Best Sundays For Dogs Alternatives

Last Updated on February 12, 2026 by Kieran Beckles

Have you been feeding Sundays For Dogs but are ready to switch and looking for the best alternatives to ensure a smooth transition?

We Feed Raw Quick Verdict
Skye and Copper wait for We Feed Raw
We Feed Raw is Copper and Skye's absolute favorite dog food. Their recipes transformed Skye from a picky eater to a food-motivated dog. It's been incredible to see the change in her. It's worth the price for that reason alone.

Sundays For Dogs is one of my favorite dog food brands based in the US. Since returning to California in 2023, we have reviewed all the leading fresh dog food companies.

However, you may want to switch your pet’s food to try fresh dog food or adopt a raw-fed diet.

Although my picky eaters love Sundays For Dogs, you may find your fussy pup isn’t a big fan or you’d prefer to feed a brand with more recipes.

In this article, we’ll share what we believe are the best Sundays Food For Dogs alternatives, including other air-dried dog food, some fresh dog food brands, and raw dog food.

In the video below, we share our hands-on experience testing the best alternatives to Sundays for Dogs, including how each option stacks up in quality, cost, and convenience.

1) We Feed Raw

My top pick if you’re ready to swap out Sundays For Dogs would be We Feed Raw. This is the brand responsible for changing my Klee Kai.

We started with their human-grade raw dog food, but they’ve also got a freeze-dried range if you’d prefer to stick with a dry food format.

Copper and Skye love their recipes. I’ve never seen Skye show such enthusiasm for dog food as she does with We Feed Raw.

They offer a custom meal plan, and they recently launched their peel-back meal pouches in 2026 to make feeding time even easier.

We’ve been feeding We Feed Raw every month for the past two years, and our Klee Kai have been healthy throughout that time.

We haven’t experienced any pickiness with Skye. There’s been no tummy trouble. Their pooping routine is regular, and the stool size is small.

I can’t recommend We Feed Raw enough. Their freeze-dried meals cost me $201 a month, while their raw meals cost $280.

2) A Pup Above Whole Food Cubies

A Pup Above offers pet food in fresh and dry formats. To highlight the best Sunday alternatives, we’ll look at their air-dried equivalent: Whole Food Cubies.

When you feed Whole Food Cubies, you enjoy all the benefits of fresh food because it’s just A Pup Above’s fresh food patties in dry form!

So the Whole Food Cubies is the same quality as their fresh dog food: 100% human grade, gently cooked sous-vide and slowly air dried to lock in flavor and nutrients but just diced into cubes.

A Pup Above’s recipes contain 70% protein, non-GMO veggies, wild salmon oil for healthy skin and coat, and superfoods such as thyme, parsley and flaxseed.

Skye and Copper love fresh dog food so I wasn’t surprised to see my Klee Kai devour A Pup Above. It was clear to me that their dry dog food had a lot of flavor by Skye’s mealtime excitement.

A Pup Above offers four dry food options – Beef, Chicken, Pork and Turkey. That’s more variety than Sundays which is great if you do have picky eaters.

To feed A Pup Above to my Alaskan Klee Kai cost me $182 for a month’s worth of human-grade dry food.

3) UnKibble

If you’ve researched the best dry dog food in the USA before reading this article, you’ll probably have encountered UnKibble by Spot and Tango.

They’re one of the leading dry dog food brands trying to improve your dog’s health with their human-grade UnKibble recipes.

UnKibble uses limited-ingredient recipes using human-grade meat and veggies that pet owners will likely recognize and even eat as part of their diet.

Just like all the dog food companies featured here, pet parents will need to provide details about their dog, such as their dog’s age, dog’s breed, dog’s activity level, and more.

UnKibble stands out because it offers an extra level of customization, including a custom scooper that comes with your first box. You can make sure you get the portions right!

Spot and Tango offers four UnKibble recipes: Beef & Barley, Chicken & Brown Rice, Cod & Salmon, and Turkey & Sweet Potatoes. This is a good variety for fussy eaters!

You can get started with your first box by filling out their sign-up questionnaire. I spent $138.56 per month on UnKibble to feed their dry food to Copper and Skye for a month.

PROS
CONS
Human grade
Pricier than kibble

4) The Farmer’s Dog

We’ve only highlighted dry dog food so far, but if you want to swap air-dried food for fresh frozen meals, let’s take a look at a fresh dog food company.

