Questions? We have the answers!

Over what period should I transition from my current pet food to Pure Protein Air Dried?

Switching to a new food can be challenging for your dog. Ease in for a smooth transition. Give yourself at least a week to introduce and properly get started on feeding Pure Protein Air Dried.   

  • Days 1-2: Introduce with only 25% of the meal. 
  • Days 3-4: Increase to 50% of the meal. 
  • Days 5-6: Increase to 75% of the meal. 
  • Day 7: Fully transition to a complete Pure Protein Air Dried diet.

Can I rotate different Pure Protein Air Dried proteins?

Yes, but only after you’ve successfully transitioned from your previous feed to Pure Protein Air Dried. We know not all dogs have the same preferences, so we’ve made our food versatile: each protein is made with the same kcals intentionally, helping you switch between your dog’s specific preference. 

Will Pure Protein Air Dried be suitable for my puppy or senior pets?

Pure Protein Air Dried is formulated for adult pets only.

Will my pet feel satisfied?

Yes! Your pet will feel satisfied with Pure Protein Air Dried if you follow the feeding instructions to provide the right portion for their size and nutritional needs.

Can Pure Protein Air Dried be fed as a topper or mixed with another food? 

Yes, Pure Protein Air Dried as a topper or mix-in makes for a tasty and nutritious upgrade. Make sure you’re not over or under feeding by accounting for the kcalories of both foods. It’s easy to store, scoop, and serve, at home or on the go!

How often should I feed my pet Pure Protein Air Dried?

It depends! The weight and activity level of your dog can influence how many servings of food they need. Complete this short quiz to learn what’s best for them.  

If you’re on a budget, Pure Protein Air Dried makes for a great topper. Supplementing is an easy way to make their food tastier and more nutritious. Elevate your dog’s meals in a way that works for you. Still not sure? We’re here to help: consumerinfo@fullmoonpet.com 

Does Pure Protein Air Dried expire?

Pure Protein Air Dried should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Additionally, once opened, they should be consumed within 30 days or stored in an airtight container to maintain freshness. If food is transferred from their original bag, make sure the oxygen scavenger is also placed in the new container. This prevents mold from forming on the food.

What's changed from Full Moon Pet’s Freshly Crafted with your new Pure Protein Air Dried recipes?  

With Pure Protein Air Dried, you get the quality of fresh food with the convince of kibble. No prep needed, no special storage, just easy to store, scoop and serve without handling raw food. Both Freshly Crafted and Pure Protein Air Dried dog foods put protein front and center with fresh high quality USDA meat-based recipes delivering mouthwatering flavor that will keep your dog hooked.

Questions? We have the answers!

Why Fresh Frozen?

At Full Moon, we’ve set out to feed our dogs the same nourishing ingredients we’d feed ourselves.

Flash freezing allows us to deliver the highest quality ingredients at their peak nutrition in the least processed way. We don’t add any preservatives, so you’re able to conveniently store food longer (up to a year!) and still feel at peace knowing you’re offering a healthy meal, each time.

How is Freshly Crafted™ made?

We take pride in sourcing the meat in our recipes from Perdue Family Farms, where all animals are raised ethically and without use of antibiotics.

Starting in small batches, we gently cook the meat and liver in USDA-compliant facilities, flash freeze, and mix with frozen, raw vegetables. From beginning to end, we uphold the highest standards to be truly human grade.

Our unique individually frozen format allows you to easily scoop as little or as much as you want, or simply pour directly from the bag and serve. Easier for you, better for your dog.

How much should I serve my dog?

It depends! The weight and activity level of your dog can influence how many servings of food they need. Complete this short quiz to learn what’s best for them.

If you’re on a budget, Freshly Crafted makes for a great topper. Supplementing with Freshly Crafted is easy way to make their food tastier and more nutritious. Elevate your dog’s meals in a way that works for you.

Still not sure? We’re here to help: consumerinfo@fullmoonpet.com

Why is there a 3 bag order minimum?

Freshly Crafted ships frozen with lots of dry ice to keep the food cold in transit and while it waits on your doorstep. It's our responsibility to make quality dog food as accessible as possible and to minimize our carbon footprint from shipping, so we require a minimum of 3 bags per order and encourage ordering a month's worth of food at time.

How do I transition my dog to Freshly Crafted?

Switching to a new food can be challenging for your dog, especially shifting from kibble to fresh. We recommend slowly introducing your dog to Freshly Crafted over a course of a week by following this guidance:

Days 1-2: Introduce with only 25% of the meal.
Days 3-4: Increase to 50% of the meal.
Days 5-6: Increase to 75% of the meal.
Day 7: Fully transition to a complete Freshly Crafted diet.

We know not all dogs have the same preferences, so we've made our food versatile to serve:  frozen (for a firmer texture!), thawed at room temperature, or gently warmed in the microwave on defrost.

— Donald G. (5/5)

Beef jerky tenders

"I am attaching photos of another one of the bags of jerky that is rancid. These were sent directly from you and I had hoped that I could start getting them ordered through you, but if I’m going to continue to have these problems and then have to go buy them somewhere else I may have to rethink what I’m giving my pets. I’ve also had problems with a few of them, throwing them up and having some pretty severe diarrhea so this is not acceptable to me. I know you’ll probably send me a replacement but at this point to me that’s just not even enough. This makes 12 bags now I think that has been bad that I’ve had to contact you about and yes, this bag did have an oxygen absorber in it."

— CYNTHIA D. (3/5)

Yummy

"I have 6 Goldendoodles and it's hard to find treats that they all love. But, they love anything Full Moon! I love Full Moon products because they're human grade, made in the USA, and the treats are made in small batches."

— Tracy B. (5/5)

Q&A

Hello, my dog and neighbor dogs love the Full Moon chicken tenders. I would like to know how much cane sugar are in the tenders.
Hi Debbie, we’re so glad to hear your pups (and the neighbor dogs!) are loving the Chicken Tenders 🐶🧡 Each piece contains about 1% cane sugar, just enough to help with the natural curing process while keeping the treats tasty and safe.
