Steve's Real Food Freeze-Dried Raw Dog Food, White Fish Recipe

Steve’s Real Food freeze-dried whitefish food is formulated with Pacific Cod, Pollock, Rockfish, and Salmon that are sustainably sourced in North Pacific waters. White fish is considered a novel protein, making this fish-based dog food a good choice for pets with food intolerances to other proteins. It’s a BARF formulation composed of 80% meat/organ/bone, 15% produce, and 5% value-added ingredients such as New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel, coconut oil, and raw goat milk. White Fish is complete, balanced for all life stages, and appropriate for dogs and cats.

Consider our freeze-dried recipe for the following reasons:

• Nutrient Rich: White fish are naturally high in Omega 3’s, B6, B12, and selenium which helps support heart health, cognitive function, and our senior pets.

• Weight Management: Whitefish are a suitable option for pets requiring a low-fat diet. The protein-rich, low-fat nature of these fish can support weight management in overweight pets.

• Rich in Nutrients: Turkey is packed with essential nutrients such as vitamins B3 (niacin), B6, and B12, which support energy metabolism, brain function, and overall vitality.

• Heart and Joint Health: The Omega-3 fatty acids in fish support joint health, benefiting dogs and cats with arthritis or joint issues. Omega-3s also promote cardiovascular health by helping to maintain proper blood pressure.

• Brain Function: DHA, found in abundance in these fish, is known to enhance cognitive function and may be particularly beneficial for senior pets.

Ingredient Sourcing:

Steve's fish is sustainably sourced from the Pacific Ocean. Like commercial-grade sushi, the whitefish is flash frozen at -40C to ensure parasites are eliminated. The produce is sourced from the Pacific Northwest, and goat milk comes from a family farm in Gaston, Oregon. Steve’s Real Food is committed to working with family farms that share our belief in sustainable farming free from added hormones, antibiotics, GMOs, or pesticides.

Feeding Guide:

If you are transitioning to raw, we suggest transitioning over a 1-2 week period. Check out our transitioning guide here for more information and tips for switching over your pets.

Portion

• Start with a clean, airtight container and portion your pet’s daily feeding amount into it. If feeding multiple times a day, divide the recommended daily feeding amount by number of feedings per day.

Rehydrate

• Add ¾ cup of warm water per every 1 cup of food. Stir to ensure even hydration. Let the liquid absorb into the food for a minimum of 10 minutes.

Serve

• Once fully rehydrated, serve it to your pet on a clean dish. Thoroughly wash your hands and sanitize all areas that come into contact with the raw food to promote a safe feeding environment.

How Much to Feed

Each four-legged friend will metabolize food differently based on their activity level, breed, age, etc. Use our feeding calculator as a starting point for your pet, and adjust the feeding amount as necessary to help your pet achieve an ideal body weight.

Safe Handling Raw Pet Food

Treat raw pet food with the same care as handling raw meat for your consumption. Always wash your hands, pet bowls, and any surfaces that come into contact with the raw food.
