Most dog food is built around a format. Ours is built around the gut, because gut health drives whole-body health.

Gut health 101

Why does gut health matter so much?

About 70% of your dog’s immune system resides in the gut, so gut health shapes everything from digestion to skin and energy.

What makes Get Joy different?

Postbiotic

Yeast culture metabolites

The compounds that do the work: support a healthy gut lining, everyday immunity and firmer stools.

Questions dog companions ask

What’s the best dog food for a sensitive stomach?

A food built around the gut, not just the ingredient list: real, minimally processed protein, fiber that feeds good bacteria, and live probiotics. Get Joy Freeze Dried Raw Meals have all three built in with Belly Biotics™, our blend of prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics. Switch gradually over 7–10 days. If your dog has ongoing digestive issues, check in with your vet.

Why is my dog’s poop always soft?

Common reasons include sudden food changes, rich table scraps, stress, and diets that are hard for your dog to digest. A steady, gut-supportive routine often helps poops firm up. If soft stool lasts more than a couple of days, or comes with blood, vomiting or low energy, call your vet.

How fast will I see a difference?

Most dogs take 7–10 days to transition. Many dog parents notice changes in digestion during the first month, with skin, coat and energy following over the next few months. Every dog is different, so give the new routine time and change one thing at a time.

Do I switch all at once?

No. Mix Get Joy into their current food: about 25% for the first few days, then 50%, then 75%, then 100% over 7–10 days. A little wobble in week one is normal. You can also keep Get Joy as a topper and never fully switch.

What are prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics?

Prebiotics are fibers that feed good gut bacteria. Probiotics are the good bacteria themselves. Postbiotics are the beneficial compounds those bacteria produce. Get Joy’s Belly Biotics™ combines all three in every bowl of Freeze Dried Raw: chicory root inulin, 5 probiotic strains at 3 billion CFU per pound, and a postbiotic yeast culture.

Is freeze dried raw safe?

Get Joy is freeze dried at no more than 125°F in an SQF-certified facility, with a natural, probiotic-powered safety step and no HPP. Every batch is third-party tested. Handle it like any raw food: wash hands and bowls after serving.

Can I use it as a topper?

Yes. A scoop on top of your dog’s usual food adds flavor and gut support without a full switch. Choose “Topper” in the plan builder and we’ll size the plan for you.

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.
