User questions & answers

Question:	How is the texture supposed to compare to other flavors? We feed her lamb and beef, but the chicken flavor we just received is very dry and hard
Answer:	I find the texture soft when compared to the venison which is very hard...I add organic chicken broth to this and my girls love it. It is important to add liquid as the texture/flavor is enhanced.
Question:	About how many patties are in a 16oz bag
Answer:	Maybe 15-18. I don't worry about the patties. It is the weight that I go by. At the bottom of the bag is powdery food but use it anyway. Fiona chomps it all down. She finally got over the 3lbs! Today she weighed in at a whopping 3.3 yay! LOL Life's little pleasures...that food is a miracle for Fiona and me.
Question:	How would this compare to giving raw meat? I live in a rural setting. I can get fresh beef or buffalo, or frozen. My dog is an outdoor German shepherd
Answer:	Unless you’re rich I don’t know how it’s possible to feed a large dog solely Stella & Chewy freeze dried patties. My dog is 70 pounds and he’d eat a $50 bag every 2-3 days to fulfill his calorie and nutrient requirements. If you have access to quality raw meat it will likely be much cheaper but more work to make your dog raw food. My dog loves Stella & Chewy food but it isn’t affordable to give besides as treats and even then it is by far the most expensive thing we buy even though he eats good quality dog food.
Question:	Why has there been such a huge price increase? I bought two 16 oz bags for $26 few months ago. Now one bag of 16 oz costs
Answer:	Two 16 Oz bags for $28 is not typically the price. The 25 Oz bag has always been $50 (some flavors even more.) the smallest bags are always at least $10 and the middle sized bag is always $30-ish. I wish they were cheaper, too.

User questions & answers

Question:	is bacteria destroyed by the freeze dried process
Answer:	I suggest you contact the company through their website. They have always been prompt and helpful when I've asked them questions in the past.
Question:	Are all ingredients in primal foods only from the usa? ty
Answer:	It's a Northern California-based manufacturer claiming to produce only the highest quality food.You might want to contact them at 866-566-4652
Question:	How long would this food last for a dog who is 15 pounds
Answer:	Oh I would say probably at least 2 weeks. My dog was 50 lbs and it lasted 10 days. But I guess it depends on how much food your eats, mine didn't eat that much he was over 15years old. I didn't go by the amount they suggested, it was way too much. Make sure you break up bricks, add warm water, and let it absorb all the water. It's a good food - did you read ingredients? Yummy! Hope this helps.
Question:	So nearly $10 a day for your dogs food? Is this company for real
Answer:	Hi Amy! The amount you would feed your pet depends on how much they weigh. If you have a bigger dog it would get pretty pricey to feed them just this. However, with bigger dogs it is a great topper which will provide them with some of the benefits of a raw diet.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the nutritional breakdown of this food? i can't seem to find it anywhere. is it up to aafco standards
Answer:	What’s interesting is it looks like one pound of food... I have small dogs 9lb and 14lb... at their recommendation of 1/2 cup each daily. I would need one bag daily. I love my dogs but no way I could afford this..Unless I’m reading this wrong ... it’s unbelievably ridiculous
Question:	I shouldnt think of it as 1 lb of food then. When water is added to a small portion it expands correct
Answer:	yes but not as much as you would hope. But my dog loves it, goes in circles just smelling it.
Question:	Kind of hard to figure out what you're getting here. How many cups of this is in a 1 lb bag
Answer:	I forgot the amount of cups but what I remembered about it that the cost was astronomical costing more than what I would spend on my own food approximately 40.00 for a pound of food might as well feed your dog a Kobe steak and still save money lol 😂
Question:	I can't find anywhere how many pounds this bag of dog food is other than only 1 lb for
Answer:	If you buy it from their website and subscribe- you can get 3 bags at about $82. My dogs weigh 13 lbs. Because they are spoiled rotten and I don’t have kids I use this. It’s cheaper and more convenient than other brands. BUT - yes it is expensive compared to grocery stores.

FAQs

Can ZIWI Peak be fed as a topper or mixed with another food? There’s no wrong way to feed ZIWI, it works great as a complete meal or as a topper for a nutritional boost on your existing food.

Why is there sometimes variability in my ZIWI Peak food? ZIWI Peak uses natural ingredients, handcrafted in small batches, featuring high inclusions of meat and organs and excludes artificial fillers, dyes and preservatives. This, in combination other natural factors such as age and seasonality of the ingredients we use, often results in variability of shape, size, color, texture and odor. This variation is perfectly normal and is an indicator as to how natural the food really is!

How do I transition my dog to Ziwi? ZIWI Peak is nutrient dense. A little goes a long way, don’t be surprised if you feed less! Introduce a new recipe slowly over 6-8 days, gradually increasing the amount of the new recipe while decreasing the old, until you are fully transitioned. Please refer to our transition guide on the packaging.

Can I rotate my dog through different Ziwi recipes? We recommend a gradual transition between proteins, to minimize the potential for digestive upset. Please refer to our transition guide on the packaging.

