What is the difference between freeze-dried and dehydrated dog treats?

The difference between freeze-dried and dehydrated dog treats is that freeze-dried treats are dehydrated at a very low temperature. Freeze-drying can help retain more of the nutrients, texture and flavor of the raw ingredients in dog treats, while dehydration uses heat, which may reduce the nutrient content of the treats and affect their flavor and texture. However, dogs tend to enjoy both freeze-dried dog food treats and dehydrated treats, and both can be very healthy snacks for your pup.

What are the benefits of feeding my dog freeze-dried or dehydrated treats?

The benefits of feeding your dog freeze-dried or dehydrated treats can include providing added protein and nutrients in your dog's diet. Many of these treats are made from real meat that has been freeze-dried or dehydrated, making them a tasty and protein-rich snack. Look for freeze-dried raw dog food treats or dehydrated jerky treats made from a single meat ingredient for a delicious and wholesomely meaty canine reward. Freeze-dried and dehydrated vegetable treats can make a healthy and tasty snack, too!

Are freeze-dried and dehydrated dog treats safer than raw treats?

Freeze-dried and dehydrated dog treats can be safer than raw treats, as the preservation process makes them shelf-stable and kills most pathogens. Many vets recommend against feeding your dog totally raw treats and foods, as they can harbor harmful pathogens and potentially make your dog ill. Talk to your vet about healthy and safe alternatives to raw treats; she may recommend trying freeze-dried raw and/or dehydrated dog treats for safety.

How do I store my freeze-dried and dehydrated dog treats?

Store your freeze-dried and dehydrated dog treats according to the package directions. Most dehydrated and freeze-dried dog treats are made to be shelf-stable, so they can be safely stored without refrigeration. Manufacturers usually recommend storing these treats well-sealed in a cool, dry place.
