Ingredient Transparency

The first five ingredients - chicken (source of methionine, glucosamine, and chondroitin sulfate), chicken liver, vegetable glycerin, flaxseed meal, and New Zealand green mussel - form a protein-dense foundation. Cage-free chicken is sourced from New Zealand farms without added antibiotics. Chicken liver contributes concentrated micronutrients including vitamin A, B vitamins, and iron. The formula contains no artificial additives and is preserved naturally with mixed tocopherols, citric acid, and rosemary extract. Ingredients are grown without bioengineering.

Nutritional Positioning

Crude Protein (Min): 38% - Crude Fat (Min): 24% - Crude Fiber (Max): 3.5% - Moisture (Max): 19.5%. This formula is AAFCO-compliant and formulated as a 100% complete and balanced diet for all life stages, including growth. Added taurine supports cardiovascular function. Chelated minerals are included for superior absorption. A complete vitamin profile ensures balanced daily nutrition.

Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience

The air-drying process produces a moist, chunky texture that closely resembles real meat - distinct from traditional dry kibble. Dogs that prefer raw or fresh-style feeding typically find this format highly palatable. No preparation is required; simply pour and serve. Palatability may vary by individual dog preference, but the high meat content and natural flavor profile make this a strong option for picky eaters or dogs transitioning from raw diets.

Feeding Guidance and Portion Use

Use the manufacturer's feeding chart as a starting point based on your dog's weight. Puppies and pregnant or nursing females should receive approximately double the adult amount, divided into 2-3 feedings per day. When used as a mixer or topper, reduce your dog's current diet proportionally - start with 1/4 the daily recommended amount of RawTernative and 3/4 of the usual diet. Transition gradually over 7-10 days when switching from another food.

Safety, Storage, and Handling

Store in a cool, dry place. Seal the bag tightly after each use. Always provide fresh, clean drinking water alongside meals. Consult your veterinarian for feeding recommendations specific to your dog's health, weight, and activity level.
