I had been pushing the idea of getting a dog on my husband for a while, and, in order to get him to finally cave, I did a lot of research to show him how serious I was about expanding our family. Not only was I applying for pre-approval to just about every rescue in the tristate area, but I was also researching every dog food out there. I am a type-A, organized planner, so I wanted to have everything prepared once we found our perfect pup and were ready to adopt. When Charlie came into our lives last November (we rescued him from Puerto Rico through Safe and Sound Satos—more on that here), the love was instantaneous. Personally, I’m so grateful to have found The Farmer’s Dog and their fresh, healthy, preportioned recipes. As a food-driven dog, Charlie goes wild for treats and at mealtime, but there’s nothing else out there that excites him as much as his meals from The Farmer’s Dog. This is why I especially love what The Farmer’s Dog does: They worked with top vets to create simple but balanced and delicious meals that are safe enough for humans to eat. It’s clear the second you open the package that it is made with fresh ingredients—you can see and smell them! It’s easy to get started, too: Just pick your pup’s plan, which start at less than $3 per day, and the meals are delivered to your home.
