Feeding solely freeze-dried food to pets over 40 lb. can be expensive. That\\\\\\\'s why we suggest using our products as a topper or mixer with kibble if your dog is over 40 lb. This will dramatically increase the nutrition of the meal. We suggest 2-3 patties a day as a topper or mixer for dogs over 40 lb.

Transition is the most essential element of a healthy and safe change from dry kibble or canned wet food to a freeze-dried diet. We recommend making this transition slowly. Allow a minimum of one week for your pet’s digestive system to properly adjust from a highly processed diet to a new diet of human-grade freeze-dried foods.
Note: Quick changes in diet sometimes can lead to digestive Introduce any new food slowly by mixing with the current diet between the first 7-10 days, while increasing the amount of Purpose Chicken & Veggie, decreasing the amount of the old diet. Following the table above is recommended.
