Storage
Will last years if stored correctly. Do not refrigerate. Store in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight.
Feeding guide
Rehydrate the food before consumption by using 2-3 times the amount of warm water compared to the amount of the freeze dried food. A simple starting point when feeding freeze dry to raw is to feed 1/3 to 1/4 of the amount of freeze dry compared to raw before the water is added. 50lb dog at 3% would get 1.5lb of raw or at most 8 oz of freeze dry without water added daily.

Nutritional: declared analysis vs reference ranges
How the declared analysis compares with FEDIAF reference ranges for adult dogs. The label prints as-fed values; we convert to a dry-matter basis before scoring, and the bands are dry-matter ranges. Scores rise to 100 at the band midpoint: the reference is adequacy, not maximisation. Nutrients with a published upper limit taper again above it; fat is policed through calorie density rather than a direct penalty.
Guaranteed-analysis FEDIAF score: crude minimums and maximums are bounds, not typical values; moisture (a maximum) uses the processing median where available; experimental US score.
| Nutrient | As fed (label) | Dry matter (scored) | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein | 55 | 56.7 (band 18 to 40%) | 100 |
| Fat | 36 | 37.1 (band 5.5 to 20%) | 100 |
| Fibre | 3 | 3.1 (band 0.5 to 5%) | 100 |
| Energy (kcal/100g) | 491.5 | 506.7 | 50 |
Scored over 4 declared nutrients (combined weight 60); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.
Portion-control flag: 491.5 kcal/100g as fed with fat at 37.1% dry matter, above the reference band. High-energy foods need smaller portions.
Medium confidence: the full five-part analysis is on file; where moisture was not declared it was estimated from the food type.
This measures agreement with published reference ranges, not suitability for an individual dog. For medical conditions, follow veterinary guidance.
Transparency: what the label discloses
How much the manufacturer discloses, measured against the FEDIAF Code of Good Labelling Practice and Regulation 767/2009. Mandatory items dominate the weighting.
| Item | Points |
|---|---|
| Ingredient list on the label (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Printed percentages on the label (100% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 20/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) | 15/15 |
| Additives declared (mandatory) - not on file | 0/10 |
| Energy value declared (voluntary) | 5/5 |
| Complete/complementary designation (mandatory) | 5/5 |
| Feeding guidance given (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Manufacturer identity and address (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Country of manufacture stated (voluntary) | 10/10 |
| Batch and date labelling (mandatory) - not on file | 0/5 |
Capped at 60: mandatory items missing (Additives declared, Batch and date labelling).
Safety: recall history
Recall and safety-notice history, time-decayed. This dimension is shown alongside the score and never feeds the headline number.
No recalls recorded in our database.
Evidence: what the brand claims, and what supports it
The claims made on the pack and product page, checked against the declared label. We record claims as stated; "consistent" means our stored label data supports the claim, "contradicted" means it conflicts with it. Functional claims are recorded but never scored.
