"Bella was on Farmer's Dog previously and she 100% enjoyed Golden Child more—as did we for her. It looks and smells fresh! The PB sauce was an added bonus and knowing there is extra nutritional value in it is amazing."
Chris S.
"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. He typically picks around veggies and spits them out, but he went right for these."
Ruby B.
"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
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, Mains 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.
A Main is the base of every bowl: a chef-developed, veterinarian-formulated entree made from human-grade beef or chicken and flash-frozen vegetables, delivering 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.
When you sign up, you'll complete a short quiz about your dog. We use information such as their weight, activity level, and dietary needs to calculate a personalized feeding plan and portion recommendations based on the Main you select. If you ever feel like your dog needs a little more or less food, our Concierge Team is always happy to help you adjust their plan.
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, every single bowl. Take the quiz to find the right formula for your dog's current life stage.
Golden Child Mains and Drizzles are shipped straight to your doorstep. We pack every order with dry ice and insulated packaging to keep your pup's meals frozen solid during transit. Your Golden Child Mains arrive cold, safe, and ready for the freezer. They are packaged in an easy-to-open, resealable bag, making it easier to serve the right amount and simplify your dog’s daily feeding routine.
Results vary by dog, but some owners notice improvements in stool quality, coat condition, and energy over time. A consistent, complete and balanced diet supports these changes, though timing will differ for each dog.
