Our Big Dog Freeze Dried Bites are delicious bites of raw healthy goodness using the same high quality recipes as the Big Dog raw diet range, only in smaller serve sizes and freeze dried for all the health benefits of raw nutrition with the convenience of dry food!
Available in 5 flavours, our Freeze Dried Bites can be used for convenience while travelling, or integrated into their everyday diet as healthy treats and toppers.
The convenience of bite-sized, freeze dried portions makes integrating raw healthy nutrition into your pets diet easier than ever before. Freeze drying is the best way to snap lock in all of the nutrients found in fresh raw food by quickly freezing the product, removing the moisture whilst locking in all of the micronutrients in the food. This allows nutrients to survive until rehydrated by eating or adding some room-temperature water and rehydrating into raw unprocessed healthy food! Just remember when not rehydrating freeze-dried food to have plenty of fresh drinking water available for your dog.
Some of the ways to integrate Big Dog Freeze Dried Bites into your dogs' diet are as healthy training treats, meal toppers, great for smaller eaters, use with mental stimulation toys and some slow feeding devices as well as for healthy gap feeding. The convenience of healthy raw food, freeze dried makes our Bites perfect for travel with no need to refrigerate or freeze!
Store Big Dog Little Bites in a cool dry place and reseal bag after each use to maintain freshness and be sure to use the product by the expiration date. As with all meat items, standard safe hygienic practices should be followed at all times to avoid deterioration and contamination. Ensure all utensils, work areas and hands are thoroughly washed with hot soapy water after being in contact with raw food.
Be sure to keep raw food portions frozen until ready for thawing.
Place required portions of frozen raw food in the fridge and allow time for defrosting. If required sooner, place in hot water to thaw but not cook.
Keep thawed patties in the fridge for no longer than 48 hours and do not cook as our recipes contain bone.
Thoroughly wash all utensils, work areas and hands with warm soapy water after contacting raw food.
