Brad’s top five reasons to use raw or raw alternative foods atop your pet’s kibble or canned food meal are:

1. It’s an excellent way to easily introduce high quality raw food to your pet’s diet
2. It adds back valuable nutrients to their meals, which are often cooked out of kibble or canned food
3. It brings whole food ingredients to their diet in a simple way
4. It entices picky eaters because these all taste so good
5. It prevents taste bud boredom!

Kriser’s has a bunch of raw and raw alternative topper options available in store!  Here are some quick bites about each of them:

Stella & Chewy’s Freeze-Dried & Freeze-Dried Meal Mixers have a whopping 90-98% meat, organ and bone as their main source (the amount depends on the particular protein variety). To use these as a meal topper just scoop, pour or sprinkle an appropriate amount on top of your pet’s regular food. You can choose to serve as dried bits or rehydrate before mixing in. This is a great option if your pet is a finicky eater and might need some excitement to his or her meals!

Primal Freeze-Dried Nuggets are an another great choice if you’re looking to add vital nutrients back into their diet to keep them happy and healthy. Their nuggets are perfectly sized and offer 77-93% meat, organ and bone.

The Honest Kitchen Proper Toppers are made of 90% chicken or turkey plus they add a mix of apples, pumpkin, chard and blueberries to create a healthy option they love. In addition to meal toppers, these double as a lightweight training treat which can be tough to over-feed.

ZiwiPeak uses its amazing 95% mix of meat, organs, bones and green lipped mussel, then pairs it with all natural kelp, parsley, and other super nutrient vitamin and mineral sources to create delicious bite-sized jerky pieces. Like all the other topper options, this is a great way to introduce pups to raw and add nutrients back into their diet. This one is especially great for senior pets or nursing mothers who may need additional calories in their diet.
