Hungry Bark

A year ago, my dog was losing a lot of fur and had diarrhea, after finding positive Google reviews I made a purchase. Every month to follow, my dog's condition didn't get better. Every month we were taking him to the vet for an allergy shot. In February, he started to get small abscess on his groin area, we took him to the vet another shot. In May 2022, he started there was purulent coming from his abscess, he could no longer walk. It had spread all over his body and lost pretty much all his hair, his lips were bleeding. We took him to the vet, allergy shot, antibiotics and **. His condition kept getting worse. This became a monthly routine with him. He has lost so much weight, he couldn't walk to his food bowl.

I've got a rescue Catahoula Leopard Dog at 2-3 yrs old when I got her. I tried various kibble because apparently her digestive system was sensitive. Her stomach would make the most horrible noises after eating and she would fart a lot. And many many times she would run out the door and eat grass like a goat. I felt she needed probiotics. So I got her a custom easy to digest kibble at Hungry Bark and she loves it. I also got the sprinkle on probiotics...but I don't use that all the time. She gobbles up the kibble even without that. Guess what..she's been on Hungry Bark for a while now and NO wild stomach noises and farting anymore. Her coat is shiny and she is a healthy girl!

If I could give 0 stars, I would. My dogs are very picky and to them, the food was meh but they will eat it because it was all they were going to get but they took their time but didn't rush to it. I even bought the beef protein mix that their website claims they will devour and love but mine did not and two dogs that I was watching threw it up. I have an unopened bag that I would like to return and I contacted their representatives through the chat and phone options and asked if I can return it and get my money back and their response was "Because of its personalized nature of the custom meal plan item, they cannot accept it".

My vet actually recommended this company after I told her I've been struggling to find a dog food brand that actually cares about MY dog's unique needs. Almost all the brands on the market today offer a "one size fits all" diet - which is a shame because just like humans, every dog has their own dietary needs. Hungry Bark broke that traditional "one size fits all" mold and offered the personalized diet I was looking for. My Golden Retriever isn't extremely picky, but she is considered senior and does need a little extra digestive and joint support than most dogs. She seems to have really taken to the food, and so happy now that I know she's getting the proper nutrients to help her thrive.

It's always been a struggle making changes into my dog's diet, however the step by step transition provided by Hungry Bark really helped me with introducing my dog to a healthier dog food option. My dog seems to be satisfied with the food and I have seen an improvement in her energy levels. The best part about the service is that it is automatic and I don't have to worry about re ordering. Would definitely recommend trying this out.

I've been having issues trying to find the right food for my Bentley. He's super picky and also suffering from a number of allergies. Every food I tried seemed to cause some new complicated. I decided to go the custom route and get a more personalized meal plan for Bentley based on his allergies and unique issues. So happy my vet mentioned Hungry Bark because it's been a game changer for me. Bentley is doing better, I'm doing better and really happy I found the company as they did all the guesswork for me. Definitely recommend trying their meal planner and seeing for yourself.

My dog is just doing so well on so many fronts. He looks younger, acts younger, his coat is glowing. The most amazing part is he has stopped licking his paws from allergies. I feel great to see this but also guilty I didn't find you guys earlier. Thank you for making my dog happier!

Updated on 04/16/2021: I ordered custom kibble for my dog on April 1, 2021 with an interval of 4 weeks for subsequent orders. After meticulously following the steps they recommended in introducing their kibbles to my dog, in the end my dog didn’t like it. I was going to cancel future orders but I thought I had 2 weeks to do so before they send the next batch. Today, 2 weeks later they charged me for the next batch which they said had been processed already! Two weeks early??? This is very poor customer service. Also, in response to another reviewer Hungry Bark said that they would refund the reviewer’s first order of custom kibble. In my case they said they wouldn’t because it was custom order! Very disappointed.

So I decided to try this product, ordered on March 21st and did not receive the shipment until April 6th at 12:32pm. April 7th I tried the product with my dogs. They went on a so called hunger strike for the next 4 days. The day after I received my first shipment (no time to try product) the company auto shipped another order and charged me $111.13. I have not even tried the product. I called FedEx to stop the shipment and they said that the shipment can only be stoped by the Hungry Bark. Hungry Bark refused to do anything and requested that I just donate the $111.13 worth of dog food to a charity.
