Delivery:

All of our packages are shipped with a carrier that provides the ability to track your package. Due to changes in FedEx policy, FedEx no longer requires a signature at the time of delivery on residential orders. Make arrangements for your frozen order to be delivered at a location where someone can accept it and put it in a freezer. If this is not possible, leave a note for the delivery person indicating where to leave your package so it is out of the sun.  The food only stays frozen for up to 3 days from shipment, if it is left in the hot sun, there is a possibility it will begin to thaw.  Gourmet Doggie Diner does not issue refunds for the thawed products. Gourmet Doggie Diner does not refund shipping charges for delayed delivery by the carrier.

Backorders/Out of Stock:

We try very hard to avoid having products on backorder or be out of stock.  However, sometimes this is unpreventable and for this, we are very sorry.  You will be notified via email of any back-ordered items. Back-ordered items are typically in stock within a few days, unless there is a delay with the manufacturer. You will have the option to either have us hold your order until all product is available for shipping or to cancel the item that is on backorder.  Your credit card will not be charged for the back-ordered items that are canceled.
