AAFCO: Open Farm Grass-Fed Beef Freeze Dried Raw Recipe is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages (per manufacturer). Humanely Raised Beef is the first ingredient.

This freeze dried raw recipe opens its ingredient panel with humanely raised beef, followed by beef hearts, beef liver and beef kidneys, organ meats that give the recipe a higher fat guarantee than the brand's dry kibbles. Open Farm formulates the recipe to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages and states it is suitable for all puppies. Because the freeze drying process removes water rather than cooking the meat, the guaranteed moisture ceiling sits at 5 percent, far below the brand's dry kibble or wet formulas. The manufacturer sells this recipe in 3.5, 13.5, 22 and 31.5 ounce bags, intended to be fed as a complete meal or crumbled as a topper. Organic butternut squash, ground beef bone and organic carrots round out the early ingredient list. Sniff and Shift makes single ingredient freeze dried treats, which are treats rather than meals, and they pair with any complete diet on this list. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top.
