I LOVE MY AUSSIE BECAUSE..
…because he is patient and ornery. Pudge has helped us raise a baby, a cat, and another dog. He’s sneaky and smart, which makes him persistent and fun!
...because they are brilliant, are very lovable and make sure I exercise 😂😂.
…because she’s a total goofball and gives 110% at everything she does! She’s the best emotional support animal and best friend I could ask for.
…because not only are they smart, intuitive and Velcro dogs, but they make me laugh with all the toddler antics they perform daily!
What Australian Shepherd Parents Are Saying...
“We always feed [Lincoln] around 7:30am and he used to wait to eat his breakfast until 1 or 2pm. Now he gets so excited for his food and eats it right away! I think he especially loves the beef liver topper.”
–Kassidy & Lincoln
“My dog is addicted to the food. Lol! In a good way."
–Ilyssa & Darwin
"Piper [has dealt with allergy issues for years] and is thriving on the food. I have not had any issues with her turning it down. Her coat looks wonderful and I don’t have to worry that her food isn't in stock!”
–Maria & Piper
“My pup, Evan, loves the food and it's good for him. I love the convenience of having it delivered.”
–Adam & Evan

frequently asked questions
How much food should I feed my Australian Shepherd?
Every dog has a different sweet spot. This has to do with things like age, genetics, lifestyle, digestibility, quality of their food, and any health issues. There are formulas that we and your vet use to estimate where to start, taking these things into consideration. After that, the ultimate answer comes from this question: Is your dog maintaining a healthy, lean body weight? If the answer is YES, you are feeding the perfect amount! If the answer is NO (they are getting a little too skinny or too chubby), then we need to make some gradual adjustments.
How many times should an Aussie eat?
For most adults, splitting their daily recommended kibble amount into two meals is perfect.
How can I transition my Australian Shepherd to BARK Food?
To transition your Aussie over to BARK Food, we generally recommend transitioning Food over the course of one week, gradually phasing out the old food and introducing the new. For the first two days offer a meal that is 25% new food and 75% old food. After that, move to 50% and 50% for two days, then 75% new food and 25% old food for two more days. After that your dog should be ready to eat only their new food! During this transition you will monitor for any vomiting, diarrhea, or appetite change that would indicate your dog is having trouble with the new food. For more on transitioning dog foods see our guide here.
