Vital Essentials® Freeze-Dried Raw Turkey Entree & Mixer Dog Food Crunchy Mini Nibs, 14 oz

I transitioned my 10 year old Chihuahua to a fully raw diet for health and behavioral reasons (as directed by our vet) and he LOVES this food. This is a wonderful option for smaller dogs who are not able to eat chicken. It does tend to be a more expensive food compared to some of the other air-dried options but this one has been more popular with my dog than the others. There is no smell to it (woo hoo!), he loves the taste, his health overall has gotten better, and he is able to chew these with no problem (they are small and fairly soft). Would recommend!

I recently tried the Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Raw Dog Food in the Turkey Mini Nibs Entree flavor, and overall, it has left a positive impression on both me and my furry friend. Here are a few reasons why I'm giving it a solid 4 stars: First and foremost, the freeze-dried raw aspect of this dog food is a big win. It retains the nutritional value of the ingredients while providing a convenient and mess-free feeding experience. The mini nibs format makes portion control easy, and the 14 oz size is reasonable for the price. My dog seems to absolutely love the Turkey flavor. The fact that it's made with real, high-quality ingredients is evident in how eagerly my dog dives into his bowl. Knowing that he's getting a wholesome and protein-packed meal is a major plus. The convenience factor is a game-changer. As a busy pet owner, I appreciate the ease of preparation – simply scoop, add water, and watch the food rehydrate. It's a time-saving solution that doesn't compromise on the quality of nutrition. The 14 oz packaging is a good size for a trial or for those with smaller dogs. However, for owners with larger breeds, it might be more suitable as a supplemental or occasional treat rather than a primary meal source. While the price point is slightly higher than some traditional dog foods, the quality of the ingredients justifies the cost. It's an investment in your pet's health, and the benefits of a raw diet are well-reflected in the vitality and energy my dog exhibits. In conclusion, the Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Raw Dog Food in Turkey Mini Nibs Entree is a top-notch option for pet owners looking to provide a nutritionally rich and tasty meal for their dogs. It's convenient, well-received by pets, and offers a step towards a healthier diet. I highly recommend it for dog owners who prioritize the well-being of their furry companions.

My dog found these more enticing than the chicken flavor and it’s just as easy on his sensitive stomach! The pieces are also sized really consistently which make them perfect for training.

My small poodles like this Freeze-Dried Raw Turkey Meal. They are pretty spoiled with good human food, so it means this product has a good taste. One of my dogs only 6 pounds and she had to have surgery in her mouth, so I usually soak this food for few minutes before to give it to my dog.

We have a 15 year old chihuahua and recently got a new heeler puppy, yes we’re crazy lol. The new puppy is of course always hungry due to how much energy she burns. Well we wanted to get her off to a healthier start and get our older chihuahua back to being more energetic, yes knowing he is an old man lol. We are now 6 months into this food topper, we mix with Wild Red (Red Meat Blend) and have noticed a significant change in both dogs. Coats are healthier, more energy, and overall healthier. We were feeding our puppy twice a day, once in AM and once at PM. When we switched over, a few days in, she wouldn’t really eat in the morning. We changed to once at night and now she eats all of her food! Dogs need a high protein diet and high protein means being more full so we know it’s great food for both of them. Our senior dog gets excited about dinner now! Highly recommend with no nasty byproducts!
