“I tried this food for my elderly dog. She liked the first one but then didn't like the rest. She's extremely picky, so I wasn't surprised. The company was great in refunding me for the unused food after I donated it to our local shelter. My main complaint is that they have treats they sell called Snap Sticks. Our dog LOVED those. She is 18 and there's not many treats she loves. I tried to purchase just those and they will not sell them unless you are purchasing their food. Why wouldn't they want to sell their treats separately? They are expensive, and I offered to order enough to make shipping worth it or to pay for shipping, still no. Weird a company does not want to sell their product.”
“My sweet 11 & 12 yr old girls have been on Farmers Dog for 4 months and they are doing great. They were over weight and have both lost more than 7lbs. Their skin, coat and energy levels have improved. They both love the food. It looks and smells like homemade. We love the packaging. It is so convenient. The customer service is A+. We had one delivery that got off course and when I texted the company to let them know that it didn't arrive they immediately responded and offered to send a replacement order right away. This was on a Saturday evening and they responded within 30 mins. I really have nothing bad to say about this company. So happy!”
“You "folks" are great Package arrived EST 3:30pm on the 21st of Jan !! My Pal Brady O'Hare was in the garage waiting to get it into the house. He Thanks You. We had used our last package this morning at 8:00 am and are Housebound because of an icy Drive Way.
You promised delivery on Jan 21st and hand delivered it over that icy driveway to the door of the garage. Thanks to all.”
“it's mushy, certainly takes more than 12 hours to defrost....overnight and then some...it's then cold with ice crystals in it......is a mess to take out of bag and store...it's expensive...and my dog only likes the beef...it's just too much to deal with...and did I mention expensive again?!! No thank you.”
“Ver, VERY EXPENSIVE!! I received 4 packets of food that would feed my dog two and a half days and it was almost $77.00 dollars!! Plus the pork has so much fat in it if I tried to run my finger over the spoon it was super, super greasy! My dog did NOT like the pork AT ALL!!
It got to where neither one of my dogs would eat any of the food. I don't know if they changed the recipe at any point on my subscription! They never did gobble it down like the commercial though!”
“I do use the farmers dog almost a full year now. I will say my dog originally did have some digestive issues however I combined it this with an oat grain base mix. This fixed the entire issue. She has done very well with this food she will be 17 in May. The customer service is one of the biggest things that keeps me coming back. They truly make ordering a breeze. They easily allow me to pause when needed. I wish I would have started Jillian on this years ago!!!! Thank you so much for all you do.”
“Started my almost 13 yr old pittie on farmers dog and saw an immediate change in his poop, and his digestion issues are completely resolved. By his second pack I see a much more playful dog like he used to be before he turned 10. I was trying freeze dried raw food and that was working well but occasionally he would turn his nose up to it. My only complaint is it is kind of expensive. I could of never afforded it with multiple dogs.”
“DO NOT USE FARMER'S DOG! Our dogs became horribly sick after eating Farmer's Dog food. We even had to take one of our dogs to an emergency vet, where they informed us that they had seen many cases of very sick dogs with a common denominator: Farmer's Dog food.”
“When we got our mini Aussie at about 1 year old she did not like kibble so I ordered Farmer's Dog and she has been on it ever since- going on about 2 years. The portions I give her have kept her at the perfect weight - I've seen so many fat Aussies, I'm thankful I don't have to think about it. Customer service has always been great- they keep track of my order shipment and help out if there is any kind of delay. The only thing I struggle with is keeping the packets frozen when traveling.”
“My dog had been on farmers dog for months with no issues then suddenly stopped eating it she had constant diarrhea and when taken to the vet they said she had inflamed gastrointestines we gave her a bland diet then went back to farmers dog and low and behold she has diarrhea and it’s getting worse today she had bloody diarrhea and we need to schedule ANOTHER vet visit this is not approved by the vet and doesn’t work on every dog.”
“I stopped using Farmers Dog when my usually unpicky dog stopped eating for several days... I also noticed the food was more of a pureed greasy mess. Several boxes showed up partially defrosted and one had leaked during shipping and lost all the packages except one. It's not worth the effort.”
“My King Charles, Biscuit, loves loves the food. Always a picky little guy until we started Farmer’ Dog!
Customer Service was wonderful. A special shoutout to
Elizabeth for all of her help and kindness”
“I'm a professional pet sitter and have been in business for 10+ years. I have a few clients who have fed their dog(s) Farmer's Dog. Some dogs do fine, but many do not. They like the taste, but experience a lot of gastro issues including diarrhea. Recently, I found out that one of my client's senior dog has a serious kidney issue. He was diagnosed with elevated creatinine, or Brun. Brun is caused by too much protein in the diet. After doing a Google search I found that Farmer's Dog contains 50% protein. Most dogs shouldn't get more than 25%. Please talk to your Veterinarian before you decide to feed your dog Farmer's Dog.”
“Couple years using their plan. Two orders ago called and changed to phone in orders as needed, not using plan.. 1st order using this method worked fine. 2nd order I called and ordered 14 pkgs Pork and 14 pkgs beef.. They said they would ship seperately and I agreed. Assuming total cost would be $180.. Well the decided to charge $180. for each 14 pkgs or $360. for 28 pkgs..or $12.86 per pkg.. Phone call to them on 12/19/24, “that’s the way it is “ BUYER BEWARE..”
“My dog is a senior at 15 years old and before he started the Farmers Dog diet, he kept shaking his head.
The vet gave him meds for an ear infection and $350 later, the meds wore off and he started shaking his head again. After being on the food for a while, his hearing improved, he jumps high like he did when he was a puppy. The only sign of him aging is his gray hair…:) I love what this food has done for him!”
“Our little guy passed recently. He was 16 years old and such a sweet soul. I can't recall the date, but we started on The Farmers Dog because Henry had stopped eating his hard food. WOW, did it make a huge difference. My wife and I absolutely believe that this food added years of wonderful quality living for him. We don't think he would've made it to 16 without The Farmer's Dog. When we fed him, he would literally cry in anticipation and lick his bowl clean. The deliveries were always timely, well packed, and we loved the custom portions with his name on the package (nice touch).
After recently moving and retiring, our little guy was starting to have a difficult time and eventually was just not able to walk on his hind legs, though he still loved his food. Right at the point in which he was to cross that rainbow bridge, we received our next shipment. I called The Farmers Dog simply to cancel the subscription. They were so very sympathetic. Their kindness brought tears to my eyes, and they told me they were reversing the charge on the order, asking only that I donate the food to a shelter - which I did.
I told the woman on the phone that I had only called to cancel and not to request a credit. She said she understood, but did not want us to be charged and again expressed her sympathy. I was honestly floored by her kindness, and in the following days we received a card and a beautiful plant expressing condolences and more warm thoughts.
It is rare that you find a product that you feel so strongly about and even more rare to find a company that has unrivaled customer service. We thank you all for your amazing company, and clearly we'd highly recommend The Farmer's Dog to any dog owner. ❤️”
“the food definitely made my dog's poop healthy and no longer constantly soft. She actually loves every flavor but I am writing this review because of the outstanding customer service team. They respond immediately and help and resolve any issue on the spot. Dealt with Nick today on changing my plan a llittle for the upcoming shipment and it was a total pleasure to deal with competent, responsive people. I'll never switch!”
“Good food but they are making unscheduled deliveries and charging me. When I ask why? they have no answers. Its because they are trying to make their numbers before the end go the last quarter and boosting sales! Very unethical!”
