National Dog Day is a chance to celebrate the dogs who are part of everything our families do. They’re there for the morning walks, backyard games, weekend adventures, and the busy days spent running from one activity to the next. And while August 26 is a good excuse to give them a little extra attention, caring for a dog is really about the choices we make for them every day—including what goes into their bowl.
For The Farmer’s Dog, that everyday routine starts with real food. The Farmer’s Dog offers freshly made, human-grade food with plans built around each dog’s individual needs, making thoughtful nutrition easier to fit into everyday family life
The Farmer’s Dog takes a different approach to a familiar part of dog ownership: mealtime.
Its food is freshly made using whole meats and vegetables, gently cooked at relatively low temperatures, and quickly frozen for delivery. The result is minimally processed food that meets human-grade quality and safety standards.
The recipes are developed by On-Staff Board Certified Veterinary Nutritionists® to be complete and balanced, bringing veterinary nutrition expertise to something dogs experience every single day—their meals.
And instead of leaving dog owners to figure out exactly how much food belongs in the bowl, The Farmer’s Dog builds each plan around the individual dog

Dogs have different nutritional needs, which is why The Farmer’s Dog considers details like age, breed, size, weight, activity level, and more when creating each plan.
Meals arrive in pre-portioned packs made and labeled for your dog, helping take some of the guesswork out of portioning. The food is delivered frozen for convenience, so you can store the packs in your freezer and move them to the refrigerator as needed.
It’s an approach designed to combine thoughtful nutrition with the practicality dog owners need in their everyday routines.
The service is flexible, too. As your dog’s needs change, their plan can change along with them. And if you need help along the way, The Farmer’s Dog provides 24/7 customer support from real people who are available by phone, text, and email
Quality and safety are central to The Farmer’s Dog approach. Its freshly made food uses human-grade ingredients and is AAFCO complete and balanced. Each batch is also checked to ensure it’s safe for dogs to eat.
The food is gently cooked rather than heavily processed, helping retain the natural nutrients and moisture found in its ingredients. The Farmer’s Dog’s fresh food is also highly digestible, giving dog owners another reason to take a closer look at what “fresh” can mean at mealtime.
Ultimately, it’s about making it easier for dog owners to feel confident about one of the most important decisions they make for their dogs every day.

For active families, dogs are often right in the middle of the action. They join us on walks, tag along on adventures, play in the backyard, and are waiting at the door after a long day of school, work, practices, and workouts.
National Dog Day is a chance to give them a little extra attention, but doing your best for your dog happens in those everyday moments. That includes the walks, playtime, adventures, time together, and the meals you put in their bowl.
This August 26, celebrate everything your dog brings to your family—and consider bringing something fresh to one of the routines you share every day.
