RP Sardines

Elevate your pet’s bowl with Raw Performance frozen whole sardines. Sourced whole and flash-frozen to preserve peak nutrient integrity, these small oily fish offer complete, species-appropriate nourishment straight from nature.

Each 1 lb bag contains approximately 7 to 9 individually frozen whole sardines—including head, body, tail, and delicate, edible bones. Serving fish whole provides a balanced ratio of natural calcium, phosphorus, and essential minerals that mimic what carnivores naturally consume in the wild.

Sardines are one of the cleanest, richest natural sources of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA. These essential fats play a key role in reducing inflammation, soothing dry or itchy skin, boosting coat shine, promoting flexible joints, and supporting cognitive and cardiovascular health. Because sardines are small fish low on the aquatic food chain, they do not accumulate the heavy metals and toxins often found in larger predatory fish, making them a safe and clean choice for routine feeding.

Whether used as a daily meal booster, a training reward, or a healthy rotational topper on raw or kibble diets, these whole sardines make supplementing essential fatty acids simple, fresh, and mess-free.

INGREDIENT:

100% Whole Sardines.

FEEDING & THAWING GUIDELINES:

Thaw individual sardines in the refrigerator prior to serving, or feed them directly frozen as a crunchy, refreshing meal topper. Feed as a supplemental treat or meal enhancer alongside a complete and balanced diet. Always ensure fresh, clean water is available.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q1: How many sardines come in each 1 lb bag? A: Each 1 lb bag contains approximately 7 to 9 individual whole sardines, depending on the natural size and weight variation of each catch.

Q2: What are the main health benefits of feeding whole sardines? A: Sardines are naturally packed with omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), which reduce inflammation, promote soft and shiny coats, relieve itchy skin, and support joint, heart, and brain health. They also provide natural vitamin D, vitamin B12, and bioavailable calcium from soft bones.

Q3: Can both dogs and cats eat whole sardines? A: Yes. Both dogs and cats benefit greatly from whole sardines. Larger dogs can eat them whole, while smaller dogs and cats can enjoy them sliced into smaller portions or thawed and mashed into their regular meals.

Q4: Are the bones inside whole sardines safe for pets? A: Yes. Sardine bones are tiny, soft, and completely pliable, making them fully digestible and safe for dogs and cats when fed raw. They provide a safe, natural source of dietary calcium and phosphorus.

Q5: How should I store and thaw Raw Performance frozen sardines? A: Keep the bag stored in your freezer until ready to use. Because the sardines are individually frozen, you can easily pull out one or two fish at a time. Thaw in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours, or serve them straight from the freezer as a cold, crunchy treat. Once thawed, use within 2 to 3 days.
