Garbage!! Our blue heeler that eats couches would not touch it...don't buy it!! We tried everything to get him to eat it... he wouldn't go near his bowl. This is just another idiot trying to make money at our pets' expense.

I was intrigued with the initial information about the quality of the product. I tried to order one bag to test it and then was BOMBARDED by their BLAST campaign of add this, try more bags, try another product. This fast and furious violent checkout process left me agitated and then the checkout amount was for more than I wanted and had to have customer service take some items off as there was no way to remove them on my end. I was left feeling violated and overwhelmed by the horrible checkout experience. It left such a bad feeling that I was not surprised when the pet food arrived and not only would my cat not eat it, neither would the colony of feral cats across the street. At least they let me return it but I am still waiting for the refund. I would not recommend this product as the company is top heavy in high pressure sales people who need a reality check!!! This company needs to get rid of their high pressure sales staff and just try honesty and courtesy.

My dog is a senior dog and very picky. I ordered Dr. Marty's in the hope that he would like it. I crumbled a few pieces in his regular food to get him started. He ate quite a bit of his food for a change; so I guess he liked the flavor. HOWEVER, within 30 minutes he threw up all over the floor. There couldn't have been anything left in him. So, the food is going in the trash. Be warned; it's an expensive experiment for your dog.

I purchased a sample bag of Dr. Marty's freeze dried dog food for my dog. My dog came down with a very severe case of diarrhea and required staying at our Vet's hospital on IVs & doing X-rays for 24 hours! Costing us over $1300.00 dollars!

Wish I read reviews before I ordered from them on line. Worst customer service ever. I have 2 Chihuahua mixes and have tried almost every food on the market. One of my dogs has allergies that really affect his quality of life, skin itching, licking and hives. Would do anything for my dogs and when he responded positively to Dr. Marty's, that was all I was gonna buy. Went to the website. Started a subscription to be sent to monthly, I couldn't have been happier. But then for the next 9 months, EVERY MONTH, there was an issue. They would send me an email that there was a problem with my payment, I would call and they would have me give them another form of payment. There would be something wrong with that payment the very next day.
Customer service when you called would just take more forms of payment. Never really resolved issue. So, now they had 4 or 5 of my credit card numbers and I still couldn't get the food. Was told twice to cancel & restart subscription, this didn't even help. Finally, just called and canceled subscription. Very disappointed that they really DON'T CARE. Hope no one ever uses website.

Every shipment went to wrong address. Fortunately, there is photo evidence from their delivery service to prove my claim -- 3x in a row my shipment has ended up at a different address. For the amount of money this food costs, this is completely unacceptable. They just keep reshipping the order and it never gets here. Offering a reshipment is pointless if you can't guarantee it's going to get here. A refund is obvious but the company should be doing better, especially for the high cost of the food and the reputation of Dr. Marty himself.

I have two large dogs. 65 and 75 pounds. To replace 1/4 cup for each the cost was over $60 a month. We tried to sustain this cost but can't do it. I tried to see if we could lower the costs, customer service said we had the best price, really tried to do the 'right' thing by our dogs. Such a shame.

My dogs absolutely love this food.. but the customer service is awful. They constantly deliver to the wrong address and then weeks go by before they respond to any inquiries on your delivery. You have to chase them for service. It’s unfortunate but it’s that bad so beware not to order online from their site.

I just today 12/06/2024 watched the Video regarding his pet food products for cats. I just read that he is deceased. How can these videos legally be advertised. Is it now his family's business? His video I think should be updated.

The food is amazing, but I can’t recommend their service. Customer service has very little they can do if there’s a delivery problem, and will not contact the carrier to resolve it. My dog is now suffering from having to change her diet again. 14 days ago I placed an order, it’s still not here, tracking says allow 48 hours to process, for over a week after the original misdelivery on the 15th of this month, my dog is 15 years old and after improving dramatically from this diet, she is now rapidly going downhill. It’s over $50 a bag total cost at the local stores, one bag lasts 4-6 days. I’m in disbelief that nobody at Dr Marty will help me resolve this issue. I have two miracle stories, one a cat, and my dog. Both are in going in the wrong direction now, I had to take my dog to the vet as a result of suddenly having to change her diet, to a much less quality food.
It’s such an easy issue to resolve so I don’t understand why they would allow this to happen. It feels like they really don’t care about my dog's health. My trust in them has dropped considerably. For me it’s hard to say it’s worth the risk of trusting this company with my dog's healthy diet. It’s like buying a super car, that came with used flat tires and a fuel tank full of water. I’ve waited 2 weeks, and they still won’t call me, or their carrier. Their customer service doesn’t even know who the carrier is, they given me several different incorrect stories and phone numbers that were supposed to be the carrier. None of the phone numbers provided are the carrier, which if I could just speak to, this issue would get resolved in less than 1 minute, so it does not make sense that they won’t help me resolve the issue.
I listed my address with the exact location on line 2 of the address, but they do not provide that part to the carrier. It’s just unbelievable! It is a very high end expensive product, but it’s like words that are not supported by actions, pointless, meaningless, and potentially harmful. It’s not good to keep changing a very elderly dog's diet, and they know that!

