Homemade guidance, not veterinary advice
These are plain baked meatballs with no onion, garlic, or seasoning, avoiding common pet-toxic foods, but they're a treat or topper rather than a complete meal. This is homemade guidance, not veterinary advice — introduce them gradually and check with your vet if your dog has dietary sensitivities.

Common questions
Can I freeze these turkey meatballs?
Yes — they're designed to batch and freeze, keeping for up to 2 months, so you can thaw a few at a time as treats or toppers.
Are these a full meal?
They work best as a treat or topper mixed into regular food, rather than a complete and balanced meal on their own.
Can I use ground chicken instead of turkey?
Yes, lean ground chicken can be swapped in using the same method.
