mix it with your dog's current food over about a week, increasing the share of the new food, to avoid digestive upset.
What is the main protein?
Salmon, with rice and peas. It also includes added vitamin B and vitamin E.
Is it suitable for puppies?
Check the label for the life-stage statement. Instinct sells separate puppy formulas, and this one is aimed at adult dogs.
