I started my dog with Farmers Dog in June of 2024. My dog was diagnosed with cancer in Feb 2024. I wanted to find a more healthy diet for him. Today I took my Dog to the Vet and they were very concerned with his rapid weight loss over the last few months and the shape his coat was in (not due to his current illness). I told the vet we had switched to the Farmers Dog. My vet explained that my dog being normally 80+- pounds would need roughly 1700 calories a day to maintain his current healthy weight. All this information was given to the farmers dog so they could create a meal plan specifically designed for my dog. When I contacted The Farmers Dog to verify how many calories my wouldn't need as many calories. Clearly the science behind this theory is lacking considering regardless of "nutrition" all animals still need a specific number of calories just to maintain a normal life. Then they said he was on a "trail" meal plan and could be adjusted. The Famers dog never once notified or suggest my dog was on a "trial" meal plan, the suggestion of that is just Ludacris. It honestly just sounded like a lie. Why would the company not inform you when you sign up of this "trail" plan. Tons of peer reviewed research exist on the caloric intake of dogs. It makes zero sense to take a normal caloric intake and reduce that in half without any explanation other than they are cutting corners by using less food and charging as if they were not. As they advertise/guarantee I expected to receive an adequate amount of food for my dog according to the price I paid. This false advertisement and shady business practices are appalling. How many dogs under the care of this company are starving right now? If this was done to humans it would be brought to light in an instant.
