Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games kzbin.infoUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!

[@elainecollins9565]

I checked this book kzbin.infoUgkxSw1k29V8f0aNwyGI6qRGYJc3E4Y4Eoxy out at the library - read it cover to cover - and then decided to purchase it, so i can refer to it as needed. This provides additional ways to train in addition to the two obedience classes my sicx month old belgian malinois has already attended. Despite having dogs my whole life, i have been voraiciously reading dog training and psychology books lately given my little "maligator" has a mind of her own (extremely smart but obstinate) , and this one ranks among the best.

My rescued lab mix ate chicken most of her life (this was when I was young and less educated). She developed a severe allergy to chicken and the vet pulled all poultry around age 11.5. She had lost 15lbs and I thought she was going to die. I did hundreds of hours of research on how to make my own dog food for her and she is still here at age 14 and has gained all her weight back. Now that she is nearing the end of her life, due to age, I am continuing my educational journey. Thank you for all of your time and sharing so much with us. 🙏🏻❤️

We feed Farmer’s Dog, one package a day, half in the morning, half in the evening. We don’t cut the bag in half like you did. We cut the top and then pinch the food in the bag to split it. This makes it easy to empty only half in the dog’s bowl and leaves you half the back to fold over and clip to seal it until evening. It doesn’t prevent all leakage but with a folder paper towel in the bottom the container Farmer’s Dog sends will usually last the whole 3 week cycle. I’m curious why you didn’t address the lack of grain in both products. There are almost no vets not recommending a grain free diet due to the heart conditions that appear to be caused by a lack of grain in the dog’s diet. We add cooked barley to our dog’s food to make up for this shortcoming.

Just ordered Goliath's first box of Farmer's Dog. I can't wait! I have been thinking about it for a while, and this video just shared all the answers I was looking for. Thanks!

[@lindajonesartist]

We used The Farmer's Dog DIY Nutrient mix to home cook fresh food for several months, and it was about a quarter less expensive (including the price of buying foods from the grocery store) than their regular dog food, and I was able to use organic ingredients. It would probably be even cheaper if you aren't using organic ingredients. It does mean having to cook, but their recipes are easy to follow and don't require any difficult to buy ingredients. The downside is that one of my dogs had problems with how high the carbs were in their recipes, so we had to cancel and put her on a lower carb dog food. When I contacted them, they said that they were considering creating lower carb recipes, and I'd love it if others let them know that they're interested in lower carb dog food.

[@celestialtay]

question, what were the signs that you knew the carbs were a problem?

[@haleygarner4667]

Please review Origen regional kibble. I’ve actually been doing this for the last year combining myollie and Origen puppy kibble and now Origen regional. I tried going fully raw but my dog doesn’t seem to do well with full raw so went back to lightly cooked myollie. Thanks for all you do!

LOVED this helpful video. Wanted to add: My bro-in-law's dog's teeth were having issues (loose, etc). His vet suggested adding dry kibble to help with those issues and it did. He always fed his dog super high qual soft food. So I thought you might like to look into that and do a spec video... espec since Ollie offers that. Thanks!

Farmers dog now comes with a measurable reusable high quality container now! I go ahead and portion it out based on the lines in the container when I open a new bag (my dog is small so only eats a 1/4 a day.

[@hermanminister5217]

Does anyone else have misgivings about very small quantity of food contained in each portion? Our two smallish dogs love the Farmer's Dog food, but it looks like such a tiny portion in their bowls, and takes them around 30 seconds to eat. FD will tell you that this is because their food is 'nutrient-rich', but I worry that my dogs will still feel hungry after they've eaten, because there's no bulk (what used to be called 'roughage') to this food. (I've noticed that the actual portion size is absolutely NOTHING LIKE the huge portion shown in the FD television ads!) So does anyone else feel there's not enough bulk in these foods to fill up your dog, or am I worrying unnecessarily?

[@JameGoFast]

have u weighed each pack you get?

[@sherryanimallover7506]

​@JameGoFast I totally agree my dog has never acted still hungry before until I try these small portions. I have had lots of dogs over the years and none of them would have been satisfied on such small portions it's not just you. ❤️🇺🇸❄️😇🐕😇❄️🇺🇸❤️

[@hermanminister5217]

@@JameGoFast I'm not sure what weighing the packs would tell me. My dogs are receiving the amount of food calculated for them by FD - it just seems like so little food each portion.

