I hold these while he eats, because I worry about him choking. He only gets these rarely, but he freaking LOVES them!
Fresh Is Best Freeze Dried Raw Chicken Necks
This is kibble, but Frankie gets fed a raw food diet. But, I love that this is formulated for Cavalier puppies (they have an adult formula too). He gets this daily, sometimes when I need to distract him, other times I mix it into lactose-free yogur...
Royal Canin Cavalier King Charles Puppy 3lb
Frankie loves these and I love the clean ingredients. I also love feeing him a variety of foods, and lamb and salmon have so many nutritious properties in them! I only feed a few at a time - sometimes as a treat - sometimes as a topper. A big bag ...
K9 Natural Grain Free Freeze Dried Dog Food Lamb & Salmon 17.6oz
These are small and very crunchy. The first treat I bought for Frankie! Since he's a puppy, I gave them sparingly, but he gobbles them up.
Vital Essentials Beef Bites Dog Treats 6.2oz
These are the GOAT! I mean, the YAK. These cheese chews have been a lifesafer for distractions and mental exhaustion for Frankie. They are lactose free, and only 3 ingredients. He has access to them nearly all day and will always take it when I o...
Mighty Paw Yak Cheese Chews for Dogs, Small, 5 Pack
So, I actually give Frankie the Lamb Treats - if they become available on Amazon I will update. We consider them high-value treats. There are a few other varieties from Holi that I would definitely give a try!
HOLI Freeze Dried Chicken Dog Treats 3.5oz
A lot of dogs are lactose-intolerant, so I didn't even want to chance it with Frankie. This yogurt is awesome (for dogs and their humans, frankly). Sometimes I freeze this, sometimes I serve it as a pup cup, sometimes I mix his kibble or other trea...
Fage Best Self, 32 Oz
Any natural, no sugar added, peanut butter is great for doggos. I usually get mine from Costco but just read the ingredients - there should be absolutely no sweetener. PB is great for mental exhaustion when served on a lick mat!
365 Organic Unsweetened Peanut Butter 16oz (2)
We got a sample pack once and I fed one stick a day to Frankie. I loved the variety and Frankie couldn't get enough of the taste. Some of it smells pretty strongly, which I guess just means it's full of natural ingredients! It doesn't need to be r...
Choolip Vita Stick Lickable Cat & Dog Treats
I really needed to increase Frankie's caloric consumption when the doctor didn't feel he was gaining weight fast enough. I got some of this and served it with his kibble for a mid-day snack. I also sometimes froze it (when I remembered in the morni...
Stella & Chewy's Grass-Fed Beef Bone Broth
Meals
We buy this from a local pet store. It was recommended by the breeder and we have no complaints in the 6 months we've been feeding Frankie! He loves it.
Answers Pet Food
We buy this from a local pet store. These come in “brick”-sized servings and we mix 1/8th of a brick with Frankie's two mini beef patties for his meals. I love how nutritious it is! Frankie, of course, gobbles it up.
My Perfect Pet
Freeze-dried food is GREAT for travel or on-the-go. Frankie usually eats refrigerated raw food for his meals, but for those times we cannot transport cold food, these are wonderful supplements. Great ingredients and easy to prepare (you can either ...
smallbatch Pets Freeze Dried Lamb Dog Food 14oz
Feeders
If you take your dog places and you don't have this.... WHY? It is a water bottle, water server, water CONserver, treat food holder, dog food bowl, and poop bag dispenser all in one. Everyone who sees us with it always comments on how clever it is!
AVELORA Dog Water Bottle with Food Container
For a small breed dog who eats like a maniac - this has been a lifesaver. Frankie was literally inhaling his food when we served it in a bowl. This lickmat slowed him down (helping with digestion, I'm sure) and provides some mental stimulation. We...
Mighty Paw Dog Lick Pad - BPA-Free Silicone
This is a newer slow-feeder bowl we just got for Frankie. It works with both dry kibble and wet raw food. It definitely slow him down and provides mental exercise/exhaustion!
Bifeaw Slow Feeder Dog Bowl Silicone Sky Blue
These are great because they fit in the crate, raised, so puppy is less likely to step in and spill!
40oz No Spill Stainless Steel Dog Bowls Set
These are great for on the go, or even just hanging out in the backyard! I love that the foldable part of it is somewhat customizable - so for Frankie, he doesn't need a deep bowl because he's so little, so I can keep one of the "folds" intact so he...
Collapsible Dog Bowls 2 Pack Large Size
I love that this is oval so there are no corners where food or gunk can get stuck! Nonslip is so important too.
