The Farmer’s Dog Veterinary Student Ambassador Program
About The Farmer’s Dog:
The Farmer’s Dog (TFD) is on a mission to make dogs healthier and happier by feeding them freshly prepared food, designed for long term health. Formulated by boarded veterinary nutritionists from day one, we value the veterinary profession and seek to partner with the veterinary community to advance the conversation around evidence-based nutrition and elevate the standard of care for pets everywhere.
Student Ambassador Program Overview:
The Farmer’s Dog is seeking motivated first-, second-, or third-year veterinary students to serve as Student Ambassadors.
The Farmer’s Dog Student Ambassador Program offers second-or-third year veterinary students enrolled in AVMA -accredited veterinary programs the opportunity to build leadership skills, connect with industry experts, and represent TFD within their academic communities. Ambassadors participate in on-campus activities within their respective academic communities, support education around evidence-based nutrition, and provide feedback that help inform TFD’s initiatives.
In this role, students act as peer leaders and mentors, serving as a trusted resource for classmates about TFD products and services while advancing pet care through thoughtful conversations about canine nutrition.
How You’ll Be Making an Impact
- Act as a mentor and peer resource to your student community by representing TFD professionally and in alignment with TFD’s mission and values.
- Identify and participate in campus events, student organization meetings, and informational discussions related to veterinary nutrition.
- Organize or assist with on-campus educational events in consultation with TFD.
- Share non-confidential feedback and insights from your student community to help TFD support the next generation of veterinarians.
What makes you a great fit?
- Second or third year veterinary student in good academic standing.
- Currently enrolled in an AVMA-accredited veterinary program.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
- Demonstrated leadership and initiative through student organizations or professional roles.
- A proactive, self-starter, who is capable of working independently with limited supervision.
- Enthusiasm for veterinary nutrition and advancing pet health.
- Ability to commit to the position for one school year, with an option to renew.
What We Offer:
- $1,000 flat-rate payment per semester
- Leadership opportunities and career development support from TFD veterinarians and industry leaders.
- Potential optional opportunities for travel to conferences, or other TFD held events.
- A discounted TFD subscription rate while serving as Ambassador
The Farmer’s Dog is proud to foster an inclusive, supportive, and collaborative environment for all students and veterinary professionals. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds who share our commitment to advancing pet health through nutrition.
This is a 1099 independent contractor role and not a position for full- or part-time employment. Student ambassadors will have the flexibility to manage their schedules and workload.
Our Belonging Philosophy:
At TFD, we believe Belonging is a shared commitment to creating a workplace where every person feels respected, valued, and empowered to be themselves. When people feel a true sense of belonging, they do their best work, take smart risks, and bring forward diverse perspectives — leading to stronger decisions and deeper relationships. We anchor this belief in a simple phrase: “Everyone’s welcome at the dog park.” No matter your background, identity, or role, there’s space for you here. There’s no one way to show up at the dog park— just shared space, mutual respect, and the freedom to be yourself. Being included is just the beginning, it’s about contributing your voice, growing through challenges, and building trust through shared goals. This philosophy guides how we lead, how we hire, how we communicate, and how we grow.
We continuously evaluate to ensure we are creating a consistent experience that cultivates belonging for all employees, from hiring and performance reviews to talent development. We also believe Belonging happens in everyday moments of connection; lunch with a new teammate, a shared laugh, or a quick story about your weekend. Our structure includes biannual employee surveys, manager training, TFD camps, and support from Humans to ensure we’re listening and learning from our Team.
Together, these efforts reflect what Belonging means at TFD: a culture where everyone can thrive.
