Steve’s Real Food chicken dog food recipe uses organic chicken, conveniently freeze-dried to retain the benefits of raw feeding. This raw chicken dog food is high in manganese and magnesium, which are crucial for ligament health, and has a mid-range fat and protein profile, making it a good option for high-energy dogs. Steve’s uses the B.A.R.F. formulation, making our meat-to-produce ratio at 80%/20%. It is packed with functional foods that provide protein and all the essential vitamins and minerals that help promote strong bones and support healthy organ function. Our freeze-dried chicken recipe is complete and balanced for all stages of life and can be fed to dogs and cats.
Consider our freeze-dried chicken raw recipe for the following reasons:
- Supports Joint Health: Our pet food recipe with chicken is high in manganese and magnesium, which are crucial for ligament health.
- Great Energy Source: Chicken has a mid-range fat and protein profile, making it a good option for high-energy dogs.
- Complete Amino Acid Profile: Chicken contains all nine amino acids needed from food, making it a complete protein.
- Variety in Diet: Feeding your pet a variety of protein sources, including chicken, can help prevent food allergies or sensitivities from developing due to repeated exposure to a single protein.
- Convenient Bite-Sized Nuggets: Nuggets are shaped into tater-tot-sized pieces that are easy to scoop, and excellent at quickly rehydrating.

100% Whole Food Ingredients with a Purpose: Steve’s Real Food believes every ingredient in your pet’s food should serve a purpose to promote optimal health. We craft our carefully curated raw pet food recipes using high-quality, whole-food ingredients to give your furry friend the essential nutrients they need for a vibrant and healthy life.
Ingredient Sourcing: Our chicken comes from a family-owned farm in the northwest. The chickens roam freely. You can find them happily soaking up the sunshine, taking dust baths in the fields, and returning to the spacious indoor area to roost at night. They are vegetarian, fed a biologically appropriate diet, provided fresh water, and provided enrichment activities. The produce is sourced from the Pacific Northwest, and our 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, and pesticides.

Feeding Guidelines
How to Feed Our Freeze-Dried Raw Food for Dogs and Cats
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.
- Scoop: Use a measuring cup to scoop your pet’s portion for the meal, and place the food in a clean dish.
- 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 5-10 mins.
- Serve: Once the freeze-dried food has re-hydrated and reached the desired texture (usually a porridge-like consistency), serve it to your pet in a clean food dish.
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.
Food Storage Instructions
Keep the bag sealed and away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid storing freeze-dried pet food in areas with extreme temperature fluctuations, such as garages or sheds. Freeze-dried food is sensitive to moisture. Ensure the storage area has low humidity levels to prevent the food from becoming soggy or molding. While freeze-dried dog food has a longer shelf life than other pet foods, it’s essential to use it within a reasonable timeframe. Follow the “best by” or “use by” date on the packaging as a guideline.
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.
