Directions for Use
- Serve the Nuggets: Take the recommended number of nuggets and crumble them over your dog’s bowl before serving.
- Add Liquid if Needed: For a softer meal, mix in 1 tablespoon of warm water, bone broth, or raw goat milk for each nugget. Let the nuggets soak briefly before feeding.
- Transition Gradually: Start with small amounts and gradually increase each day when switching your dog to a full raw meal.
- Use Stainless Steel Bowls: Serve in stainless steel bowls, since plastic and porcelain are porous and can trap germs over time.
Additional Information
Precautions
- Before Rehydrating: Freeze-dried nuggets are shelf-stable, so store them in a cool place until you are ready to rehydrate.
- After Rehydrating: Once rehydrated, keep unused portions refrigerated and feed within five days to maintain optimum freshness.
- Consult Your Veterinarian: Talk to your veterinarian before changing your dog's diet, especially if your dog has a diagnosed medical condition.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is Primal Freeze-Dried Raw Nuggets Beef Recipe?
Ans: It is a raw dog food made with grass-fed beef raised without steroids or added hormones, combined with organic produce and whole food ingredients, then freeze-dried and minimally processed to preserve nutrients, and it can be served as a full meal, topper, or mix-in.
Q2: Can I feed the nuggets dry?
Ans: Yes, the nuggets can be fed dry, but Primal recommends rehydrating them with warm water, bone broth, or raw goat milk. Rehydrating helps ensure optimum nutrient absorption, so one tablespoon of liquid per nugget is the suggested amount.
Q3: How do I prepare the nuggets for my dog?
Ans: Break the recommended number of nuggets into your dog’s bowl. If you prefer a softer texture, add about 1 tablespoon of warm water, Primal Bone Broth, or Primal Raw Goat Milk for each nugget. A stainless steel bowl is a good choice since plastic and porcelain bowls can hold onto bacteria over time.
Q4: How much should I feed my dog?
Ans: The right amount depends on your dog's weight, age, activity level, and individual metabolism. Use Primal's online Feeding Calculator to find the proper daily amount, or follow the general guidelines listed on the product packaging.
Q5: Can I mix this with my dog's kibble?
Ans: Yes. You can add the nuggets to your dog’s regular kibble or use them as a topper. If you’re feeding the nuggets as a complete meal, start with a small amount and slowly increase the portion over the next few days.
Q6: How should I store the nuggets?
Ans: Before rehydrating, store the shelf-stable nuggets in a cool, dry place. Once rehydrated, refrigerate any unused portion and feed it within five days to maintain optimum freshness, so it helps to rehydrate only what your dog will eat soon.
Q7: How many calories are in each nugget?
Ans: Each nugget contains about 46 kcal. One ounce is roughly 3-4 nuggets, so keep the calorie count in mind when adding them to your dog’s regular food as a topper.
Q8: What is in the guaranteed analysis?
Ans: The guaranteed analysis shows a minimum of 42% crude protein and 32% crude fat, with a maximum of 5% crude fiber and 8% moisture. The recipe also includes whole food ingredients such as beef, beef liver, organic fruits and vegetables, seeds, and kelp.
