If fed as a topper, use at 10% of the daily calorie requirement alongside current complete and balanced food. If fed as a meal mixer, add supplements to cover common nutritional gaps. Rotation of 3 or more proteins is encouraged.

We recommend feeding your pet 2-3% of their ideal body weight daily based on a two-meal-per-day schedule. You may adjust quantities for proper weight management according to your pet’s age and activity level.

Suitable for: Adult Dogs, Senior Dogs, Small Dogs, High-Activity Dogs.

Transitioning to a raw diet can be done in one of two ways. The first option is a slow and gradual transition, while the second option is a “cold-turkey” switch.

Should be fed as a base meal. Rotation of 3 or more proteins is encouraged. Supplementation is recommended to cover common nutritional gaps. Each serving amount will depend on your dog’s age, weight, and activity level. For adult dogs, we recommend feeding 2% to 3% of their body weight daily.

    I have been feeding my dogs this HVM for a few years and they absolutely love it! I buy the 5 lb chubs and thaw them just enough to cut into 1/2 lb servings and refreeze; then thaw what they need per meal twice a day. My dogs have beautiful coats, clean healthy teeth, are active and at a healthy weight. I am so happy to have such great options available to feed my dogs the best food possible, and the delivery is so close to my house!

  2. Robin (verified owner) –

    TQDF has been feeding my dogs since December 2011 and the difference it has made in my dogs lives is incredible! I do the same as the previous reviewer and the Vet & staff are always amazed at how beautiful their coat, skin & teeth. We feed ALL the HVM’s, assorted choices of chicken feet, beef neck bones and organ meat. Thanks for making the drive to New Hampshire to give our dogs Top Quality food & keep up the good work!

  3. Robin Bishop (verified owner) –

    First time purchase. My 2 yorkies love this!! I will continue to buy!

  4. kpyle44 (verified owner) –

    My two Springer’s absolutely love this mix. They stand by the refrigerator door when they know this is what is thawed in the rotation. I also purchase the 5 lb chubs and process them the same way that Marion from the above review does. Partially thawed makes portioning a breeze.

  5. frehleytor (verified owner) –

    My German Shorthaired Pointers devour this Turkey HVM. To anyone with dogs that have trouble digesting food, my dogs always digest this very well, and the stool is very firm. Grateful to have TQD.

  6. Alivia Young (verified owner) –

    Great stuff my dog is obsessed! I love the HVM meals because is has everything already in it.

  7. monibox (verified owner) –

    My pup loves the turkey mix, licks the bowl clean most times. I deducted one star only because the bone content seems to be a bit high and I usually end up adding in some sardines or the like to even out the mix a bit to not get a constipated pup. But still, overall, this seems to be a really healthy and lean option.

  8. t_young20 (verified owner) –

    My Shepherd/Lab loves everything we have tried. We are customers for ever now.

  9. Logan Moore (verified owner) –

    My pit mix who is sensitive to beef/chicken loves the turkey!!! Only thing that gets him to stop itching.

  10. ChyRisse Poag (verified owner) –

    My poodle loves the turkey hvm. If I take too long preparing his food, he gets extremely feisty and barks to encourage my speed. He licks the bowl long after his food is gone.

  11. Sarah Elizabeth (verified owner) –

    Love the HVM grinds! My two boxers love them also!

  12. Vincent Bregman (verified owner) –

    My English bulldog loves this grind!

  13. morganpfellner (verified owner) –

    My mini Aussie love this!

  14. Ashley Lennon (verified owner) –

    When I adopted my rescue hound-mix, her gut was wrecked from a severe case of intestinal parasites. Thanks to relentless treatment, she’s long since been parasite-free but one lasting side-effect has been sensitive dietary allergies. The only meat that does not cause her irritation is turkey…clean, quality turkey meat. My sweet girl devours her Turkey HVM meals. Not only is she pleased with this product but I, too, have been pleased with the quality.

    Logistical information:

    Shipping: Most often, the delivery is true to the estimated time given at check-out. Be cautious and mindful around holidays as that most likely will delay the delivery. If you find yourself without meat due to this delay, consider picking up meat from the grocery store (like uncooked turkey necks from Kroger and provide fruits and veggies as a supplement). The chubs will come in a large plastic bag within the cardboard shipping box and they will be shipped with either dry ice or large gel ice packs.

