Do You Struggle To Choose the Right Food For Your Pets?

This past year we welcomed home our third dog, a standard poodle named Majesty, and I decided to commit to implementing a healthier diet and lifestyle for my dogs. Luckily, once I was recommended to Ollie Fresh Dog Food, the decision became crystal clear and easy to make. Trust me, it doesn’t have to be complicated!

Why was I overcomplicating it?

If you are like me, finding the right dog food can be a stressful endeavor. It’s really one of the biggest decisions you have to make as a dog parent, and you don’t want to mess it up. The moment I looked into Majesty’s adorable puppy eyes, I knew I had to do my best to ensure he has a long, happy, and healthy life. This starts with the food. When it comes to dog food, there are limitless choices, strong opinions, and tons of information…for better or worse. I was driving myself crazy over-analyzing everything when I decided to narrow it down to three main considerations: Taste, Nutrition, and Practicality.

Does the food taste good to my dog?

If your dog is anything like Majesty it doesn’t matter how healthy the food is, if he doesn’t like it - he’s not eating it! For this reason, my first consideration when switching dog food is whether my dogs are going to actually eat it. When feeding something new, I always look for those signs of enjoyment. Luckily, I couldn’t even finish opening Majesty’s Ollie Fresh Food package without him stealing nibbles. That’s definitely a BIG sign that he loves it! He ate every last bite, and was sure to lick his bowl clean for me. This was not complicated, Ollie was winning in the taste department for all the flavors we received - by far.

Is the food nutritious?

This seems like a simple question, but it can be very confusing with the vast amount of choices out there. In my opinion, this is where Ollie shines. Their food is human-grade, made with real meats, fruits, and vegetables. It’s made fresh so you don’t have to worry about all those preservatives found in many dog foods. All the ingredients are things you can find in your local grocery store and probably have eaten yourself as a part of a healthy diet. I really love that on their website they tell you what all the ingredients are, and the benefits for your dog. This was not complicated. There is nothing better than having peace of mind knowing exactly what I’m putting in Majesty’s bowl.

Is the process easy & convenient?

How many times have you had to run out to the store at the last minute to grab a bag of dog food? Have you ever had to try to stretch that last bit left until you could get to the store? If you answered yes, you’re just like me. This is why convenience is a major consideration when deciding on dog food. I can’t think of anything easier than having a monthly supply of food arriving straight to my doorstep. When I get off work I’m usually too tired to make a detour for dog food. Once we added Majesty to our multi-pet household, keeping up with the food supply became increasingly difficult to manage. It’s been wonderful to have Ollie take all of that off of my plate. Majesty’s food arrives each month in a variety of flavors. The additional benefit with the packaged food is portion control and custom feeding guide tailored to Majesty's unique needs. This was not complicated, it’s what this busy dog mom needed.

The bottom line

Committing to providing Majesty with healthy meals was much easier than I thought. It was actually more affordable than I thought as well. For the price of my cup of coffee each morning, I realized I could really make some impactful changes in Majesty’s life. That is worth having coffee at home. Don’t give yourself a healthy makeover and leave your dogs behind, prioritizing your dog's health starts with Ollie!
