Each 20lb box contains 40 frozen patties weighing 8oz each.

All frozen foods are shipped in a box with an insulated liner using dry ice to keep the food cold until it reaches your doorstep.

Many dogs are sensitive to temperature, especially cold food, so let thawed food from the fridge sit on the counter for up to an hour to warm up. Adding hot (not boiling) water brings out the aroma of the food and can help entice a picky eater. You can try a topper like raw goat milk or bone broth, and play with the texture of the food by mashing it with a fork or adding water to thin it out.

The high-heat processes of cooked foods alter various essential components in the food. It destroys beneficial elements like good bacteria, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, and more. Raw pet food is the diet that dogs are biologically hardwired to thrive on. Uncooked food keeps natural, vital nutrients intact.

Starting your pet on Steve’s Real Food is best achieved with a transition over 7-10 days. Begin by replacing a portion of your pet’s old food with the new food, and gradually adjust the ratio every few days—introducing a bit more new food while reducing the amount of the old. Most pets smoothly transition within about two weeks with no issues.

Steve’s Real Food is versatile—you can use it as a complete meal or integrate it into your pet’s diet. There are no strict rules. This is food, not a prescription, so choose what works best for your budget and lifestyle! The more fresh food included in your pet's diet, the better. Studies have highlighted significant health benefits from replacing just 20% of a processed diet with fresh foods.
