Auto Ship Subscription Issues

4 days ago
I will start by noting my dissatisfaction is not tied to the product. I have been feeding my dogs this food for years and it is one of the few brands that does well with my older pups sensitive stomach. My frustration comes from the difficulty trying to figure out delivery. When I purchased and set up the auto-ship the website said order would be delivered by the 22nd. I waited and nothing happened with the order, I had to go into schedule the shipment? I ended up having to go to a local store to pick up food because I ran out waiting for my order from TSC. I am still waiting on part of my order that says delivery must be scheduled but it's not giving me an option to schedule. It's now over a week past the initially stated delivery date and I will have to again pick up feed from a local store to ensure I don't run out. Where is the convenience? Additionally I have now been on hold for 20-minutes waiting for customer service to answer. I will be cancelling all of my auto shipments from TSC.

Jade's favorite food

24 days ago
After switching my Golden Retriever to , I noticed a major difference in his endurance and recovery during long rides with my Missouri Fox Trotter gelding. We regularly do 25–30 mile conditioning and trail rides, and this food has held his weight and energy far better than standard maintenance formulas. Before switching, he would start fading toward the end of longer rides, especially during hot weather or back-to-back riding days. On the 26/18 formula, his stamina stayed much steadier throughout the ride and he recovered noticeably faster afterward. The 18% fat content seems to make the biggest difference for sustained energy during distance work. My golden maintains good muscle tone without getting overly heavy, and his coat stays healthy and glossy even with frequent miles on the trail. His feet and joints also seem to handle conditioning better since getting him onto a more performance-oriented feed. The formula includes glucosamine and chondroitin for joint support along with taurine and added nutrients aimed at active dogs. One thing I appreciate is that it gives working-dog level calories without being so rich that it upsets his stomach during exercise. His digestion has stayed consistent, stools are firm, and he eats it eagerly even after hard rides. Other owners mention similar improvements in coat condition, digestion, and maintaining condition in active dogs. For anyone using a dog as a true riding companion — especially alongside gaited horses covering real mileage — I think Black Gold Explorer 26/18 is a solid choice. It has done well fueling long-distance trail and endurance-style rides while keeping my golden lean, energetic, and ready to go again the next day.

Yes, I recommend this product.
