How It Works
- Meal-Plan Quiz: Share your dog’s age, breed, weight, and activity. Get Joy recommends a tailored plan.
- Choose Format: Select between Fresh Meals (frozen) or Fresh Freeze-Dried Raw (shelf-stable) — or combine both. Each follows AAFCO guidelines.
- Manage Deliveries: Orders include tracking emails when shipped. Customers can pause, skip, delay, or cancel anytime in the portal.
- Storage: Fresh Meals last 9 months frozen (4 days refrigerated once thawed); Freeze-Dried lasts up to 24 months unopened.
Food Variety
Fresh Meals (Frozen)
- Gently cooked, then flash-frozen for storage. Designed for everyday feeding with balanced protein and vegetables.
Fresh Freeze-Dried Raw
- Pantry-stable, lightweight, and nutrient-retaining. Convenient for travel or households with limited freezer space.
Additional Products
- Superfood Treats — nutrient-packed snacks
- Supplements — Calm, Digestive, and Mobility chews for targeted support
This variety lets pet owners mix frozen meals with shelf-stable or supplemental products for a flexible feeding routine.
Packaging & Delivery
Fresh Meals are shipped frozen in insulated packaging; Freeze-Dried arrives shelf-stable. Orders come with storage and thawing guidance. Shipments include tracking emails once dispatched, and customers can adjust delivery schedules in their portal.

Bottom Line
