Most premium dog food arrives frozen, on a schedule, in an insulated box you have to be home for. There is a version that does not.
This page is written for owners in Nassau County weighing up freeze-dried raw. The nutrition below holds wherever you live — what changes locally is delivery, not diet — so we would rather give you the substance than pad it with things we cannot actually verify about your city.
Working out what to order
Order size follows from the feeding chart rather than guesswork. A 14 oz bag is about 7.8 cups; a 50 lb dog fed a quarter bowl uses a little under a cup a day, so a bag runs roughly eight days.
Set the interval from that, then adjust once after the first cycle.
The quarter-bowl answer
Feed Loyal Saints as about 25% of the bowl, replacing a quarter of the existing food rather than adding on top. Because the food is concentrated rather than diluted, a quarter still puts real freeze-dried raw into every meal.
At Halo Club pricing that is about $4.04 a day for a 50 lb dog and $5.48 for a 75 lb dog.
Storing it properly
Sealed and dry, an opened bag keeps for several weeks. Roll the top closed and keep it out of humidity — moisture is the only thing that shortens its life, which is the flip side of why it is shelf-stable at all.
Do not decant into a container that has held oily kibble; residue goes rancid and taints what you put on top of it.
What you are actually paying to ship
Fresh refrigerated food is roughly three-quarters water by weight. That water is portioned, chilled, packed with single-use coolant and driven to your door, then occupies your freezer until you use it.
Cold chain logistics is one of the most expensive ways to move anything, which is why it is normally reserved for medicine and seafood.
All life stages, and what that means
Every formula is complete and balanced for all life stages, so the food does not change as your dog ages — the amount does.
Puppies need considerably more energy per pound than adults. Seniors usually need less, though not always. Start from the chart, then adjust by body condition over a few weeks.
Why the bag can look part-empty
Freeze-dried pieces are light and irregular, so they settle in transit. The bag is filled to weight, not to volume.
A 14 oz bag is fourteen ounces, which works out to about 7.8 cups. Filling to visual fullness would make the amount you actually receive drift — and the feeding chart depends on it not drifting.
Why the scoop looks small
A cup of Loyal Saints weighs 50.9 g and carries 230 calories. A cup of a typical adult kibble weighs 101 g. Same cup, roughly twice the food by weight.
Per gram, Loyal Saints carries about 29% more energy. That inversion is why the correct portion looks stingy in the bowl, and why most people overfeed in the first week.
If you are switching from kibble
Do not match the old volume. This food weighs about half what kibble does per cup, so the correct portion looks smaller than you expect and matching by eye overfeeds.
Common questions
How long does an opened bag keep?
Sealed and dry, several weeks. Roll the top closed and keep it out of humidity.
Is there a subscriber discount?
Halo Club members hold 20% off every order, not just the first.
Does it need refrigeration?
No. It is shelf-stable because the water is gone. Store it sealed in a cupboard.
