Chihuahua 2lb puppy

By Linda F., Mountain Home, ID, Verified Reviewer

She broke her paw on March 3rd (don't know how), was set on March 5th. Took her back on March 11th, she was sick. Thay took off cast and found it infected. After 5 weeks of treatment, the bandages came off. Had to wear a cone for two more weeks. Ordered Nature's in the hope it would help with healing. I think it did as she no longer has the cone after 1 week.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

They love this stuff!

By Jon S., Florida, Verified Reviewer

I have three Jack Russell terriers that I started mixing in Dr. Marty's. Sonny is a fussy eater, he has never hesitated with Dr. Marty's. They love this food and cannot get enough. I am so glad that I ordered it and will be ordering again soon.

Great for a treat - that's it

By Michael A., Appleton, WI, Verified Reviewer

My wife bought this stuff. My dog really doesn't come when called when being titillated by rabbits. He is though in a fenced-in yard. A looked for a treat to bribe him in. A bag of this was on the table, so I opened it up. A strong odor hit my nose. I went outside with some in my hand and shook the bag. After 15 seconds he ran 60 feet across the yard and came in. He immediately dropped to receive the treats. Later to get him into his crate, I opened the bag and he came immediately. I will continue to use this for treats, because I sure as heck can't afford $500 a month to feed him.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not eating

By Isadora M., What Palm Beach, FL, Verified Reviewer

The first three bags he loved. I thought I had found something that he would really enjoy. Now he is not eating, maybe a few bites if at all. He still likes and eats his Tilley treats. Don’t know what’s wrong.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Hi Isadora, thank you so much for leaving us a review today! How interesting, I have not heard of this happening before. I can issue you a full refund, just for giving it to your pup to try. Just e-mail me at Kat@drmartypets.com and I can begin the refund process. I'm so happy to hear that he is liking Tilly's Treasures, though. I look forward to hearing from you and making this right!

After 45 days, dogs like it, but no miracle cures

By Carla B., Portland, OR, Verified Reviewer

So I bought a lot of this because 1) the deep discount at initial offering (though still not cheap, but it's really hard to figure out the price of this product), and 2) the infomercial was so compelling (natural/raw diet, easy to store and use, gut health, improved well being, etc.), and 3) the money back guarantee - I really do love my dogs and want them to enjoy the best health possible.

Since both are senior dogs (18 and 11 year olds) I was hoping for more than is probably realistic; i.e., restoration of failing eye sight, noticeable limping with exercise, mild hearing loss. None of that has improved at approximately 45 days in.

The pros of Nature's Blend, the transition to this food was easy, they both like it. I am about to run out of their kibble, and am waffling on trying to decide whether to purchase more and use it to make my whopping initial purchase last longer or not. Because I do love them and enjoy them so much, I want them to be happy and maybe I'm just imagining it, but I think they really do enjoy this new diet! They still both eat some grass and dirt, but admittedly I don't know what that means.

I am going to say I would not recommend to a friend because I honestly think I was just subject to purchase based on emotional reasons and the pricing remains a mystery to me and seems expensive. I am not a customer whose dogs have allergies or other problems discussed in the informercial.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Organic, free range, and wild

By Sophie R., Mendocino, CA, Verified Reviewer

We liked your product but we won’t repeat our order because of the fact that the ingredients that you are sourcing are not organic, free-range, and/or wild.

As you might be aware, meat that is commercially produced can contain growth hormones and antibiotics (especially organ meat).

I liked the idea that your product is raw and dry freeze. Why are you suggesting to add HOT water to it?

What about enzymes preserving?

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Hi Sophie, I'm Kat from Dr. Marty Pets. Thank you for your thoughtful review. I'm happy to hear that your pup(s) enjoyed our product, and would like to address some of the concerns you brought up in your review. All of our ingredients in Nature's Blend are from high quality, all natural sources. This includes a variety of meats, fish, ranch-raised beef and duck, and other protein sources like fruits and vegetables. Nature's Blend is all-natural and free of chemicals and fillers. In addition, Nature's Blend also contains the natural preservatives, salt and mixed tocopherols, that are safe for your pups to consume. I also wanted to mention that the water you add to it can be room temperature, or you don't have to add any water at all! Adding water does not diminish the quality or efficacy of Nature's Blend. We stand by each ingredient in Nature's Blend and would never create a product that we didn't believe in. I hope this clears up any concerns. Please e-mail me at Kat@Drmartypets.com and I can refund you. Thank you for giving Nature's Blend a try.

