The Farmer's DogReviews of thefarmersdog.com

Tuesday 22nd July. The work lads and I decided to go for a 200 mile round road trip. First to the farm shop. firstly Huge que. We qued up for 20min before seeing people walk threw the que to the bar at the back. Not being overly bothered with the shop we did the same. Wow cracking beer . First larger. Not to my tast. But go with the experience. Next the sech. Ok but nothing special. Third up ipa . Much better . Forth up hawkstone black. Wow what a stout. Gutted I can't buy some to take home as selling out fast. Bacon and egg cob. But pricey but good quality food. So worth the £10. Next up farmers dog. Still a fantastic experience. Even bigger que. But more stout for us. Worth the weight. The experience was fantastic. The shop i did go in this time. Reasonable prices. Hops and chops . Well a big let down . I had hoped for the same quality products I had that day. Every thing I bought was fresh that days package. But that's where the good stops. Bacon realy thin. £8 for a pack and tasteless . Burgers £8 for 4 ok it was high meat contact but all gristle. Every bite I got cartilage and stuff I dent think off. Sausage. Chilli and mustard . Wow ok best Sausage I have ever had. Realy good quality. Pork pie. Ok but nothing special. In all honesty if I go back it will not be for the butchers . But just the experience and the hawkstone black.

The people are polite and responsive, the product is excellent and I am grateful for the increased health and energy in my dog. Highly recommended

This company has really impressed me. They stay in contact with shipments & check on how our dogs are doing. Always there to help. My dog loves their food. He didn’t eat vegs before but he loves them now. The food is so fresh & appealing to the dogs.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Incredible Customer Service! I’ve rarely experienced such kindness and genuine care from a company. The way they handled my situation showed me that they don’t just care about pets—they care about people too. Thank you for your support, patience, and integrity. You’ve earned my respect and future loyalty. Lola and I are grateful! 🐾❤️

If I could give a 0 I would. I don't know how to say other than, know the facts from your own vet nutritionist and DVM before even contemplating giving your furbaby TFD. As many said generated AI responses. When you ask to speak to someone in the nutrition dept you get auto response every time the same and I quote "Our food is nutrient dense that is why the caloric content is so low." Recently my vet became concerned that my boy was losing weight and had been on TFD for almost a year. Mind you, I have been inquiring since he started the food on the calories being provided to him at 699 kcal for a 64.7 pound APT. After the visit with the vet, I again contacted them and got the proverbial response. So I went to Wagmo where I have a wellness plan now and spoke with VetTalk Vet Tech and she looked into my furboy's size, age, etc. Said he should be receiving 1638 kcal to maintain his weight. Then again emailed TFD and asked someone to contact me via email providing all the information VT provided me. Only after I provided them with the information from VT they then replied, "Oh it looks like he needs to be bumped up to 1063 kcal per day." To me this company is after the money not the health and well-being of your furbaby. I then received an email from the DVM from VetTalk who confirmed my baby was on far too little calories to maintain his weight. Mind you I started questioning things the day he got his food and the package looked exactly like the size my girlfriend who has her 15 pound Dach on who is overweight and continued questioning TFD with the same responses but thought well maybe they know better than I do. Trust your gut, consult with a Vet nutritionist/DVM on the correct calorie count needed for your particular situation and furbaby. If your vet does not handle nutrition like my in person vet does, check out Wagmo wellness plan and connect with VetTalk. They have probably saved my boys life. On top of all that, their packaging is poor and 3 orders I received had holes in the boxes and I was told not to use them, and they would send a new box. Everything was still frozen, so why the need to send new? I just wanted them to know they needed to package in a different way. I am done with TFD. I will pray for anyone who uses this food for their furbabies. I also do not want a response to my review from TFD. Thanks! Update: my girlfriend who referred me to the farmers dog just had to take her dog to the emergency veterinary and she was diagnosed with pancreatitis and it cost her $1200!!! She has also now canceled her plan. Be very careful people!

My goodness where do I start? The camaraderie that the staff has with the doggie parents is amazing. I have a lot of contact with Melissa and I love her. She is so good to reach out to me in so many ways to make sure that I am having everything I need for my sweet canine children. There is always satisfaction guaranteed. They received just the amount that they need and farmers dog always make sure that they get plenty of their favorite bags. Turkey is their favorite and if I tell you the truth, don’t tell anyone, I like the turkey better too. I always tell everyone I won’t put anything in my dog’s mouth that I couldn’t put in my own mouth first. Some people think I’m crazy but it’s the truth and I love the turkey and vegetables. Keep the fantastic work going farmers stuff and Melissa. Thank you for helping and doing all that you do for this company.

Finally… a dog food my picky Yorkie actually loves (and thrives on)! I have a 6-year-old Silky/Yorkie Terrier who is the pickiest eater on the planet. Over the years, I’ve tried countless brands, treats, and even breed-specific formulas—only for them to be ignored, cause upset stomachs, or go straight to waste. The only thing he’d consistently eat was a very specific type of ham (which I know isn’t great for him). So when I came across The Farmer’s Dog trial, I figured, why not? The box arrived frozen with simple feeding instructions and convenient packaging. At first, he gave it the usual sniff-and-walk-away. But 20 minutes later… he came back, chose the new food over his regular, and actually ate it! I braced for the usual aftermath: diarrhea, vomiting, goopy eyes, or general belly issues. But to my absolute shock—none of that happened. His stools were solid, his eyes stayed clear, and best of all, he kept eating it day after day. This dog used to need hand-feeding or food served on the floor just to eat. Now? He finishes his meals, has more energy, and is genuinely more playful. After all the trial and error, wasted money, and stomach issues, I can confidently say The Farmer’s Dog is the only food that’s worked. No tummy troubles, no weird ingredients—just real food he enjoys and that I can feel good about feeding him. Thank you, Farmer’s Dog, for finally giving my picky pup something healthy he actually loves.

We are now three shipments into Lily eating the farmers dog. It was a very good decision to have made for her. She is happier has more energy and really gets excited and does the food dance before I feed her. She is happier and when Lily is happy, my world is all in order. I have had a couple of acquaintances comment on the price of the food.. the way I look at it is the price is worth it for the fact that I haven’t had to take her to the vet for any intestinal issues since I started her on this food. That makes it more than worthwhile. This is a great choice and you couldn’t do a better thing for your four legged babies. One of the best decisions I have made.
