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.

Your pet's dietary needs vary by activity level, metabolic rate, age, breed and other variables. It is important that you observe your pet closely & increase or reduce food quantity as needed for a healthy weight. Here, we apply the bodyweight percentage rule as a general guide which estimates the feeding amounts based on the weight of your pet.

Adult dogs
2% to 3% of current weight or ideal body weight

Puppies
2 - 4 months = 8% to 10% of current body weight
4 - 6 months = 6% to 8% of current body weight
6 - 8 months = 4% to 6% of current body weight
8 - 12 months = 3% to 4% of current body weight

How to prepare
1. Measure the amount of food needed and pour food into your pet's bowl.
2. Rehydrate food by adding warm water, low-sodium bone broth, raw goat milk, or kefir on top of the food to aid digestion. Wait about 5 mins for food to absorb liquid before serving. If you are feeding freeze-dried food as your pet's main diet, it is vital to rehydrate the food before feeding them. Rehydrating is not required if you use freeze-dried pet food as occasional treats.

Safe Handling
Treat raw pet food with the same care as handling raw meat. Always wash everything that comes in contact with raw meat. Keep food in a cool place away from direct light. Unopened bags are good for up to 2 years. Opened bags should be used within 30 days.
