Bella was on Farmers Dog previously and she 100% enjoyed Golden Child more-as did we for her, it looks and smells fresh! Also the PB sauce was an added bonus and knowing there is extra nutritional value in the sauce is amazing.

Last night when Kane was finished eating he did a full on celebration! Literally ate every spec and went back to double check that everything was gone. Kane typically picks around veggies and spits them out, but he went right for these ones

Undoubtedly my dog prefers this food over his kibble. He usually grazes throughout the day and devoured this food in minutes!! If not seconds! I’m not sure how he would ever go back to normal food again!

Sofia R.

My dogs loved the food! It was a big hit with both of them. With each meal that I fed, I could see their enthusiasm get bigger and bigger, waiting impatiently while I prepared their bowls, possibly drooling already.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How do I get started with Golden Child?

Take the quiz to get your customized meal plan. Enter your dog's breed, weight, age, and activity level, and we build a personalized plan with the right ingredients, portions, and even a functional wellness drizzle. Your first box ships with everything you need, including our Golden Service guide and transition tips to help seamlessly switch your dog to Golden Child meals.

What is the difference between Golden Child's mains and drizzles?

A main is the base of every bowl: a chef-developed, vet-formulated entree made from human-grade beef or chicken as well as flash-frozen vegetables to deliver complete, balanced nutrition. A drizzle is a topper that finishes the bowl with flavor, variety, and targeted wellness support. Together, they make a 5-star bowl.

How much Golden Child should I feed my dog each day?

Each dog is different. When you sign up, you'll take a quick quiz about your pup. We use that to build a personalized feeding plan with portion recommendations based on their weight, breed, age, activity level, and goals. No guesswork, just science.

Does Golden Child meet AAFCO complete and balanced standards?

Absolutely. Every Golden Child meal is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for their intended life stage. That means complete and balanced nutrition in every bowl.

How is our food packaged and shipped?

Golden Child mains and drizzles are shipped straight to your doorstep. We pack every order with dry ice and insulated packaging to keep meals frozen during transit. Meals arrive cold, safe, and ready for the freezer, in pre-portioned, resealable bags for easy serving.

What results can I expect after switching to Golden Child?

You may see improved stools in ~4 days, a shinier coat in 2–4 weeks, healthier weight in 4–8 weeks, and sustained energy in 1–3 weeks. Results vary by dog. Fresh-frozen food is highly digestible, so more nutrients are absorbed from each portion.