[@hermanminister5217]

@@treasuretrovel3816 You write: "If they maintain their weight then the recommended portion sizing is right for your dog." But if you read my post I'm not talking about the nutritive value of the portions, I'm concerned at the small SIZE of them - their lack of bulk. No matter how well-balanced are the portions, if my dogs are still hungry after they've eaten because they aren't satiated, then they'll be looking for alternative food sources all day. You further claim that making the food yourself at home and adding calcium vitamin/mineral powder "gives the owner complete control over the quality of the meat." This sounds terribly naive. Unless you're raising cattle or chickens on your own farm and killing and processing them yourself, you have no control whatsoever over the quality of the meat. American food quality regulation is extremely lax compared to other developed countries - for both pet and human food. Quality control usually consists of companies cutting whatever corners they want, followed by people getting sick (or dying), followed by a limited recall, followed by...well, business as usual. Also, you cannot know what's going into the vitamin/mineral powder, because like all US vitamin and mineral supplements, that stuff isn't regulated either. It doesn't have to comply with any FDA standard; and we all know what a terrific job the food and drug industry does of regulating itself.

My mom's dog used to eat her food in about 20 seconds. I use a lick mat for The Farmer's Dog food. It typically takes her 5-10 minutes to eat now. This has helped tremendously.

Hello, I appreciate your informative videos! I just received my first box of Ollie, I have the chicken, turkey, pork, and lamb recipes. My question is, is it okay to swap proteins daily? Should I change my subscription to not have so many different proteins?

[@redhatpenguin1241]

Not a nutritionalist but I’ve had a biology level nutrition class (A in the class if it matters to you). Based on what I learned for humans and applying it to dogs: diversity of protein types/sources is a GREAT THING. It will allow your dog to have a wider range of the different amino acids. In short: this makes it easier/more efficient on your dogs body to build/repair/maintain. It also may help your dog not get bored of the same flavor.

[@almadeweese9226]

Ollie helped my dog so much, he is part Maltese and was getting bad allergies and orange around the face and with Ollie it’s cleared up and he’s like a new puppy! 10 years old now and still active.. i did try farmers dog also very good, it was the packaging for me that i didn’t like. So. Both great lol

[@cq1030]

My 2 year old mini Aussie has been eating Ollie for about 8 months now. We started with the mixed meal plan. She loved it right away, not much difficulty with transition (we followed steps provided). Around the holidays a lot of supply issues started to occur. The baked food was no longer available so Ollie was nice and switched to fully fresh food for same price. Once the baked option became available we decided to just stick with the fresh food. She rotates between all the flavor options. She is happy and healthy and loves meal time. Cost is definitely expensive but y’all know how it is that’s our child so we make the sacrifice so we can have as much time with her as possible

[@susanwingblade1799]

I had my Silky Terrier skin tested for allergies at Michigan State U. vet clinic with a dermatologist. Skin testing in humans and dogs is usually considered the "gold standard." My dog was definitely allergic to some trees, grass, dust and mold. I gave him allergy shots from the special mixture of serum made up at MSU. It takes a while. After about a year, I could see a marked difference in the scratching. It was much better, almost gone. This is just my experience. I hope this is helpful!

[@Tailionis]

My dogs have been on mutiple different foods since puppies and have never needed a food transition, aside from enjoying the new taste. I think the problem is we keep our pets on one diet and never let them try new things. It's important to always give them different foods just like us humans. They aren't meant to eat just one type of food.

[@SteffaniSzczuka]

When I first got my dog baby (Poochon) he did great no problems on Kibble. When I switched to adult food he started having stomach upsets. So I changed to fresh pet. I think he got food poisoning or salmonella. Which distressed me a lot. I just started him on Farmer’s Dog slowly this week. He loves it. But time will tell. But no upset tummy.

[@GentiluomoStraniero]

I have a 3 year old gsd who's GI was impacted by oral tick/flea med. The vet had him on prescription high fiber canned food and kibble. We also provided forti flora. This was after two rounds of metro and several stool and blood tests came back normal. The bloody stool always came back. I stabilized him with pectalin and am transitioning to Ollie. He's already below the recommended pectalin dose but friday, Koa will be on 100% Ollie. I will then pull a pill to reduce the dose of pectalin. Let's see if this does the trick. I am avoiding hydrolyzed foods. So far, his energy levels are increasing and he seems to be getting what he needs. His weight is increasing to his ideal weight of 78lbs.

