Overview
["This 3.6 oz shaker holds a cheddar cheese flavored powder designed to sprinkle over a dog's regular food, giving a flavor boost for dogs that need encouragement to eat. Raw Paws formulates it as an all natural, grain-free powder free of corn, soy, and wheat.", "Beyond appetite stimulation, Raw Paws lists digestive health and skin and coat support among its benefits, and the shaker format makes it easy to control how much you add per meal. It's meant for dogs and cats of any breed size.", "At $13.99 for 3.6 oz, it's priced as an add-on rather than a full food. With 580 reviews averaging 4.1 stars and about 100 bought in the past month, it holds a respectable but more middling rating compared to some other toppers in this category."]

Performance notes
As a powder topper rather than a standalone meal, this product is meant to be sprinkled over existing food to add flavor and encourage eating, so its role is to support appetite and digestion rather than provide complete nutrition on its own.
What buyers say
A 4.1 star average from 580 reviews shows a decent but mixed reception, a bit lower than many single-ingredient freeze-dried treats in this category, with roughly 100 bought last month suggesting steady but modest demand.
It's a powder meant to be shaken directly onto your dog's regular food to add cheddar cheese flavor and encourage eating.
Can I use this for cats too?
Yes, Raw Paws formulates this topper for both dogs and cats of any breed or size.
Will this help a dog that won't eat due to illness?
This topper is formulated to help stimulate appetite through flavor, but it isn't a treatment for underlying health issues. If your dog has stopped eating, talk to your vet.
