Not All Treats Are Created Equal:

The Science Behind Dehydrated Raw

If you’re training a high-drive working dog, you don’t want to reach for a treat made with wheat flour and beef “flavor.” You want clean, real fuel. But what makes a treat actually functional for your K9?

What is Dehydrated Raw?
Dehydrated raw treats are made by slowly removing moisture from raw meat at low temperatures. This preserves the nutritional integrity of the protein without destroying enzymes, amino acids, or fats that support energy and performance.

Why Working Dogs Need It:

• Energy-Dense: Raw treats contain bioavailable fat and protein, perfect for dogs burning calories during training.

• Minimal Processing: Less heat means more preserved nutrients—ideal for recovery and stamina.

• Digestibility: Raw diets are easier for dogs to digest, resulting in better nutrient absorption and less waste.

What to Look for:
✔ Single-ingredient
✔ No glycerin, smoke flavor, or preservatives
✔ Visible fat marbling or color variation
✔ Clearly labeled sourcing

At RAW DOG K9, we make our dehydrated raw treats in small batches, by hand, and we taste-test them with the toughest critics—our own dogs.