[@julesl6910]

If you're having issues with loose stools, I always recommend Fresh Pet. There's just no comparison. It's not that their food is the best or most nutritious, so I wouldn't say only feed your dog Fresh Pet. But I've noticed many times as soon as you get a dog on Fresh Pet their stools are picture perfect, dark and compact. I don't know what they figured out at the company but it's impressive. There isn't any transitional period either as the food is hydrated / fresh, it won't dehydrate a dog like kibble.

[@girlygirl1890]

@@zander1971shorty Wow. It's a shame that you feel that if your dog is "hungry", that he is Healthy. That is 100% NOT true. Hunger does NOT equate to being healthy and they are not related at all. What goes for dogs, go for people as well. When ANY living being is healthy, this means they are getting the PROPER NUTRIENTS that the body needs to be healthy. When a dog is HUNGRY, it means it is NOT getting enough food to make them feel satiated. SO, if YOU as a child had parents that raised you saying "A hungry child is a healthy child", then you would be absolutely miserable growing up. To keep you hungry, then have the nerve to say THAT"S what's keeping you healthy? Do you know how you felt as a child growing up, and you felt hungry at times? Actually your stomach would hurt at times from it. You felt miserable. I hope you are a decent enough human being to NOT REALLY feel that you should have your dog hungry. And I certainly hope you don't have kids as well, and do for them the same. As an adult, by now, you know what that would feel like. And if you are a decent human being, you would would never stoop that low, trying to convince yourself that that is proper thinking. Let's all be responsible pet owners and good humans and treat our dogs how ***WE*** would want to be treated. They deserve it. This is coming from someone who has a vet as a relative, so trust me...I know what I'm saying is true. Take care.

Thank you so much for your video! Wonderful. I have been doing the Farmer's Dog DIY for about 3 months. Previously, I home cooked for my Gus on my own since 2015. He is 11. I have to admit, I was not used to (or comfortable) with feeding him carrots and sweet potatoes all the time, and white rice. Their DIY recipes, at least for turkey, don't have much variety. I still don't know why white rice is the preferred grain and not brown. They suggest to not substitute ingredients. When I cooked for him using my recipes, I would usually rotate 3 different veggies every 3 weeks (ex. broccoli, zucchini,, kale then next cook, green beans, spinach, cucumbers). So, really not used to there not being a lot of variety to work with on the Farmer's DIY. I guess jury is still out, for me at least. Gus is having a blast.

We have been using Farmer’s Dog fresh food for close to two years now and are really happy with it.

[@itsmedandan25]

I’ve used Farmers Dog for the last 2 years with my frenchie. She absolutely loves it!!!! I rotate between meats as well and I do see a big difference in her coat and muscle. Everyone says she looks very healthy :)

[@scothughes6108]

We do the Farmer’s Dog DIY, rotating between beef, chicken, and pork. (The odor of ground turkey cooking makes me gag.) DIY is about half the cost (or less) of their ready to eat, so that saves some serious money! Yes, it takes time, but only about 90 minutes if you’re organized. I feed straight FD DIY, no kibble split. It runs about $2 or so per day, so quite affordable. Of course my little Maximilian (a Pom-Chi) weighs less than 8 lbs. And when I occasionally don’t have time to cook, I feed him Ollie. FD isn’t sold in stores, but fortunately Ollie is sold at Petco. Since they are essentially the same thing, fresh food gently cooked, Maxi can switch occasionally without any digestive upset. 😊 A one pound pack of Ollie costs $11 and lasts him 2 days, so that’s $5.50 per day. More than double DIY!

I just tried to order Ollie and it said they don’t serve under 3 months old 😢

[@CreamyJalapeno]

Does Ollie come packaged in the proper portions? My dog loves Farmer's Dog food but she's little so each pack contains 8 servings! I take each pack and weigh it then divide by 8. I have to weigh her food each time I feed her which is fine but sometimes I wish I didn't have to.

Hi Rachel! Thanks for your video. Any chance you can review Spot & Tango “unkibble.” On a separate note. Please please please do a video on car sickness. My 5 month old pup is salivating and vomiting when we take her on drives. Working with vet, but any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! 🐶👋✨

[@Reanmii_official]

My poodle puppy has been eating Ollie since March and all of sudden just doesn’t eat it AT ALL! It’s so annoying since I already paid the money for it but she will starve just not to eat the Ollie. Idk how or what to switch her to now.

[@gloriasueb]

I watched this video because I am planning to switch over to a raw based diet for my dogs. The farmer's dog offers venison, which I really like for dogs. I get some from my neighbors who hunt but would like a more consistent source. I did have to smile at the care you take for switching your dogs to a different food. My dogs are actual farm dogs and you never know from day-to-day what they get into to eat, from horse manure to some long-dead roadkill that even the vultures left. But I did enjoy this review and found the information in it useful.

