Merrick Classic Healthy Grains Puppy Recipe Dry Dog Food

My boston puppy did not like this food at all. I had to put other brands of food on top just for him to take a bite. It also caused soft stool. I removed this kibble from his diet and replaced with just homemade food and his energy level, stool, and skin/coat drastically improved. Wouldn’t recommend this food for the price especially if you are on a budget. I wish i could return the rest of this massive bag. Kibble is also very very tiny. This brand is marketed as one of the bests for your pup but in my opinion its no difference than purina/royal canin. If not worse. Bland kibble

We chose Merrick to transition our puppy from what the breeder was feeding our dog because We liked the ingredients. The kibble is very small and after a couple weeks it made our dog’s stool very loose and we noticed he wasn’t always finishing his meals either. We returned it and started a new one to transition him on and his stool is much better and he seems to like this one too.

Hey guys, I’m an Aussie mix and my paw rents got this for me after doing research on puppy food with healthy grains. I appreciate their efforts in feeding me with good stuff but I didn’t like the taste of this at all! It made my tummy hurt and it was difficult for me to go potty. It was pretty awkward bc I didn’t know how to get the message across to my pawrents. Finally my Vet advised my mom to feed me a different brand. She did and now my tummy feels much better! I’ll try merrick one more time when I’m no longer a puppy but for now, this isn’t the brand for me.

I have an 87 lb 8 month old golden retriever the kibbles are so small it all ends up all on the floor. with such a high price and ridiculously small 12 lb bags its not worth buying. The ingredients seem good but my dog wont eat it unless I put a sweet potato , chicken or egg it and even then he tries to pick it out. If this is supposed to include large breed dogs why are the kibbles so small and the bags so small?

I used this as a transition food. My pup ate it however afterward she started to have problems. My pup started to have loose movements and often. I had to move her back to original food. I have heard good things about the Merrick Puppy food but just gave my puppy issues.

I’ve trusted Merricks for years and my vet recommended a grain inclusive food for my new standard poodle puppy. I was happy to learn Merricks had introduced a grain inclusive food for puppies! She seems to really enjoy the food and is a happy, healthy girl!

I have done quite a bit of research after our dog had been on a grain free dog food for quite some time. I have learned that the first 4-5 ingredients are important. Without going in to a long story, I decided to feed a grain inclusive kibble to our new puppy. I settled on Merrick because of the ingredients listed and the order in which they were listed on the package from Chewy website. When the kibble came it is not the same ingredients nor listed in the same order. Very disappointed in Merrick. If it had come as advertised I’m sure I would have given it a 5 star.

After weeks of searching for a reliable dog food for our toy poodle puppy we finally found Merrick, he is healthy and and is fur is so soft, he is only ten weeks old yet he has so much energy, we are very glad.

Our 9 week old, 2lb maltipoo LOVES this food! We even give it to him for training treats! The kibble is extra small, which is perfect for our little guy. I also love that Merrick does not use ingredients not meant for dogs. No meat by products, nor fillers. I did SO much research on dog food and this was the one I felt most confident in my dog eating! I choose the classic version over grain free because I choose not to have food filled with potatoes, peas, and lentils. Our puppy has shown no sign of an allergy to grains (which is not common in dogs anyway). VERY happy and love this puppy food! Only thing I wish is that the bag was resealable. But definitely not a dealbreaker as we are getting Our 9 week old, 2lb maltipoo LOVES this food! We even give it to him for training treats!

Very good price for this dog food. My mother's pup loves it, so will be his regular diet. We will order it again when needed.
