We love freeze dried raw food in our house. It is part of both dogs’ regular diet, and I love to use products such as Instinct® Raw Boost® Mixers as training treats and treats for playtime. Freeze-dried raw food is also becoming increasingly popular. It allows pet owners to conveniently take advantage of the nutritional benefits of a raw diet without worrying about messy ingredients or difficult to store items. Instinct Raw Boost Mixers makes it really easy to add a boost of raw to your pet’s diet easier because they are available at PetSmart, and there are even sample sizes available. I picked some up for the dogs to try and to use in our brain game exercises. As you will see, the mixers are perfect for that! But first, here is a bit more information about the product.
About Instinct Raw Boost Mixers
Nature’s Variety Instinct Raw Boost Mixers make it easy to add high protein raw nutrition to your pet’s kibble. the mixers are an all natural, freeze dried raw food that is convenient and super easy to use. Raw Boost Mixers provide pure animal protein for lean muscles and strong bones, and contain natural ingredients for optimal nutrient absorption. The mixers also include nutritious oils for healthy skin and coat. Depending on how much you feed and for how long, benefits can include proper digestion, healthy skin and coat, increased energy and vitality.

To feed the mixers, simply add some to your pet’s meal, on top of kibble or canned food. Mix them in with no need to add water. The back of the package gives instructions on the amount. But you know what I really love to use these for? I like to use them as treats in the dog’s brain games.
Using Raw Boost Mixers in Brain Games and Treat Toys

Eve and I picked out some beef Raw Boost Mixers to try out in our brain game toys. Brain games are a great way to keep your dog’s mind active. They involve making your dog figure out a puzzle in order to get food or treats. You can find a variety of them online and in pet stores, or you can even make your own simply by putting treats under tennis balls in a muffin tin. What is great about using Raw Boost Mixers in them is that the mixers are very nutritious, so my dogs get the benefit of that when playing their games. They also are the perfect size for most brain games and treat toys. You can also get sample packages for them too!

Both dogs love their games, and they really love Raw Boost Mixers. They get quite excited when either the games or the Instinct bag comes out.

Ty in particular loved the food. He kept trying to run off with the sample packages when I was taking photos!

Ultimately, I distracted him with his game.

Right now, you can get Instinct Raw Boost Mixers in sample sizes at PetSmart for $1.99 per bag. This is a great way to try out the product with your own pets. The sample bags are great too for use as treats and in games like the ones I showed here! You can store them in your freezer for special occasions or for daily use.

This is such a great idea to use these in the puzzle toys. My dogs love the Raw Boost Mixers and we’ll have to try this.

Such a great idea to use these for puzzle toys – my pack seem happiest when I stuff puzzle toys with super high value treats which these are -clearly, great idea and post.
Ruby loves Raw Boost Mixers as well. I absolutely LOVE the idea of adding them to games. We have been reading a lot about these puzzle games for dogs – especially the benefits for senior dogs. I was planning on picking a couple up for Ruby this weekend. Thanks for the great idea to use Raw Boost Mixers as a treat/reward in these puzzles.
Truffle and Brulee love the Instinct Raw Boost Mixers for cats.
