Divide the total per day by the total number of times you feed your puppy per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Every puppy is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please use the information in the chart as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed.
Dry and wet food in combination will help increase the level of water in your dog's diet. If feeding with wet food, reduce dry amount by 1/2 cup for every 6 oz of wet food.
When switching your dog's diet, we recommend that it be done gradually over a 5-7 day period.

Wish puppy liked it as much as I do.
By JennyC on Jun 30, 2020
We adopted a quarantine puppy. Great Pyrenees/Aussie Shepard mix. We have tried 5 different foods with her. The shelter told us she was being fed an expensive boutique food so bought a huge bag of it to find out she hates it. So...Blue Buffalo, Natural Balance, Taste of the Wild, and numerous soft food have been tried. She tolerates this one the most. I put 2 cups (30lbs at 20wks) in her bowl every morning. She will eat it throughout the day but doesn't scarf it down. I mix some into what I call Lucy food (2lbs ground beef, brown rice, pea and carrot mix that she gets a scoop of everynight) and she will leave pieces of kibble in the bottom of the bowl.

She sometimes will eat all 2 cups of kibble but most times there's 1/2 cup left every morning. Also, the kibble is so small that she takes a mouthful then chokes on it and spits it out on my carpet. I also didn't realize this is a Purina product. So from that aspect I seriously feel this is overpriced. I bought into the commercial hype and bought this thinking it was best quality but upon researching found that the quality has seriously deteriorated since Purina took over. … more

Good nutrition for my pups
By Janet216 on Jun 5, 2020
I have 2 Pug puppies (16 weeks) and they've been on Merrick since I brought them home at 8 weeks. I've done a comparison of dry dog foods and settled on Merrick for the protein content. The pups love the food and I do supplement each meal with a little fruit/veggie in their bowls. My objective is to give these two pups a quality brand with good ingredients. Merrick fits the bill!

He Likes It!
By LizandWolfe on Jun 11, 2020
I switched my two month old GSD to this brand from 4Health. I've done the gradual switch and he's almost fully on this brand now. As soon as I started mixing this in with his old food he went wild. He loves these. Plus they are small sized, perfect for his little puppy mouth!

Terrible food
By None on May 28, 2020
I ordered this thinking it would be good for my Cocker Spaniel puppy. Unfortunately I was very wrong. She has had severe diarrhea. Terrible waste of money. Especially right now.

Can’t Get Enough!
By SAS8 on Feb 16, 2020
My doggie has been eating MERRICK since he arrived, at 3 weeks of age (AUG 2019). Do you agree even chef prepared meals, serve three times per day would become tiresome, after six months? Further, somehow, BOONIE has developed an inner clock, identifying the exact time to eat, not more than 5 minutes prior to 7 AM, NOON, and 5 PM, ensuring his belly is filled on a regular timeframe. All this, is to say, I am impressed with the dog’s response to MERRICK and will continue to use until he is ready to move on to his next food phase.

Defective packaging
By BichonMom on Mar 7, 2020
I have always been impressed with the speed in which I have received my orders, but this is the second time now my bag of dog kibble has been torn or sliced open and spills out into the box. Maybe a little more time should be spent with the handling and not so much on the speed. I would rather receive my package a day later and undamaged.

Great food
By Taylor2 on Dec 23, 2019
I just switched my two puppies to this food and they absolutely love it. I've been adding raw that I make myself but today I ran out and they ate the dry with nothing added haven't done that before with any other brands. However bags larger than 12 lbs are desperately needed and my question is why are your omega-6 has higher than your omega-3s? I agree increasing the kibble size would be a major help

By Blondie on Mar 24, 2020
Our puppy didn't like the dry dog food. She just left it in the bowl day after day.