Having tested a lot of different fresh dog food in the past 12 months, The Farmer’s Dog represents the best value service if you’d like to try fresh food.

The Farmer’s Dog offers fresh-food meals containing real ingredients, such as USDA beef and chicken, and vegetables, such as peas and sweet potatoes.

What impressed me about The Farmer’s Dog is how they customized their meals for Copper and Skye. They labeled their meals and stuck a portion guideline on the front. It’s a small detail but I liked the attention to detail!

The Farmer’s Dog offers four recipes: beef, chicken, pork and turkey. Copper and Skye’s favorite recipes were beef and chicken.

Unlike dry dog food, The Farmer’s Dog must be stored in the freezer and a few defrosted meal pouches in the fridge.

The Farmer’s Dog is the most affordable fresh dog food company I’ve reviewed. Their meals cost me $153 a month, which is almost the same price as some of the dry food companies highlighted in this article.

PROS
CONS
Human-grade
Only 4 recipes
Custom pouches

No custom scooper

5) Maev

If you’ve previously tried dry food and fresh food, you may be ready to attempt a raw-fed diet.

Having tested some of the leading raw dog foods in the USA, Maev stands out as the most convenient, especially if you’re new to this pet food format.

Maev uses human-grade ingredients such as USDA beef, USDA chicken, fruit, and vegetables. When you take a peek inside the bag, you can see the many colors of the fruit and veggies.

They offer just two recipes (beef and chicken) but have different formulations to cater to different health and behavioral issues (calm & anxiety, hip & joint, skin & coat, and weight & digestion).

Maev don’t offer a sign-up questionnaire but you can complete their feeding calculator to figure out how much raw food you need for your pets on a monthly basis.

Unlike some raw food, Maev is ready to serve direct from the freezer. You scoop out the appropriate portion of raw food from the bag before putting it back in the freezer. It’s simple and mess free!

Skye and Copper were obsessed with Maev, I was astounded by their reaction. Skye showed so much mealtime excitement. So Maev passed the picky eater test with flying colors.

I paid $152 to feed Maev to my Alaskan Klee Kai dogs.

6) Tally’s Ranch

Tally’s Ranch is a freeze-dried raw company who provide human-grade meals for dogs if you’re looking for an alternative to Sundays Food For Dogs.

It was founded by Michael, who previously worked for The Farmer’s Dog (who will feature later in this list). They launched in 2024 to offer another option for dog owners who want to feed natural ingredients to their pups.

Tally’s Ranch offer pet owners the chance to allow their dogs to enjoy the benefits of raw dog food without the hassle of handling raw meat. The morsels are stored in a resealable bag and come with a handy scooper.

They offer beef and chicken recipes, which admittedly isn’t the biggest menu when compared to other human-grade dog food brands. However, Copper and Skye enjoyed eating the two Tally’s Ranch recipes.

You get started by signing up through their questionnaire. This allows Tally’s Ranch to tailor your dog’s food to meet their requirements based on your answers. While they provide a scooper (something which Sundays don’t do), it isn’t a custom scooper like UnKibble.

I was charged $176 when I signed up to receive a monthly supply of Tally’s Ranch for my Alaskan Klee Kai dogs. The price is comparable to most of the dog food brands on this list.

Stick With Sundays?

Now that we’ve looked at the best alternatives to Sundays For Dogs, you might be ready to make a change or have second thoughts about ditching Sundays.

We still feed Sundays to Skye and Copper because we like the convenience of feeding air-dried food that doesn’t take up fridge or freezer space.

While it doesn’t require fridge or freezer space, we love that our Klee Kai dogs are still eating fresh food but just in air dried format.

It’s great value, considering I pay $139.98 for a month’s supply of Sundays for my Alaskan Klee Kai.

Wrapping Up

So there we have it! I’ve highlighted five potential alternatives if you’re ready to ditch Sundays For Dogs.

There are plenty of human-grade dry food options, such as Tally’s Ranch, A Pup Above, and UnKibble.

If you’d like to try fresh food, The Farmer’s Dog represents great value and proved a big hit with my picky mini huskies.

My favorite raw dog food is Maev, which makes this pet food format simple to adopt if you have no experience.

Having said that, I’d ultimately stick with Sundays if I were a dog owner looking for human-grade food that’s convenient and good value.
