Your dog will die waiting

By Michele P., Toms River, NJ, Verified Reviewer

Though my dog enjoyed Dr. Marty's, they have terrible customer service and delivery takes so long - your dog might die waiting for it to arrive. My first order was ok - a bit of a wait. My second order never came, they reordered it, half of it came and I am still waiting for the other half to arrive. My order was placed on November 3 and I am still waiting for the second half of my order. I am sure Dr. Marty already got his money (and yes it is costly) but my doggies are still waiting for their treats. Also, the second order of dog food did not seem similar to the first and my dog does not like it as much. I will not be ordering from Dr. Marty once the rest of my order arrives.

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

Poor and unprofessional business practices

By Don G., Surprise, AZ, Verified Reviewer

The dog food may be what it’s advertised to be but the way you cheat customers is terrible. I ordered only the six bags of dog food and nothing else. Shortly after my order went through I checked my credit card account and observed that in addition to the dog food charge there was a fraudulent charge for several bags of salmon treats I did not authorize. I immediately tried to get this corrected by emailing Dr. Marty requesting them to rescind the fraudulent order for the treats. I didn’t hear anything the next day and sent another email with no response. I didn't get a response until after I received the order and it was all string along as if no one read the two clear emails I sent. This unauthorized charge busted my limited budget causing a chain of problems and putting some major financial stress on me and my family. I won’t do any business with unprofessional businesses like this. That’s really low.

This is not a fake review and everything happened as detailed above so don’t try and make it anything else.

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

Explosive diarrhea

By Andrew M., New York City, NY, Verified Reviewer

Hi all,

I am feeling so worried about our dog, Morton. He’s our sweet, little, 3.5-year-old, 45lb Bassett/Dobbie mutt and we’ve never had any health issues in the past. He’s actually a bit of a tank, whom we loving joke is "our little trash goblin" due to his fondness for street finds (which we obviously then have to pry out of his mouth - yuck?). But never any health problems.

We were so excited to start him on Dr. Marty’s Nature’s Blend because we love our little goblin and want him to live forever. We were so excited yesterday morning when we began to introduce the food to his diet and he LOVED it.

We have only been giving him 3/4oz with each meal (roughly 50 pellets) in addition to his usual 1 cup of dry food (grain-free, etc).

We did this yesterday morning and evening for each of his meals, and then this morning, for his 3rd Dr. Marty meal, we added a 1/2 a scoop of the ProPower Plus Digestive Supplement.

After his breakfast, we took him for his morning walk and HORROR. Pitiful bouts of panting, trembling, and explosive liquid diarrhea. Sorry. It was too soon after his breakfast for it to be the ProPower Plus Digestive Supplement, so it must be the Nature’s Blend.

He needed to go out 3 hours later for round 2 of more diarrhea. My poor puppy! He’s so pitiful. What should we do?

Is it Salmonella? Listeria? Should we take him to the vet?

We will obviously not give him any tonight or tomorrow morning, but should we stop altogether?

I’m so disappointed - I was really excited about this food.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

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

Pros and Cons

Few ingredients

My dog liked it

Diarrhea

So expensive

Problems for older dog

By Steve K., Tennessee, Verified Reviewer

We got this 3 days ago and have introduced slowly as a '"topping" on regular food for our 3 mini schnauzers. They loved it, even my picky eater. However, my 14-year-old dog had very soft bowel movements and then diarrhea within an hour. This is a dog who has never had an accident in the house in her life and had 3 in one night. Tried it again and the same result. I will be returning. I'm sure it is a quality product but my senior dog cannot tolerate it.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

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

Be mindful if you have a larger dog

By Kathy C., Seattle, WA, Verified Reviewer

My sister recommended Dr. Marty's dog food. It was hard to determine on the site how long a bag of food would last. I impulsively ordered 3 bags and was quickly upsold to 12 bags with an enticing one-time savings offer. The bill was over $500.

After the purchase, I did some more digging and discovered that for my 70 lb shepherd, ONE BAG would last ONE DAY. That translates to about $42.00 per day/$21.00 per meal! I do love my dog, but that is extreme.

I tried to cancel the order within 5 minutes but the big box still arrived. I was able to return the food, but it cost me $57.00 in shipping.

I'm sure it's fantastic food - just be aware that it will cost over $1200 per month to feed a dog over 60 pounds!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

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

Pros and Cons

Dog's delight of the food

Raw and high quality

The idea of it

Company Response from Dr. Marty Pets

Oct 5, 2021

Hello Kathy. My name is Kat, I am with Dr. Marty Pets. I apologize for any inconvenience or confusion. A bag of Nature's Blend is 16 oz. There are approximately 7.5 cups of food in each bag. For a dog weighing 70 lbs, we recommend feeding them 3.5 cups per day. We do understand that with larger breeds they will need more food. In this case, we recommend using Nature's Blend as a topper to their normal food. This was they still benefit from our formula. If you ever have any questions in the future, my email is Kat@drmartypets.com. I hope you and your pup have a great day.

Good and bad

By Daniel L., Smithton, IL, Verified Reviewer

I'm torn between giving more stars or less stars.

First, my two German Shepherds absolutely love the food. Secondly, I feel that I'm only teasing them with it, because I can't afford to give them more. Even as a topper to other high-quality food. With two Shepherds, you could only imagine how much they eat, and how much it costs to maintain a diet with Dr. Marty food. Too bad, because they love the food.

Also, sales rep was somewhat rude with insinuating I must not love my dogs enough if I'm not buying Dr. Marty's food. This happened when I was hesitant to buy at first, due to the extremely high cost.

They should cut the margins to sell more food. It's a shame to create something that could be so beneficial for your best friend and family member, but you can't afford it. Not everyone is Oprah Winfrey. Just a shame.

Length of Use: 1–2 years

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

Pros and Cons

My dogs love the food and treats

The absolute high cost of food and treats, even as a topper, it's prohibitive to continue usage

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.

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!

Good, stinky, expensive

By JoAnn H., Rotonda West, FL, Verified Reviewer

I have 2 dogs, they are sisters. One loved it the other would not touch it. The small bag was not enough for one month for just my one fur baby, therefore it is way too expensive. I can feed them the meats we eat with veggies with lower cost.

Summary: good, but the expense outweighs the quality of the product.

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

Too costly

By Raymond K., Arizona, Verified Reviewer

Hi Raymond, Kat from Dr. Marty Pets here. Thank you so much for your review. If you find that Nature's Blend is too costly, we recommend using it as a topper on your pet's food!
