Venison Rolls FAQ
Q: Can dogs safely eat venison?
A: Yes. Venison is a lean, high-protein meat that most dogs do very well on. Our Venison Rolls are 100% venison, gently dehydrated, with no salt, seasonings, or preservatives. As with any new treat, introduce them slowly.
Q: Is venison good for dogs with sensitive stomachs?
A: For many dogs, yes. Venison is lean and it's a novel protein, meaning most dogs haven't eaten it before. With only one ingredient, there's nothing hidden to upset their stomach. Start with small pieces and check with your vet if your dog has ongoing stomach issues.
Q: What to mix with venison for dog food?
A: Venison pairs well with gentle foods like plain cooked sweet potato, pumpkin, or rice. You can also break Venison Rolls into small pieces and mix them into your dog's regular food for extra flavour. If you're making full meals at home, work with your vet so the diet is complete and balanced.
Q: Is venison better for dogs than beef?
A: For many dogs, yes. Venison is naturally leaner than beef and still high in protein. Beef is also one of the most common causes of food allergies in dogs, while venison is a novel protein most dogs have never tried.
Q: Are Venison Rolls suitable for dogs and cats with allergies?
A: Yes. Venison is a novel protein often recommended for pets with food sensitivities or allergies. With only one ingredient, there's nothing hidden to trigger a reaction. If your pet has a known allergy, check with your vet first.
Q: Are these treats 100% single-ingredient?
A: Yes. Our Venison Rolls are 100% venison with no fillers, grains, glycerine, preservatives, or additives of any kind.
Q: What makes venison a good protein for pets?
A: Venison is a lean novel protein that naturally contains iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. It's a great choice for pets who need a low-fat, high-protein treat.
Q: Are Venison Rolls hard or soft?
A: They're firm, so many dogs enjoy working at a whole roll. For small dogs, seniors, and cats, break them into small pieces first.
Q: What size dogs can enjoy Venison Rolls?
A: Dogs of all sizes. Give a whole roll to bigger dogs, or break them into smaller pieces for small dogs, puppies, cats, and training.
Q: Are these treats raw or cooked?
A: They're gently dehydrated, not raw. Dehydrating keeps the natural nutrients while making the rolls shelf-stable.
Q: How should I store Venison Rolls?
A: Store in a cool, dry place and reseal the bag after opening. No refrigeration needed.
Q: Where does your venison come from?
A: Our venison is farmed in Canada and federally inspected. Every roll is made at our facility on Alderville First Nation using federally inspected meat.
Q: Can I feed Venison Rolls as a meal?
A: No. Venison Rolls are a high-value treat, not a complete diet. For meal replacement, talk to your vet so your pet's full nutritional needs are met.
My two coton de tulears love the freeze dried bison liver treats. We also get venison rolls and venison strips. I have tried other treats from the pet store but they won't eat them. My one dog actually jumps up and down when I go to the treat jar. Thank you Shades of Gray for making such great, healthy treats for my dogs!
My very picky (even with treats)pup Cora, LOVES the bison, elk and rabbit rolls. I use venison topper and recently rabbit topper on her meals, and she eats everything up!!! My grand puppy Winnie loves them too!
Crunchy and perfect size for my small dogs
My Pupper loves these treats. Gets her attention when we’re training!
My cats go crazy for these. I just slice them into bite sized pieces. They also love the venison strips.
