The original recipe from The Honest Kitchen. This 10 lb. carton of dehydrated raw food is ideal for adult maintenance. It is a unique blend of organic flaked grains, dehydrated raw beef, eggs, dehydrated raw vegetables, fruits and herbs. Verve is low fat, low calorie, with beef as the protein source. There is no added salt, sugar, artificial preservatives, wheat, corn, soy, beet pulp, dairy or by-products of any kind. Mix together with water to make a complete meal. Each resealable bag comes with 10 pounds of dehydrated food. When hydrated, the weight of food will increase by about four times, meaning the bag contains approximately 40-44 pounds of fresh food. All ingredients included are raw, including the protein sources. Ingredients: Organic rye, organic barley, hormone-free beef, organic flaxseed, organic oats, carrots, alfalfa, potatoes, eggs, red and green bell peppers, spinach, apples, cranberries, chicory, parsley, peppermint and rosemary, tricalcium phosphate, choline chloride, zinc amino acid chelate, vitamin D3 supplement, vitamin E supplement, potassium chloride, iron amino acid chelate, copper amino acid chelate Analysis: Min.

Sodium 0.14% - 0.16% One cup dehydrated food = 1 lb of fresh food Each cup of dehydrated food should be re-hydrated with 1 to 1.25 cups of pure, warm, filtered, or tap water, or boiled water that has been allowed to cool. Add the water to the food and stir well. The product will initially resemble soup. Let stand for 10 minutes minimum, for the ingredients to re-hydrate sufficiently. Add your own ingredients if you wish (see "Serving Recommendations" below). Stir again, and serve. Any leftovers should be refrigerated or discarded. The following suggested daily amounts should be adjusted to suit your own dog's unique nutritional requirements, which will vary according to age, breed, level of activity and what other ingredients are added. | | Amount of food per day (dry) | | Dog Weight | Less Active | Very Active | | Up to 10 lbs | 1/2 Cup | 1 Cup | | 10 to 30 lbs | 1 Cup | 2 Cups | | 30 to 50 lbs | 2 Cups | 4 Cups | | 50 to 70 lbs | 2-1/4 Cups | 4-1/2 Cups | | 70 to 90 lbs | 2-3/4 Cups | 5-1/2 Cups | For most dogs, these amounts should be divided into two daily meals. Most dogs enjoy additional raw meat and bones or cooked meat (never cooked bones) being added to this diet. Mix in about half to one cup of meat for each cup of food suggested above. Additional vegetables, fruit or other ingredients may also be added, for variety. Senior, overweight, or less active dogs may eat the dehydrated food alone. This food is minimally processed to preserve the natural nutrients present; the food undergoes no high heat processing or extrusion whatsoever, and is therefore a highly concentrate source of natural nutrition. This product is made with 100% human food grade ingredients. It contains no animal feed grade ingredients and is made in a USDA-inspected facility, but is intended for your dog to eat, not you!
