Review: Great option for a small senior dog with chicken allergies - 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!
Review: Dog loves it - Dog loves this food. Can only get when on sale though as it is pricey.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is raw freeze-dried food safe for my pet?**
A: Absolutely. Each and every Vital Essentials product is made in our very own facility located in Wisconsin. Our manufacturing facility proudly carries the Global Food Safety Initiative FSC22000 Certification and is EU and Gluten-Free certified.

**Q: Why should I wash my hands after handling raw freeze dried food?**
A: The FDA recommends washing your hands after handing any raw food, including freeze-dried pet foods.

**Q: Is it normal for raw freeze dried food to have an aroma?**
A: Yes! Since our foods are made with high levels of meat, you can expect the food to have a meaty aroma. Some proteins have a more noticeable aroma than others.

**Q: What if my pet has tummy issues after eating raw freeze dried food?**
A: Any change in diet comes with a chance of digestive upset. This is why we recommend a slow transition over the course of 5-7 days when changing your pet's food! This helps give your dog or cat plenty of time to adjust to his or her new diet.

**Q: What if my pet doesn't like his new food or treat?**
A: We're confident that your pet will LOVE Vital Essentials, but all animals have preferences! If the first product you try isn't a hit with your dog or cat, we offer a wide variety of proteins and textures that we're sure will be a great fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great option for a small senior dog with chicken allergies
*by H***Y on October 28, 2025*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dog loves it
*by L***M on January 9, 2026*

Dog loves this food. Can only get when on sale though as it is pricey.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Dog’s Favorite - Versatile, Crunchy, and High Quality
*by N***L on July 8, 2025*

I’m subscribed to this product because my dog absolutely loves it. The taste is clearly a hit - he gets excited whether I serve it as a treat, mix it with kibble, use it as a meal topper for human-grade food, or feed it as a full meal. The nib size is the perfect size, bigger than traditional kibble but manageable, and the texture is crunchy but not too hard - not as hard as kibble, which is great for older dogs or smaller breeds. The food quality is excellent, and I feel good knowing it supports his health with clean, raw ingredients. Though it’s marketed for dogs, I’ve seen many mention that cats love it too. The versatility, high-quality ingredients, and consistent freshness make this a staple in our home.
