Great Choice
By Brody on May 2, 2020
My Brody has been on this food since he started eating puppy food (now 7 months). At first he would run to it at the sound of the bag opening. Now he kinda let it sit and nibble throughout the day. I mean it agrees with his bowel but I think he might be tired of the same flavor. So I’m thinking about keeping the Merrick Brand but maybe finding a different flavor!!!

My Border collie puppy loves it!
By Jackie on Mar 20, 2020
We've used this food since we've brought our puppy home and she does excellant on it! No matter the chunks aren't consistent she doesn't mind and I dont care. Very quality food and worth the price. My girl has a shiny and beautiful coat! And seems to be thriving. Will be buying again!

Our dog looks great!
By Hanna on Feb 15, 2020
We have a young GSP who’s SUPER picky with her food. We tried several brands before Merick that she just wouldn’t touch. She devours this stuff. I love that it has the freeze dried raw too. Her coat is twice as shiny since starting her on this food and she’s putting on lots of muscle instead of fat. She looks great!

Only 1 piece of freeze dried meat
By Belle on Mar 13, 2020
So there was literally 1 piece of freeze dried meat in the bag 1 got. My puppy liked the kibble anyway so that was good. Just don’t like paying for something and not getting it.

good product
By Allan on Mar 14, 2020
The product is without question, great. The shipping method needs looking into. Box was smashed, bag was tore open, and one of the can products was smasked

puppy does not like it.
By Kasey on Jan 15, 2020
My pup isn’t much of a picky eater, but he does not like this very much, which is strange. My older dog loves it! And my cat tries to sneak a bite every now and then. It seems likes a good quality brand. Lots of chicken bits. Guess I’ll try a different recipe.

food this time, is too small
By Jennie on Oct 22, 2019
I have been feeding this food to my Rottie pup for a year. this is the second time a bag came that had what looked like bottom of the barrel product. The freeze dried chicken is much smaller that it is supposed to be and the kibble is literally a fraction of what it is usually. The kibble is falling out of her mouth. Other that that My dog loves it. and she is very healthy because of it. I will be switching though because of it.

Not enough dry raw chicken
By yanm on Nov 27, 2019
My Dogs loved the raw chicken pieces but there was very little of them. By the time we were halfway through through the bag there was no more dry raw chicken pieces. Good product but because of the price it should have more raw chicken

By BoxerBruno on Nov 7, 2019
I've been feeding my boxer puppy this for about 5 months now and he's been enjoying every plate of it. I highly recommend it.
