Pork Freeze-Dried Raw Soft Bites Dog Treats
Verified Jun 17, 2026
A high-protein, freeze-dried pork treat that can also be used as a topper or meal, made from pork meat and organs with added vitamins and chelated minerals. The recipe is grain-free and very low in carbohydrates, with a soft texture that’s easy to break into small pieces for training or for dogs with dental issues. It’s designed for dogs of all ages who do well on pork-based, meat-rich diets.
This is a very high-protein, meat-based freeze-dried product that functions as a treat, topper, or even a full meal, using pork and nutrient-rich organs as the foundation. The ingredient list is short, with no added starches or fillers, and includes a vitamin and chelated mineral blend to help round out nutrition. It’s best suited for healthy dogs who tolerate pork well and whose total daily intake (including this product) is carefully portioned, since it’s calorie-dense.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Very high protein (65% minimum) and moderate fat (18% minimum), appropriate for a meat-rich, low-carbohydrate diet when portioned correctly.
- Uses clearly named animal ingredients (pork, pork liver, pork spleen), providing high-quality protein and naturally occurring vitamins and minerals from organs.
- Simple, grain-free formula with no added starches, which can be helpful for dogs needing a low-carbohydrate option or with sensitivities to common grains.
- Includes added vitamins and chelated minerals to help support more complete nutrition compared with many simple meat-only treats.
Considerations
- Despite being marketed as a treat, the feeding directions position it as a complete meal; without an AAFCO statement, it’s safer to treat this primarily as a high-quality treat or topper unless a veterinarian directs otherwise.
- Very calorie-dense at about 195 kcal per cup, so portions need to be kept small, especially for less active or overweight-prone dogs.
- Contains pork and pork organs, which are fine for most dogs but not suitable if your dog has a known pork allergy or sensitivity.

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 Spleen
Pork spleen is an organ meat commonly used in pet foods and treats as a palatable protein and micronutrient source, supplying concentrated protein, bioavailable heme iron and B vitamins (especially B12). It can help support red blood cell health and overall nutrient density, but like other organ meats should be used in moderation in balanced diets, handled or cooked to reduce food‑safety risks, and may be a concern for pets with certain conditions (e.g., kidney disease or needs for low‑purine diets).
04
Calcium Carbonate
Calcium carbonate is a common mineral supplement and buffering agent in pet foods used to provide dietary calcium, help meet calcium-to-phosphorus balance, and stabilize pH. It supports bone and dental health and is essential for growth, reproduction, and metabolic functions, but excessive calcium (or imbalanced calcium/phosphorus ratios) can cause skeletal problems in growing animals—especially large-breed puppies—so it should be included at appropriate levels determined by a qualified formulation.
05
Mixed Tocopherol
Mixed tocopherols are a blend of natural vitamin E compounds (alpha, beta, gamma and delta tocopherols) used in pet foods primarily as a natural antioxidant and preservative to protect fats and fat‑soluble nutrients and extend shelf life. They also supply dietary vitamin E—an essential antioxidant for immune function, skin and coat health and cellular integrity in dogs and cats—and are generally safe at typical use levels, though they are not a substitute for a complete vitamin formulation and may be less effective in animals with fat‑absorption disorders.
