"Our experience with Dog Standards has been outstanding! Our dog absolutely loves it and is more excited for mealtime than we've ever seen. It's so reassuring to know we're feeding him something that not only enhances his life but that he genuinely enjoys. The customer experience has been flawless, selecting meals for our dog was simple, and deliveries always arrive on time. I highly recommend Dog Standards to any dog parent; it's truly been a game changer for both us and our dog!" - Nicole

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost?
Feeding Dog Standards starts at just $1.60/ day. Our meal plans are customized to your dog's age, weight, activity level and more. Therefore, the price of your dog's plan will depend on a combination of these factors. The best way to get an accurate price for your particular dog is to take our 60 second quiz.
How does the meal plan work?
We ask a few key questions about your dog and then our vet nutritionists create a customized meal plan for their unique nutritional needs. Our recipes come pre-portioned for your dog, all you need to do is defrost and serve. You can create your custom meal plan here.
What's the difference between the Recommended Plan and Topper Plan?
The difference between our Recommended Plan and Topper Plan is that with our Recommended Plan we send you 100% of the food that your dog will need for 2 weeks. With the Topper Plan, we will send you 50% portions of the food that your dog will need for 2 weeks. For the Topper Plan, you are required to mix with 50% of your dog's usual food.
Do I have to refrigerate the food?
Once your food arrives you should transfer it to the freezer and place 1-2 packs in the fridge to defrost overnight, based your feeding guideline. You can continue transferring packs from the freezer to the fridge to defrost as often as your dog requires a new pack.
How do I transition my dog?
For dogs who have never tried fresh food before, we recommend a 7-day period for transition from their previous diet to Dog Standards fresh food. Keep in mind that all dogs are different! Your dog might need up to 14 days to transition properly, and some dogs may be able to handle a quicker transition.
