what actually happens after you sign up for a fresh dog food subscription

I work at The Farmer's Dog so I can walk you through it.

You answer questions about your dog — age, weight, breed, activity level, body condition, spay/neuter status — and the plan gets built around their specific daily caloric needs. Not a range. An actual number for that dog.

Food arrives frozen in pre-portioned packs. You move a pack to the fridge the night before, it's ready by morning. Once thawed it keeps four days in the fridge. Two hour rule once it's out, same as your own food.

You can go full fresh, mix with kibble, or just use the DIY nutrient mix if you want to home cook. Portions adjust anytime through your account as your dog's needs change.

That's basically it.