[@mariakucyna4008]

Farmer's dog venison? They don't have that option?

[@saygraceandpassthebiscuits429]

I have a brand new Yorkie who will only reach 2.2 to 2.5 lbs. I’m looking at either Farmers Dog or Ollie with Stella and Chewy Kibble. Could you please review this option comparing to Ollie kibble too?

[@RAINMAN309]

Is Kibbles and bits good?

[@lindanewman5470]

My 5 month old puppy eats a mix of The Farmers Dog and Royal Canin puppy kibble. She lives both.

[@DomesticAnimo]

Can you please review or talk about Orijen and or Arcana? They are owned by the same company to my knowledge :). My cats and dogs are on this and I add toppers when I can.

[@GDaShef]

I have a Cane Corso and I don’t think neither food has enough protein in it to maintain a healthy diet for him. Am I wrong?

[@bettygitzke4131]

Thank you so much, you answered every question I was wanting.

[@johnm9581]

Rachel, what do u think of fresh pet food?

[@AliceLyles-y7y]

Can you recommend another fresh food company. Mable my puppy which is a Cockapoo 6 months and 14 pounds. She is not spayed yet. We was using Ollie’s and Farmer’s dog. She still eats Ollie’s food but will not eat Farmer’s Dog since the sample box. We’re still planning on using Ollie’s

[@getwithcandy]

Great video I was wondering about this food. Would you be willing to review of Kiwi Kitchen Freeze dried Raw?

[@mrndvasquez]

Is it good to alternate both brands for variety

[@TeamSchoonhoven2020]

We have used the farmers do for 3 years now and our dogs are the healthiest they can ever be. No issues at all and they love it

[@reviews2you]

I'm disappointed you didn't give a favorite by the end of it. Do you feed either to your pack regularly, if not what do you feed?

[@sophie47448]

We use Farmers Dog for our Sophie after using Dr. Marty’s raw kibble. Our vet had a fit about feeding raw food. Had many concerns about it so we switched to FD. I can’t say enough about how convenient it is for us as Sophie’s parents but after a month she is showing signs of not wanting to eat. So now I am not sure what to do. She loved Dr. Marty’s food but now I am afraid of how harmful it could be to her. So the plot thickens and we go on a search for something she likes but is healthy for her. Thank you for this video.

[@MichaelOshinsMom]

Have you tried Dr.Marty's freeze dried raw and if so, what is your review on that?

[@alexandranavarrogonzalez648]

Thank you for your posts, I have so many questions. My soft wheaton terrier has skin and food allergies. I don’t feel like the vets we’ve encountered, don’t truly have answers. Also, what are your thoughts on supplements? Thank you!

[@helenchant8860]

We’re in Canada and this food isn’t available here. Is there something similar that I could buy here that you’d recommend? Thank you.

[@bethlovesdogs]

? Rachel, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Is it ok to just use organic canned pumpkin instead of the powder? I am guessing because it's shelf stable/convenient? thx

[@wendyhinckly7044]

I have been feeding my dog a vet approved homemade dog food for about 2 months and he LOVES it. It is far cheaper and there is no need to compare ingredients or packaging, etc... because there isn't any. It is VERY easy to do as well.

[@wendyhinckly7044]

@Marie Marie here are a couple of links. I have used both recipes and they are both easy and good for your dog. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2mvpHSgirBsrNE

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

I'm just baffled as to which home made Recipe to make. Pros and cons on some. ugh

[@nancyelander5343]

I like the Ollie. The storage is great, between the little case that I can store his food in and the size of the packages. I didn’t know that I should add vitamins, etc. please advise what would be a good additive.

[@JulieBOkami]

You can cancel your Ollie subscription on the website now.

[@cynthiamccallum3336]

My Mini-Bernedoodle boy just turned 1 and has eaten Nutisource small- medium puppy food since he was weaned. We add Stella and Chewy freeze dried raw dinner patties (add water)…. He’s 1 now and unsure if we need to advance his diet- and to what? Thank you for any advice!

[@gabrielasanchez5574]

Excellent video thank you so much! Can you talk about Ollie’s kibble option? Thanks

[@lyssajane6]

I’d be curious to know if you have heard of or have any info on the Jinx kibble?

[@lw3371]

I’d be interested in her thoughts as well!

[@a.d.c7941]

Whats better Ollie or Carna4??
