Where it started:Rocky changedeverything andI never set out to start a dog food company.My husky Rocky had the worst stomach on the planet. Years of vet visits, prescription diets, and hundreds spent on premium food brands. We tried everything. Nothing worked.So I decided to build it myself. 36 recipe iterations. Countless hours with vets and nutritionists. All chasing one question: what’s the best food we could possibly make for a dog? When we finally got it right, Rocky was the proof.He hasn't been sick in over 18 months. He runs three miles with me every morning. That's the standard every Happy Howl bowl is held to. Nothing less.Colin Buckley– Founder

I switched from a frozen fresh food to happy howl. My dog loves it. I love the convenience of having it on the shelf and long shelf life. I'm glad I changed and so is my dog.

That’s fantastic to hear! We’re so glad the switch to Happy Howl has been a win for both you and your pup. The shelf-stable convenience and long shelf life make things so much easier, and even better that your dog loves it too!

My dogs love lamb, so I bought their lamb stew. My dogs gave it a sniff and wouldn’t eat it.

Thank you so much for giving Happy Howl a try and I’m really sorry to hear your pup isn’t taking to it. We know how disappointing that can be, especially when you were hoping for a smooth switch. Giving your dog time to transition to Happy Howl means you’re giving their body the chance to adjust gently—leading to better digestion, improved energy, and long-term health benefits. We offer two other recipes, beef and turkey which we highly recommend introducing to your pup as well! A Few Things That Might Help: 1.) Warm It Slightly • Try heating it for 10 seconds in the microwave to enhance the aroma—it can make a big difference for picky eaters! Please use a microwave safe bowl and do not heat up the packaging 2.) Mix With a Familiar Food • Start with just a small spoonful mixed into their food they already love, then gradually increase the Happy Howl portion over 5–7 days. 3.) Stick to a Mealtime Routine • Offer it at regular times, then pick up the bowl after 20 minutes—even if they didn’t eat. This teaches them that food won’t always be there (and helps with picky habits). Feeding transition recommendations: Days 1-3: 25% Happy Howl, 75% Current Food Days 4-6: 50% Happy Howl, 50% Current Food Days 7-10: 75% Happy Howl, 25% Current Food Day 11+: 100% Happy Howl Return Policy: https://www.thehappyhowl.com/policies/refund-policy

Found Happy Howl on FB and it intrigued me as we recently started a more natural approach to feeding our Golden. She didn't like Farmers Dog after week 2 .. we are still on week one with your food but if smells better, easier to store for sure and she is gobbling up each day. I think having more help determining her exact amount would be helpful.
Response from Happy Howl· Oct 28, 2025
We’re so glad you gave Happy Howl a try! It’s great to hear your Golden is enjoying her meals and that the convenience and storage have been a plus. We totally understand wanting guidance on portioning, we’d be happy to help you figure out the right amount based on her weight, age, and activity level to keep her healthy and satisfied. Feel free to contact us at [email protected].
