Hey,

Happy Wednesday!

Back in June, we asked for your opinions on dog food and nutrition through our first ever Dog Food Advisor Survey. 

Incredibly, nearly 10,000 of you responded — making it the biggest ever survey of U.S. dog parents!

The results have been gathered and checked and are now publicly available. You can see the highlights here.

I won't spoil them all for you, but needless to say, they show how much American pet parents love their dogs and the lengths they'll go to to keep them healthy and well fed. For example:

• 52% said they would go hungry to feed their dogs
• 92% are prepared to go into debt to pay for emergency veterinary care
• 96% said they would NEVER give up their dog due to food costs

Like I say, you can see more here and even download a PDF of the key findings. We'll likely publish even more of the data at various points during the year.

Thank you to everyone who took part. We hope to do the same in 2026.

Until next time,

Andrew