Saved our sanity

By Rhonni M., Mount Pleasant, SC, Verified Reviewer

My year-old Cavachon puppy was making monthly trips to the vet. His stomach was very sensitive and he frequently would vomit and suffer with diarrhea for days, he would get listless and dehydrate. He was surviving on antibiotics and super probiotics. Then we discovered Dr. Marty's food. He didn't like it at first, we had to doctor it up with homemade bone broth and a bit of crumbled chopped meat. It was like an off switch. He is 2 years old now, he hasn't vomited in a year, he has puppy energy and his stool only gets soft if and when he gets into goose poo. He now loves his food, feels good all the time and (by the way) no longer chews his feet.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Dr. Marty's food is NOT GOOD for all dogs!

By Michelle B., Illinois, Verified Reviewer

Dr. Marty's food is NOT for all dogs.

My 12.5 pound, 11-year-old Havanese got bladder stones from this food. She had been in the vet for constipation in March and had x-rays and my vet went back to see there was nothing in her bladder at that time. I started Dr. Marty's food in April 2019. On July 31st she kept squatting to urinate and could not stop the urge. I took her to the emergency vet. She was in distress. She had a bladder full of stones that were removed the next morning. This was close to $5000. She will be on urinary tract vet prescription diet for the rest of her life to avoid this happening again.

I put her on this food after listening to Dr. Marty's talk online about how this food can extend their lives. Lulu was a puppy mill mom for 8 years and has been with me for 3 years. I knew she was treated poorly in the puppy mill. I wanted to extend this sweet dog's life for as long as I could. Dr. Marty's high protein, raw diet almost killed her! The treats, freeze-dried organ meat/beef liver helped cause the stones to form.

I give this product zero stars.

The company was extremely polite. I was going to have to return the food and pay for the return. I asked to speak to a manager and he told me that I am credited for all of it and I can throw it away, I do not have to return it. I have 3 unopened bags from my auto order. My husband wanted me to donate the food to our local shelter and I decided I can not ever give this food to any dog. I am going to throw it all in the garbage, along with the bag of treats I have left.

This is another lesson for me to stop listening to what people/doctors say online.

I am writing this review to stop others from trying this diet and causing damage to their dog!

I give this food zero stars.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The customer service reps are unacceptably rude and not helpful

By George C., Florida, Verified Reviewer

I've ordered thousands of dollars worth of Dr. Marty's products throughout the last few years. I love my pets. But there was an issue with my order and the customer service rep could not locate the order number I was provided by Dr. Marty's. I was provided one invoice number via purchase confirmation via email and another order number in the package with the products. Customer service rep did not have any. Customer service rep was rude. Constantly spoke over me and would not give me her name. Would not give me the history of my purchases. Very matter of factly rude and uncooperative. I will never be purchasing another thing with Dr. Marty. You've lost a customer with your poor customer service and lack of appreciation of my business.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Immediate changes

By Margaret M., Toronto, Canada, Verified Reviewer

George is a Shitz Zu we chose from a shelter. We estimated that he was about a year old and he is with us about 7 years now. While always in good health he did have some minor issues: high liver values, redness around the eyes (within the last year) and constant licking of the feet.

Within 3 days on Dr. Marty's the licking and discharge stopped. A blood test about 4 weeks later showed normal values. His behavior got more perky and his coat (we always thought was pretty silky) got shiny and so soft. Lastly, on very expensive dog food, he always left back kibbles. Now, he leaves nothing behind and started asking for food during the day!

Our only problem is shipping to Canada is very very long. My daughter ordered a subscription in October, and as of November 14th, it has not arrived. We now have to go back and buy his old food. Customer service could not trace the order even though I received notification that it was shipped on November 01.

I am not pleased with the customer service response and get the impression that they do not care. Even though I received an email confirming shipping yet they could not trace the shipment. Great food but shipping to Canada is a big problem.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nature's Blend

By Kimberly B., McLean, VA, Verified Reviewer

My dog loves it, the cat likes it too so I am now ordering her the cat food too. Every time I get the bag out they both line-up for it. My only issue is the expense so I am supplementing with cheaper dry food too. Is there a price break with an auto-ship option? Thank you and I look forward to seeing the benefits in my cat too!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
