All pets have anti-aged since top dressing food with crumbles of these.

PEGGY-SUE GETS 1/2 WITH OTHER FOOD FOR HER A.M. MEAL AND THE SAME FOR HER P.M. MEAL. SHE LOVES IT. I RECENTLY CHANGED HER FROM HARD DOG FOOD TO THIS HEALTHY WAY OF EATING. I THOUGHT MY VET. WAS GIVING ME THE BEST FOOD FOR HER. NOW I FEEL BETTER THAT SHE IS GETTING THE BEST AND HOPEFULLY SHE WILL BE HEALTHY HER WHOLE LIFE. SHE IS 2 YRS OLD.

I've been feeding this in addition to another premium brand food to my Scottie and my son's Lab-mix. It smells great when I mix it and both dogs eat it with gusto. My son just took his dog on 270+ mile Appalachian Trail adventure and supplimented with larger amounts this food as an increase in caloric intake for her. It was lighter in weight for her to carry in her backpack. She came home from her adventure very fit and healthy with a wonderfully shiney coat.

Great product and less mess than canned food - you don't have to do anything but crumble it onto the dry food kibble. My dogs LOVE it better than any canned variety.
from Florida on 4/7/2008
WOW...my cats are crazy for this. Even my finicky one who likes nothing...this is awesome..a bit on the expensive side but worth it for the one who is so hard to please.

Ernie, my senior cockerspaniel's hearing, coat, "poops", & energy have all improved. Yes, even his hearing. He's always had (excuse me)loose bowl movements. I've been feeding him and his 3 year old companion cocker/mix, Edith, a mixture of Honest Kitchen Embark, Freeze dried Venison and grain-free kibble all mixed with organic free range chicken broth. While she has always been and remains young & healthy, it's like he has a new lease on life at 11 yrs old. Everyone comments on the change. I recommend both products without hesitation.

i use it as a treat every day for my cat and also my dogs..they love it
from Atlanta, Ga on 11/27/2007
A family member of mine gave me this product because her cat didn't like it. Not because it's a bad product, but because her kitty is a tad spoiled. In fact, when I mixed one of these pellets with water then added their regular dried food, they absolutely LOVED it! I wouldn't mind spending the money on this item. It's a great product. Everything that's in it is benefitial and nutritious for my kitties. We're getting a puppy soon and I wouldn't hesitate to feed this to it as well!
from Seattle, Wa on 10/15/2007
We have four breeds of dogs and while there has been some experimenting with them to find which dried dog kibble each likes, this freeze dried meat was an immediate hit with all of them. Also any family member that brings their dog over loves this product. The ony fault is that the package does not give any directions on how to serve it to your dog. I finally grated it on top of their kibble.
from San Antonio on 10/12/2007
We use the freeze dried nuggets (1/2 of one per day) mixed into Teddy's dried food (Orijen...best/healthiest dried food I've found)...he loves them!!! They are also perfect if you are going out for the day/travelling/etc, they pack very well. Plus, Teddy (who is a very picky eater) loves it!!!!

