Picky is an understatement?

Sniffs it, walks away.
Holds out for your dinner.
Bags of food they won’t touch.

Picky dogs aren’t being difficult. They want food that smells and tastes like food.

Why it happens

Why do some dogs refuse their food?

Smell, texture and boredom all play a part, and so does how their stomach feels. Highly processed kibble can smell and taste the same every day. A sudden refusal can also be a health sign, so check with your vet if your dog stops eating altogether.

★★★★★Aero is a very picky, food-unmotivated dog, but he loves Get Joy. While he turns his nose up at mozzarella cheese, Get Joy is his go-to!

Picky-dog tip: start with a small scoop on top and add a splash of warm water. The aroma does the convincing.

Feed at set times and pick the bowl up after 20 minutes. Skip the table scraps while you switch.

Still deciding?

Questions dog companions ask

What do you feed a dog that won’t eat dog food?

Try food that smells and tastes like real food. Freeze Dried Raw made with meat and organs is naturally aromatic, and adding warm water makes it richer. Start with a scoop on top of their usual food. If your dog refuses all food for more than a day, call your vet.

What if my dog still won’t eat it?

You’re covered by our Clean-Bowl Promise. Before you give up, try warm water for aroma, try the other protein, and serve it as a topper first.

Should I serve it dry or with water?

Both work. Dry is crunchy, like a treat. Warm water rehydrates it into a soft, savory meal that many picky dogs prefer. Use about equal parts water to food and let it sit for a minute.

Topper or full meal?

Toppers are a great start for picky dogs: one scoop on their usual food adds flavor and gut support. You can move to a full bowl anytime in your account.

Beef or chicken for a picky dog?

Pick the protein they already love. Many picky dogs do best rotating, so you can switch recipes between deliveries.

How long does a bag last?

It depends on your dog’s size and whether you serve a full meal or a topper. The plan builder sizes the delivery so food doesn’t pile up, and you can change the schedule anytime.

How does Auto-Ship work?

Your first order is 50% off, then every delivery is 10% off. Freeze Dried Raw ships every 4 weeks by default, or every 6 weeks if you prefer. Skip, pause, change or cancel online anytime, with no phone call needed.
