We opened the package and presented a piece of Merrick's Chicken Sausage Cuts to each of our 5 rescues. 4 took the piece and were in heaven as they chewed happily until was it gone. The fifth dog, Brock the GSD, sniffed and walked away uninterested. Follow-up offers were also ignored. More for the other 4 we guess.

This is a small bag as some of the reviewers pointed out- but my two dogs seems to like it-I prefer not to buy treats with chickpeas and extra fillers etc ( one dog is a senior and other one not yet two years old but both have issues with food)and this had none.Their favorite is a sweet potato salmon jerky treat that I can't always get but this seems like a good substitute .

When I opened the package the dried up discs were so hard I couldn't break them in two. My dog would not even take one. My dog is an older dog and has trouble with hard foods to chew. I cannot believe that this product has not already been taken off the market.

Two puppies think it tastes ok . It was bigger and harder pieces than I was expecting . It was expensive for the amount that was in the 5 oz bag . I bought it because it was all natural and grain free but the large , hard pieces made it a poor training treat .

They're a little big so we often break them into 3 or 4 pieces so she doesn't fill up, but our dog loves the treats and they seem to be high quality, like everything Merrick makes! They really do look like grilled sausage slices.

I have always been a fan of Merrick and now more than ever because of their new line of BACKCOUNTRY treats! Seems to smell great and "attractive" for dogs. It has been a big hit with our furrends! Thanks chewy!

However, they smelled bad and the texture was different this time. They were hard as a rock and smelled like... death. I didn’t give them to him. I’m sure it was just a bad batch. Unfortunate, though. They’re usually great otherwise.

I have three very finicky small breed dogs that get a treat when I leave for work. Usually 2 like the treat I give them but one doesn’t. Surprise,surprise they all love these!

My pups love these treats! I like that they can be broken into smaller pieces without a mess, makes them a great choice for training sessions too!