A year ago, I started my dog on Dr. Marty dog food. The ad said that it would help with the itchiness and his coat. However, this is not true. When I called the company, they said that I should put them on one of their supplements. The dog food is $100 a month. The supplement is another $42 a month. They do have some guarantees, but I’m not willing to sell out more money to find this out. There’s so many really good dog foods out there. I think I’ll try another brand.

I was loving Dr. Marty's freeze dried food for dogs and cats! My 2 dogs and 1 cat were loving it too. I was continuously buying this for over a year and it was costing us $88.70 for 3 bags and now it would be costing us 170.63 for 3 bags! That is ridiculous! I will not spend that much for 3 16 Oz bags. I am bummed about this and I really hope this price to go down.

The food wasn’t bad. After a few days my dogs refused to eat it. It stunk. It was horrible, but we did try the probiotic powder as well. I gave my daughter the leftover food for her dogs. Our issues. The powder it didn’t do anything. Almost $100 and now to send it back we have to pay to do that and that’s not right. If it’s 90 days moneyback guaranteed you should own up to it and you should pay the shipping. Customers shouldn’t have to pay to ship back your product that don’t work that you guarantee.

I have 6 bags of the Cod Crispies that I want to EXCHANGE for the Tilly Treats. My dog has been getting sick on them. They don't expire until next April! I'm 2 weeks past the 90 days and their excuse is they don't have a button for that option. I do the subscription and spend over $200 every 5/6 weeks. You'd think with my order and I'm sure hundreds of others they could add a button! I don't want a refund!

I love my dog. I heard about Dr. Marty's dog food. I listened to what he had to say and I ordered some. I canceled my order as soon as I found out $29 for one bag of dog food would feed my dog for 3 days. I'm on disability and I am 67 years old on social security. I can't afford to buy me food much less pay several hundred dollars a month to supply my dog with dog food. It might be what I really need for my dog in his health but if you can't afford it you can't afford it it's way too expensive. It's outrageous. Then the lady that I was talking to said, "Well I can put a small layer on top of his other dog food," but I'm pretty sure that in his explanation it said giving that other dog food was like a death sentence so how is spreading some good stuff on the deaths and it's going to be good for my dog.

The cat food I purchased went over big time with my 2 indoor cats for 2 months, then with the 3rd shipment, they vomited every time I fed it to them. This happened repeatedly, whether I used it alone or as a topper. The company sent a RA right away, tho I had no way to print it. Also, YOU pay to ship it back.

My dogs went nuts as soon as they smelled the first "test" run when I opened the bag! I couldn't move for all 4 of them sitting at my feet and behind me. Mind you, I don't have a dog under 85lbs! Unfortunately, the 10 bags ran out and I have to say, my "kids" are visibly disappointed. That being said, I'm coming back for more!!! Jasper, the Giant Schnauzer, Loki, the Bluetick, Lottie Louise, the Treeing Walker Coonhound, and Willow, the stray that found us, thank you from the bottom of their big ol' hearts!!!!

Cairo, our 6 year old Malinois Shepherd mix has had and itching problem since we got him at 6 months. Nothing would correct it. We tried several vets to no avail, until we tried Dr Marty's Pro power Plus! Within 4 days his itching has completely stopped. He's losing less fur and is so much happier and relaxed. We even had him on ** which was the only thing that semi worked but now he no longer takes it at all. I highly recommend the Pro power Plus for your dogs. We have had a fantastic experience also with Dr. Marty's Dental sticks also, and we only give him one every other day.
We also feed him Dr Marty's essential wellness everyday with his dinner meal and have also had nothing but excellent experience with that also. We had a Pomeranian named Pokey who gained another three and a half years of very happy life when the vet wanted us to put him down the next day before we started him on the essential wellness. My wife Paula and I highly recommend Dr Marty's to everyone who loves their dog as much as we love ours!
Thank you so much Dr. Marty,Ross and Paula

Our 3 cats love the new cat food! We keep a bowl of it dry for them to munch on through the day. We were using a different, but highly-rated dry food, but have noticed many fewer episodes of vomiting up hairballs after switching to your brand. They also get 1/3 of a can of wet food twice daily. I am considering reconstituting your freeze-dried pellets and seeing how they like that instead of the canned food they now get.

Annie likes Cod Crispies just fine but haven't given her much lately since we are going heavy on Tillies Treats which she is absolutely hooked on. Still have part of a bag of the cod so will shift gears for a little bit for the time being to give her some variety. But she wolfs the cods right down as with everything else we get from you.
