Dogs didn't evolve to eat processed kibble — they evolved as scavenging carnivores built for whole muscle, organ, and bone. This entrée mirrors that: free-range turkey raised without antibiotics or artificial growth promotants on Midwest family farms, ground with bone, gizzard, liver, and heart, then batched with organic vegetables and coconut oil in a hyper-clean facility in Cannon Falls, Minnesota. Nothing about it is designed for a shelf — it's designed for a dog.

  • Complete, species-appropriate raw meals for feeding whole, mixing into a kibble transition, or topping over an existing diet — the choice is yours as long as the ratio makes sense for your dog.
  • Whole-prey balance: turkey gizzard, liver, and heart deliver organ nutrition most commercial diets skip entirely, while organic coconut oil supplies MCTs and lauric acid.
  • Formulated to AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, including large-breed growth (adult dogs 70 lbs and up) — one formula covers puppy through senior.

Frozen Raw Turkey Entree for Dogs - a complete raw dog food, 8 oz. patties, packed 18 lb. per bulk box.

Ground turkey (bone included) forms the base, built out with turkey gizzard, liver, and heart for the organ nutrition a whole-prey diet is supposed to include. Organic spinach, yams, celery, cranberries, flaxseed, kelp, and coconut oil round out the fiber, mineral, antioxidant, and MCT profile. The turkey itself comes from free-range birds raised without antibiotics or artificial growth promotants on Midwest family farms - then every batch is mixed and formed in small custom runs at the company's own facility in Cannon Falls, Minnesota, rather than a co-packer.

Guaranteed analysis: 14% crude protein (min), 7% crude fat (min), 1% crude fiber (max), 74% moisture (max) - 1,338 kcal/kg, or 76 kcal per 2 oz. patty. This entree is formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, including growth of large-size dogs expected to reach 70 lbs or more as adults, so one formula works across a dog's whole life. This recipe is grain-free and contains no fillers or synthetic preservatives, making it a fit for owners following a prey-model or biologically-appropriate raw (BARF) feeding approach for their dogs.

Thaw patties in the refrigerator and serve as a complete meal, or use the brand's feeding calculator to set a baseline portion based on your dog's weight and how much of their diet is raw. Many owners transition gradually, mixing patties in with an existing kibble ratio before moving to fully raw.

Dog owners feeding this entree describe visible changes in coat, energy, and digestion, along with confidence that each 8 oz. patty is a nutritionally complete meal on its own - not just a topper.

Common Questions

How is this different from a raw diet you'd make yourself with ground turkey from the grocery store?
Plain ground turkey from a grocery store is muscle meat only — it's missing the organ balance (liver, heart, gizzard) and the calcium-phosphorus ratio that bone provides, both of which a dog needs for a nutritionally complete diet. This entrée is formulated to meet AAFCO's complete-and-balanced nutrient profiles for all life stages, so it doesn't require you to add supplements or balance multiple cuts yourself. It also uses free-range turkey raised without antibiotics or artificial growth promotants, which most retail ground turkey doesn't specify.

Why does the ingredient list include gizzard, liver, and heart along with muscle meat?
Organ meats carry nutrients that muscle meat alone doesn't provide at meaningful levels — liver is dense in vitamin A, copper, and B vitamins; heart is a rich source of taurine and CoQ10; gizzard adds additional protein and minerals with very little fat. Wild canines historically consumed the whole animal, organs included, which is the basis for whole-prey-style raw feeding. Skipping organs is one of the most common gaps in homemade raw diets.

Is this appropriate for a large-breed puppy, or only adult dogs?
Yes — this entrée is formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, including growth of large-size dogs expected to reach 70 lbs or more as adults. That's a specific, more rigorous standard than a general 'all life stages' claim, since large-breed puppies have tighter calcium and phosphorus requirements to support healthy joint and skeletal development.

What role does the organic coconut oil play nutritionally?
Organic coconut oil contributes medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and lauric acid. MCTs are metabolized differently than long-chain fats — they're absorbed directly and used more readily for energy rather than stored — and lauric acid has documented antimicrobial properties. It's included here as a functional fat alongside the organic vegetables, not just a filler oil.

How do I transition my dog from kibble to this raw entrée?
Most owners start by mixing a small percentage of raw patty into the existing kibble ratio (commonly starting around 10-20%) and gradually increasing over one to two weeks while watching stool quality. The brand's feeding calculator lets you enter your dog's weight and the percentage of their diet you want to be raw to get a baseline daily amount. Going slowly reduces the chance of digestive upset during the switch.

Does this contain grain, corn, or soy?
No — the ingredient list is built from turkey, turkey organs, organic vegetables, organic flaxseed, organic coconut oil, organic kelp, sea salt, inulin from chicory, and chelated mineral and vitamin supplements. There is no corn, soy, wheat, or other grain filler in the formula.

How should I store and serve the patties?
Keep the box frozen until you're ready to use it. Thaw individual 8 oz. patties in the refrigerator (not at room temperature) and serve within a few days of thawing. Each patty is portioned as a standalone serving, which makes it straightforward to measure a daily amount using your dog's weight and the feeding calculator.
