Freeze-Dried Raw Peelin' Fantastic Dog Treats
Verified Aug 23, 2026
These freeze-dried raw dog treats use chicken and chicken liver as the main protein sources, with organic banana and goat milk added for extra flavor and digestive support. They’re high in protein and fat, crunchy in texture, and are designed to be a tasty, nutrient-dense snack rather than a complete diet.

Top Pick
This is a high-quality, meat-based freeze-dried treat that can work well as a training reward or occasional snack for most dogs. The combination of chicken, organ meat, and goat milk makes it very nutrient-dense and appealing to many dogs, while the limited, simple ingredient list is helpful for owners who like to know exactly what they’re feeding. Because it is rich and calorie-dense, it’s best used in moderation and counted toward your dog’s daily calorie intake.

Strengths
- Chicken and chicken liver provide high-quality, highly digestible animal protein and important vitamins and minerals.
- Goat milk and organic banana add some natural nutrients and may be gentle on many dogs’ digestion.
- Freeze-dried processing helps preserve nutrients and flavor without the need for artificial preservatives.
- Simple, short ingredient list with no corn, wheat, soy, or artificial colors or flavors is easy to understand.
Considerations
- Contains chicken, which is a common food allergen, so it is not suitable for dogs with chicken sensitivities.
- With 3 calories per treat and 24% fat, these are energy-dense and should be fed sparingly, especially for dogs prone to weight gain or pancreatitis.
- This is a treat, not a complete and balanced diet, so it should not replace your dog’s regular food.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

02
Chicken Liver
Chicken liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat commonly used in pet foods and treats as a highly palatable protein source and flavor enhancer, providing concentrated vitamins (especially vitamin A and B-complex), iron, and copper that support energy metabolism, red blood cell formation, and skin/coat health in both dogs and cats. Because it is so rich, liver should be fed in moderation—excessive intake can cause vitamin A toxicity, and its high fat content and risk of bacterial contamination mean it should be properly sourced or cooked and limited for pets with pancreatitis or specific dietary restrictions.
03
Banana
Banana is used in pet foods and treats primarily as a palatable source of carbohydrates, natural sweetness, and soluble fiber, often added in small amounts for texture and flavor. It provides potassium, vitamin B6 and modest vitamin C and fiber that can support digestion, but its high sugar and calorie content means it should be limited—especially for overweight or diabetic dogs—and it offers little nutritional necessity for obligate carnivores like cats; banana peels are also hard to digest and generally avoided.

04
Goat's Milk
Goat's milk is used in pet foods and treats as a dairy ingredient and supplemental source of digestible protein, fats, calcium, and certain B vitamins, and can serve as a base for milk replacers or probiotic-containing products. Some dogs and cats tolerate goat's milk better than cow's milk because of smaller fat globules and slightly lower lactose, but it is calorie-dense, not a complete diet, can still cause lactose intolerance or allergic reactions in sensitive animals, and should be pasteurized and used cautiously (or avoided) in pets with pancreatitis or weakened immune systems due to raw-milk pathogen risks.
05
Sunflower Oil
Sunflower oil is used in pet foods as a concentrated fat source to increase energy density, palatability and supply linoleic acid (an essential omega‑6) that helps maintain healthy skin and coat. It is beneficial for dogs and cats but is high in omega‑6 and low in omega‑3—so formulas should balance fatty acids to avoid an inflammatory imbalance; it is calorie‑dense (important for weight control and pancreatitis-prone animals) and may require antioxidants or high‑oleic formulations for better shelf stability.
