Merrick Backcountry Raw Infused Great Plains Red Recipe + Grains with Beef, Lamb & Rabbit Freeze-Dried Dry Dog Food

Oliver loved the initial purchase of this product without the grain. My second purchase I tried with the grain. He is definitely scratching more with the grain. I will stay with the food but need to switch back to the one without the grain. It is a bit pricey but as long as he is happy I will continue to purchase.

This is the ONLY dog food my very pick husky will eat. Trust me when I say that we have tried every brand available. She loves Merrick Raw Infused plus grains and Chewy makes it very convenient to ship to our home. Thanks Chewy!

I have two blue heelers and as soon as I started transitioning my dogs to this food they went nuts for it. They’d even sort the new food out from the old food and eat the new food first. I’ve noticed a difference in their coats and they haven’t been itching as much like with some other foods.

This seemed like a really great food but my picky pit didn't seem to like it. Part of the problem was that it was beef so it's back to the drawing board as she doesn't like grain free either. It's a real challenge to feed her.

The raw infused dry dog food is very good. Natural carnivores like dogs deserve the best. This food is well received always. My dog loves it and I feel good about the ingredients. Merrick is a trusted name. My big boy has tried all of the raw infused flavors. These products are good for your dog.

I was reluctant to buy a food I was not particularly familiar with, but the reviews were good. I, not to mention my girl, am very glad I bought this food. She loves it and now her weight is under control.

I received this product as part of a promotion. My dog absolutely loved this product we are going to the store to get more immediately. The second I brought the bag in the house he was sniffing it. We started with just mixing a little of it in with his normal food and I hadnt seen him this excited over mealtime in years. He was jumping all around. There was one day i didnt add it on top and he went over to the bag and sniffed at it and looked at me with those puppy dog eyes begging for some. And hes a picky eater. He gets bored of food quickly and will refuse to eat if it isnt interesting enough. He cant get enough of this stuff though. Especially the raw freeze dried bits. Those are his favorite I received this product as part of a promotion. My dog absolutely loved this product we are going to the store to get more immediately.

I received this product free for product testing. It was a good thing, too! We had just exhausted our previous bag of kibble when this arrived. The smell was inviting and seemed drool worthy to our picky husky, right outta the bag. As she sniffed her bowl, she used her pointy snoot to pick out the freeze dried bits! Was she simply saving them for later? No. No she wasn't. Overall, I believe she enjoyed the food, but if she's not going to eat the bits, then there's no need to go with this type. I am open to try the other formulations, if she is amenable.

I received this product free for testing purposes. That being said, our year and a half labradoodle loves it! I was excited to try this because it has freeze dried chunks and a great ingredient list. Before I even opened the bag Momo was sniffing and whining to get into it. I gave a few pieces to her and she was in love. I mixed in a little with her regular food and she eagerly ate it up. Used the smaller bits for reward for tricks and good behavior and she was more excited and more ready to please than normal. She loves the large raw bites, I love the quality!

Jasper is picky. He’s always had a delicate tummy and poopy issues since he was a young pup. We adopted him and he had multiple issues: Giardia that wouldn’t fully go away after several treatments, worms, kennel cough, etc. He was diagnosed with IBS about a year ago and our vet has been helping us navigate foods that he will eat but also reduce his bowel issues. Jasper LOVED the grain-free version of this food (and he had solid poo), but our vet wasn’t thrilled with the grain-free aspect and had us on other food with grains. Jasper wasn’t eating it well. I was over the moon to see that his favorite food is now available with grains! He eats the raw bits first of course, but he still eats the Jasper is picky.