FANCY IS MY 7 YEAR OLD POODLE AND WEIGHS ABOUT 13 LBS. SHE HAS BEEN ON INDIGESTION DIETS FROM THE VET FOR YEARS AND STILL I HAD TO GIVE HER TAGAMENT TO EASE HER TUMMY PROBLEMS. SHE HAD NO ENERGY AND HER TUMMY WAS ALWAYS BLOATED. I GIVE HER THE CHICKEN/TURKEY AND THE VENISON FREEZE DRIED FOOD AND I CHANGED HER FOOD TO INNOVA SMALL BITES AND EVO CANNED. I GIVE HER THE FREEZE DRIED FIRST THING IN THE MORNING AND AGAIN IN THE LATE AFTERNOON. SHE IS A NEW DOG.
from Merritt Island, FL on 9/20/2007
My 2 dogs were eager to eat once I opened the bag. The smell must have been tantalizing.
I had been cooking chicken & veg's to add to their food, but found that they would eat without hesitation when I added the freeze-dried meat to their canned food diet. This saves me a tremendous amount of time and meal prep is done in a flash.
from Annapolis, MD on 9/11/2007
This first made a hit with a friend's cats and dogs; it took a couple tries with my cats, who prefer it reconstituted, but they love it now. Extremely convenient for feeding while keeping a healthy diet for my cats. Also produces less recycling waste than cans of grain-free food.
from San Diego, CA on 9/3/2007
This product is great! Easy to serve. Serve somtimes as a meal and sometimes as an added treat to mix with dry food.
from Beaumont, Tx on 8/31/2007
My puppy, Freddie, loves it, but makes a mess in his exuberance. It is great when I need to leave him at the kennel or travel as I don't have to worry about keeping raw food fresh.
from San Diego on 8/13/2007
I can feed this to both my cat and dog. They absolutely love this stuff!!!
from Weatherford, Tx. on 8/10/2007
My dog will not eat her food unless I crumble Nature's Variety Freeze Dried food on top of it. Sometimes she will pick out the Nature's Variety and leave her regular food.
from colorado springs, colorado on 8/8/2007
My dogs love the freeze dried foods. I supplement their kibble with it. It was very convenient when they went to the kennel last week. Very compact and easy to carry and store.
from Baton Rouge, LA on 8/7/2007
I have two dogs, one is a puppy and one is an adult. I was looking for a food that both could eat without having to purchase two different foods. I compared all the ingrediants and the nutritional stats of many, many foods. This one beat them all. And they absolutly love it!! I have never found a food that my picky dogs eat better. I will never change!!
from Oklahoma on 8/4/2007
My dogs are crazy for this - to them, it is better than a treat - I feed each, one on top of their regular dog food (Wellness), then the 8 mo old puppy gets another one on top of his 2nd meal at 5p plus the other 3 get an extra one by itself in the evening.
from Loudon, NH on 8/3/2007
I have two Minature American Eskimos. They have always been very picky about what they eat and one has a sensitive stomach and food allergies. Since I started feeding them Nature valley freeze dried food they can't wait for me to put it down for them, and the one with the allegies hasn't had any problems.
from San Ramon, CA on 7/20/2007
I actually bought this for my new kitten to mix into his diet. He seems to really enjoy this -- I have processed it into a powder and re-hydrate it with some water. (he does not seem to be too keen on it dry out of the bag) If I were to have another dog, I'm sure this would be a staple in his/her diet, and it will also continue to be a supplement in my kitten/cat's diet -- a great nutritional and natural food at a pretty good value.

I feed my min. American Eskimo dog, Zoe, a rotation of canned, rolled (Nature's Balance), Nature's Variety freeze-dried and "home-made" raw food diet. Based her reaction, Nature's Variety freeze dried foods are her favorite! She's never, and I mean literally, never been anything but charged to eat it. I can't say that about any of the others - even my own raw food recipes. She's tried all the varieties and goes nuts for each of them.

My dogs fall over each other for this product. My youngest saluki, 3, will bring me the whole bag to open for him. Fabulous as a treat and great for travel - convenience is key.

from Jackson, MS on 1/29/2007
This is good when you go on long trips or as a treat. My puppy likes it without water as it's a crunchy treat for her. I don't give it to her as a staple diet though, I mix it with her kibble.

I have a Snowshoe cat with digestive issues who previously vomited other brands and is not at all with this food! He is also EXTREMELY picky but he absolutely loves the stuff. Seeing is believing!

I add glyco flex III for our dog with joint problems. I like the portability of the freeze dried as it is next best to feeding raw (which we tried, and our dog loved but it was impossible to find sources in our area that were practical to feed). I show our dog in obedience and rally, and the food is small and easy to transport, keeps well, and is always eaten. I feed twice a day.
