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?

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 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.

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.

Unfortunately our vet recommended to get off this food. Not sure why, but she was not a fan of Merrick. We went for Purina Pro Plan instead.

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!

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.

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.

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!
