Sean's Dog Food
What Sean eats as a French Bulldog
Meet Sean: The One-Eyed Frenchie Who Eats Better Than I Do
If you've met Sean, you know he doesn't let a little thing like having one eye stop him from getting around. He still zooms and plays with his toys, still snores louder than a table saw, and still manages to give the most dramatic side-eye (his only eye, technically) whenever dinner is five minutes late.
Speaking of dinner, that's actually what this post is about. We recently switched Sean over to Ollie, and specifically their Beef & Sweet Potato recipe. It's been enough of a game-changer that I wanted to write it up, share what changed, and pass along a serious discount for anyone else thinking about making the switch.
Why We Made the Switch
Frenchies are notorious for having sensitive stomachs, food allergies, and all sorts of digestive drama, and Sean is no exception. Add in the fact that he's already navigating life with one eye, I wanted to make sure his skin, coat, joints, and gut were getting the best possible support from his dog food.
Ollie offers a Wellbeing check, which includes checking their Digestion, Weight, Skin & Coat, and Dental all in their app.
Ollie kept coming up in every "best fresh dog food" conversation I had with other dog parents, so I finally looked into it.
What's Actually In his Bowl
Here's what stood out to me once I dug into how Ollie makes their food based on their website and also speaking with his vet:
- Human-grade ingredients. Ollie's recipes are made with real, recognizable food, not the "meat meal" or unnamed by-products. The Beef & Sweet Potato dish is built around real beef as the main ingredient, along with sweet potatoes, carrots, and other whole-food ingredients you can actually picture on a cutting board.
- Vet-formulated recipes. According to Ollie, their meals are designed by veterinary nutritionists to be complete and balanced, meeting AAFCO standards and WSAVA guidelines.
- No corn, wheat, soy, or artificial preservatives. For a dog with a temperamental stomach, cutting out the common filler ingredients made a noticeable difference.
- Personalized portions. Ollie asks about your dog's breed, age, weight, and activity level, and builds a feeding plan around my specific dog, not a generic bag-sized scoop.
- Made in the USA. The food is cooked in USDA-certified kitchens, which was a big plus for me from a quality-control standpoint.
How Sean's Doing Now
I'm not going to pretend this is a miracle transformation because Sean was already a very good boy. But since switching to the Beef & Sweet Potato recipe from Ollie:
- His coat has noticeably improved and has more of a shine
- His stomach issues have basically disappeared (he has some healthy potty breaks now)
- He acts like every meal is the best meal he's ever had, which, if you know Sean, he LOVES food
- Portion sizes are actually dialed in for his size, so we're not guessing anymore