How does the new Provenance series differ from other ZIWI Peak recipes? Our Provenance air-dried recipes feature 5 meats & fish from a single region in New Zealand. Comparatively, our original Ziwi Peak recipes feature limited ingredient 1-2 protein sources.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are they individually wrapped
Answer:	No...they aren't wrapped individually
Question:	I have a dog that’s wont stop licking. Has anyone found that this food helped
Answer:	Licking can be a sign of food allergies, the most common being chicken. I eliminated poultry from my dog’s diet and went to all lamb (less likely to be allergic because it’s not fed as often). Other novel protein options include bison, kangaroo, fish, alligator, etc. He went from licking himself raw to no licking at all. What you can do Is eliminate all common allergens until the symptoms are gone and slowly add things back. I just eliminated poultry though and it worked! I know your question is pretty old but hopefully this will help someone out tgere
Question:	What is the expiry date of this batch of Primal freeze dried dog food
Answer:	I cannot find an expiration date, only a LOT #, which is D142413. I do not know what that means, guessing the 13 might be this year, but probably not safe to assume. The food always smells fresh and I usually go by the smell as I can easily detect being rancid or old that way. The pets LOvE this food! and I am glad to feed it because it is good for them.
Question:	What are the ingredients? My dog is allergic to so many things that I need to read the labels on everything I buy
Answer:	Old formula: lamb hearts, lamb livers, ground lamb bones, organic kale, organic carrots, organic yams, organic broccoli, organic apples, cranberries, blueberries, organic pumpkin seeds, organic sunflower seeds, minerals (zinc sulfate, copper carbonate, sodium selenite), organic parsley, organic apple cider vinegar, salmon oil, organic coconut oil, organic quinoa sprout powder, dried organic kelp, alfalfa, natural vitamin E, mixed tocopherols (natural preservative)New formula: lamb hearts, lamb livers, ground lamb bones, organic kale, organic carrots, organic squash, organic broccoli, organic apples, cranberries, blueberries, organic pumpkin seeds, organic sunflower seeds, montmorillonite clay, organic parsley, organic apple cider vinegar, salmon oil, organic coconut oil, organic quinoa sprout powder, dried organic kelp, alfalfa, vitamin E supplement, mixed tocopherols (natural preservative)

Question:	Do you need to rehydrate this before topping the food
Answer:	It depends how you use it... if as snacks, no. But if as a meal or larger amount, yes.

They go CRAZY on these special days. It's really up to you. I use them as treats... very versitile. I love this line as do my girls!!!!! A 17 lb JRT and a 8LB mix.

User questions & answers

Question:	Expired date
Answer:	There should be an expiration date on the back of the bag, lower half. Should be around 6 - 9 months from the time you purchase it. This is the absolute greatest dog food period.
Question:	How many servings per bag
Answer:	It varies based on the size of your dog. For a Maltese I fed two to three cubes a day and at that rate probably enough for a week and a half or so.
Question:	Is the crude fat correct at 26%. I was told it was 7% for the turkey and sardine
Answer:	Guaranteed Analysis Min. Protein-40%, Fat-23%, Fiber-2%, * REHYDRATED Analysis min Ptotei.-16%,Fat-7% Fiber max-1%, Moistyre max-72%
Question:	How many servings per bag
Answer:	This product is a freeze-dried complete raw diet. If reconstituted with water, the 14 oz. bag equals about 3 lbs wet food. So, this is a very pricey food at about $10.00 a lb. The 14 oz. Bag contains about 56 nuggets- a chunk about 1/3 the size of a deck of cards. The bag instructs a 10 lb dog to eat about 4 nuggets per day to maintain weight. So for a 10 lb dog, the bag would last about 14 days. However, this is a very nutrient dense, ultra premium product, with vitamins from sources like organic pumpkin seeds, celery, ginger, quinoa sprouts, alfalfa, kelp, etc. It nearly approximates the ketogenic, raw foods diet that is popular among natural or homeopathic vets. I have a 58 lb dog. She would eat about 24 nuggets per day, or about $15.00 daily if fed exclusively. I use this food as a mix-in supplement, adding 1 or 2 chunks to her daily diet of moistened kibble, fiber, cruciferous veggies and berries. We lost our last dog- the littermate of our present pet- to lymphoma at the age of three. I am taking no chances with our dogs nutrition, and this excellent raw food product is tough to beat.

Question:	Do I have to add water
Answer:	We can not stress enough how important it is to re-hydrate your freeze dried food. If you pet does not have at least 60% moisture in the food they eat the can not properly digest it.
Question:	How long would this last a 80 pd dog
Answer:	My 15 pound dog would consume this bag within a few weeks. I wanted to introduce hard kibble so at times I would use half the amount and crumble it up dry and mix in w the kibble- ensuring my pup had access to lots of water. It is meant to be hydrated w water before serving so pls keep that in mind. This is great freeze dried food - my pup is a VERY picky eater. Def worth giving it a try and testing out what amounts work best for your dog:) ingredients are exceptional.
