who owns farmer's dog

The Farmer’s Dog is a privately held company co‑founded and owned by Jonathan Regev and Brett Podolsky, along with various investors who hold equity stakes through the company’s funding rounds.

Who the founders are

  • Jonathan Regev is a co‑founder and serves in a leading executive role (commonly cited as CEO) at The Farmer’s Dog.
  • Brett Podolsky co‑founded the company after dealing with his dog Jada’s severe stomach issues, which improved when he began home‑cooking her food.

How ownership is structured

  • The Farmer’s Dog is not listed on public stock exchanges, so there is no single public corporate owner; ownership is split between the founders and institutional investors from multiple venture funding rounds.
  • Articles and business breakdowns describe it as a fast‑growing DTC pet‑food startup that has raised outside capital, which means the founders likely no longer own 100% but remain major stakeholders and the key controlling figures.

Quick Scoop (SEO‑style summary)

  • The short answer to “who owns Farmer’s Dog” is: co‑founders Jonathan Regev and Brett Podolsky plus their investment backers in a private‑company structure.
  • There is no indication it has been fully acquired by a large conglomerate (unlike some rival pet‑food brands), so it continues to operate as an independent, founder‑led pet‑food company as of the latest reports.
