Rehydrate food with warm water, Bone Broth, or Raw Goat Milk to ensure optimum nutrient absorption. We recommend one tablespoon of liquid for every nugget served. Use stainless steel bowls when feeding any product. Other materials, such as plastic and porcelain, are porous and can trap germs over time.
Ready to go all in? Simply start small and gradually increase the amount each day.
Try it as a topper to your dog’s current food to easily introduce the powerful benefits of raw nutrition.
Minimally processed recipes are highly digestible and better support a healthy gut compared to foods cooked at high heat.
I have been using Primal now for 6 years. I have small Yorkies and they are all healthy and happy. One is 12 1/2, one is 8, and one is 3. Even after breaking the nuggets apart really small (I broke them apart for about 5-10 minutes with a knife) and soaking them for longer than usual, my dog choked on these. I've ordered before and they have never been this hard or leathery. Multiple pieces had gotten stuck together in her throat. As Epic grew up, he developed severe GI allergies to many many ingredients. He was doing vagal syncopes, anemic and lethargic. We were at a loss! $8,000 vet bills accumulated.... changed vets 4 times within a year..... and when we finally found our amazing vet, she helped us find a good raw brand with limited ingredient. Who was the perfect fit? Primal! I can say Primal saved my best friend! It was the only brand I could find venison or pork (the only 2 proteins he could have per his allergy test) that had the most limited ingredients. Thank you!!! Epic felt so much better so soon after starting eating Primal. Fantastic!!!! Thank you! I cannot be a happier dog mom! The freeze dried nuggets make it so simple for traveling, boarding, treats, add ons.... Thank you again! Epic loves it and I feel relieved! Hi @epic_the_boxy, Thank you so much for taking the time to review our Canine Freeze Dried Venison Nuggets and for sharing those sweet photos of Epic with us. We are thrilled to hear that your beloved pup is thriving on our products! We absolutely adore hearing success stories like this, as this is precisely why we are so dedicated to creating high-quality pet food. We hope that you and Epic have a fantastic week ahead! Kona just had his first taste of Primal Freeze-Dried Nuggets, Venison Formula, and let's just say it was *love at first bite*! Perfect for travel and packs well because the venison nuggets are a bit denser. Just crumble, add water, and voilà gourmet meal on the go. It's four paws up from Kona! Hi Kona, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience (and this precious photo!) with us! We are so happy to hear that our Canine Freeze-Dried Venison Nuggets have been working so well for Kona. We love stories like this, as this is exactly why we do what we do and put so much work into making quality pet food. We wish you and your sweet pup a wonderful week ahead! this has helped our 12 year old so much during and after a bout with yeast overgrowth. We avoid poultry and our integrative veterinarian suggested Venison as a top selection for her. It's been great and she re-grew a healthy coat. She eats 3 of these a day along with gently cooked bison, yogurt and fish products. Highly recommend for sensitive skin/allergic dogs or gut issues, from our experience.
