Rawbble Freeze-Dried Pork Recipe Dog Food
Verified Jun 9, 2026
This is a very high-protein, high-fat freeze-dried pork recipe that can be used as a complete diet, meal topper, or treat for dogs of all ages, including large-breed puppies. It features pork, pork liver, and pork bone as the main ingredients, with added pumpkin for fiber and salmon oil for beneficial fatty acids. The freeze-drying process helps preserve nutrients while keeping the food lightweight and convenient to serve.
Nutritionally, this is a rich, meat-heavy freeze-dried diet that provides complete and balanced nutrition for all life stages, including large-breed puppies, when fed as directed. The ingredient list is very simple and centered around pork, with added vitamins, minerals, taurine, and salmon oil to round out the nutrient profile. It’s best suited for dogs who do well on a high-protein, high-fat diet and for owners who want a versatile food that can be fed as a main diet or as a high-value topper or treat.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Very high meat content with pork, pork liver, and pork bone as the first ingredients, providing highly digestible animal protein and naturally sourced minerals.
- AAFCO complete and balanced for all life stages, including large-breed growth, so it can safely be used as the sole diet when fed according to directions.
- Includes salmon oil, which is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids that support skin, coat, and overall health.
- Limited, straightforward ingredient list with pumpkin for fiber and no added carbohydrates like grains or legumes, which can be helpful for some dogs needing simpler formulations.
Considerations
- Protein (46% min) and fat (30% min) are quite high, which may be too rich for some dogs with pancreatitis history or those who need a lower-fat diet; such dogs generally do better on more moderate-fat foods.
- Pork is a common animal protein, so dogs with known pork allergies or sensitivities would need a different protein source.
- The calorie density is high (255 kcal per cup), so portion sizes need to be measured carefully to avoid unwanted weight gain, especially when used as a topper alongside another full diet.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Pork
Pork is used in pet foods primarily as a high-quality animal protein and flavor enhancer, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins (especially B12 and niacin), iron and zinc, plus fat for calorie-dense energy; it can be suitable for both dogs and cats when balanced in a complete diet. Because pork can be relatively high in fat, it may be inappropriate for pets requiring low‑fat diets or those prone to pancreatitis, some animals may have sensitivities to pork, and raw or undercooked pork can carry parasites or pathogens so it should be properly processed or cooked.
02
Pork Liver
Pork liver is an organ meat used in pet foods as a nutrient‑dense source of high‑quality protein and concentrated vitamins and minerals—notably vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12 and folate), iron and copper—that support red blood cell production, skin/coat condition and overall metabolism. Because liver is very rich in vitamin A and certain minerals, it should be included in limited amounts to avoid hypervitaminosis A or mineral imbalances and must be properly processed to reduce pathogen risk; pets with urinary stone issues or a pork sensitivity should use caution.
03
Pork Bone
Pork bone is commonly used in pet foods as a source of calcium, phosphorus and other minerals and is often rendered into bone meal or incorporated as bone broth or ground bone to add minerals, collagen and flavor. It can contribute to skeletal mineral balance and provide gelatinous collagen that may support joint and gut health, but whole or cooked pork bones can splinter and cause choking or intestinal injury, excessive bone can upset the calcium:phosphorus ratio or cause constipation, and products should be properly processed and sourced to minimize bacterial or parasite risks.
04
Pumpkin
Pumpkin is used in pet foods primarily as a fiber-rich carbohydrate and moisture source that can help regulate digestion and firm up loose stools or add bulk for softer stools, and it provides beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor) plus small amounts of vitamins and minerals for dogs and cats. It is safe and beneficial when plain cooked or canned (not spiced or sweetened pie filling), should be fed in moderation as a supplement rather than a primary food, and introduced gradually since large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset or interfere with absorption of some medications.
05
Salt
Salt (sodium chloride) is used in pet foods as a flavor enhancer, mild preservative and a source of essential electrolytes (sodium and chloride), and is often provided in iodized form to help meet iodine requirements for thyroid function; these minerals support nerve and muscle function and fluid balance in dogs and cats. Small, controlled amounts are nutritionally important, but excessive salt can cause dehydration, worsen heart or kidney disease and, in extreme cases, lead to salt toxicity, so pet owners should avoid adding extra table salt or high‑sodium human foods and follow veterinary guidance for animals with medical conditions.