    Packaging: The meat will come in a plastic wrapped tube that is pinched on both ends. Often, you’ll see a little meat sticking out of the end. Sometimes the chubs might have a tiny hole punctured in the plastic somewhere along the chub.

    Prep and Insight: When I prep the meat, I’ll take two chubs out of the freezer and lay them on a cookie sheet to catch and contain the blood if it leaks out. The cookie sheet with the chubs go in the refrigerator to thaw. Once thawed, I carefully pull the cookie sheet out of the fridge (often there’s a pool of blood under the packaged chubs). I use a knife to slice open the chub. Then, I portion the meat according to my dogter’s weight. I share my process to give you insight into what you can expect and an idea to try if you’d like. Do what works best for you and your fur babe.

  15. Carolyn Scott (verified owner) –

    My dog loves this food! This is by far my dog’s favorite raw food and it helps him maintain an ideal weight, healthy coat, playful energy and it mitigates digestive issues he’s had on other foods.

  16. igodish (verified owner) –

    Top Quality Dog Food’s Turkey HVM, along with their Beef version, has become a staple in my dog’s diet. The combination of ground turkey, organs, and a mix of fruits and vegetables ensures a balanced and nutritious meal. I appreciate the high quality of antibiotic and hormone-free ingredients, and my dog loves the variety. Since incorporating both options, I’ve seen positive changes in his overall health and energy levels. Highly recommended for pet owners looking for top-notch raw feeding options!

  17. Kathy Roche (verified owner) –

    We tried HVM’s for the first time recently – we got pork, beef, turkey, chicken and duck. They were all a big hit with my small dogs, and I loved how much time they saved me in veggie prep! Will definitely be ordering more.

  18. madisonmcmurray15 (verified owner) –

    This, along with the other rolls in the Beginner Box have been perfect for my 2-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier. Not only do these contain everything required for the raw base part of her diet (I feed other things for supplimental nutrients along with just the raw food such as berries, greens, probiotic, multivitamin powder, etc.), but the price is unbeatable and delivery is fast and reliable. I searched for a long time to find an affordable way to feed my dog a balanced raw diet and this is by far the best company and product I have found.

  19. madisonmcmurray15 (verified owner) –

    I cant say enough good things about this mix. It has the essential things that my dog needs in her diet and the price is unbeatable. I will be a long-time Carnos customer and extremely satisfied with all of my orders so far. Shipping is very fast and reliable as well.

  20. Jennifer Sosa (verified owner) –

    My Husky loves these meals! He has a bit of a sensitive stomach and the turkey recipe is great for him. He cant get enough!

  21. Paul Moniz (verified owner) –

    My guy Jon B loves the turkey blend he goes crazy over it. His coat never has been as shiney as it has been since starting on this.

  22. Gabrielle Brick (verified owner) –

    I have a cat sanctuary (Kitties & Cacao ™) in Hudson Valley, NY, and we are dedicated to feeding all indoor rescues their primal diet. We love to buy bundles of chicken and turkey recipes and mix them together, then add a roll of organ parts, and the cats go wild! It’s purrfectly delicious for them, and they are incredibly healthy and satisfied.

  23. Cynthia (verified owner) –

    This is my second time ordering from you guys. my dog won’t eat vegetables and the fact that its in your food, she eats it up and loves it. Thank for your great products.

  24. John Sepe (verified owner) –

    All the Complete and Balanced choices my dogs (Cane Corso’s) love! They enjoy switching between the different flavors (Beef, Duck, Pork, Chicken, Turkey) And speaking of someithng more importantly….. I believe that when I switched to RAW- it added well over a year of healthy living to my senior. He is now active, healthy, and happy! I have seen this happen to other seniors who switch. I just wish I did it earlier.

  25. Ashley (verified owner) –

    I’m a big fan of these ready-made meal options. It’s incredibly convenient and I know it’s top quality. Also, the 1 lb roll option is the perfect portion size for my German Shepherd’s meals. It’s much easier than having to split a larger size roll.

  26. Melanie Lozano (verified owner) –

    Our 3 dogs LOVE this turkey blend with the beef recipe! Highly recommend trying

  27. trouble4455 –

    This is such a good way to get a raw diet into your dogs life. My puppy loves this stuff, and I can’t wait for him to try all the flavors. I’m glad I found this site.

  28. LISA (verified owner) –

    My Boxers just LOVE Carnos. We started using this brand due to a recommendation of a friend. We’ve never switched companies. To use, there is no better. The best part, it only takes at most 2 days after I order based on my zone.
