Not the right food for our coonhound puppy
By Razz on Sep 30, 2020
She perpetually had itchy skin and a film on your hands after petting her. Her stool was high volume and always on the very soft end of the spectrum. We fed her this from 8 weeks old until 5 months old. Her itching, skin, and stool never changed during all that time so we switched away from this food. I'm sure it's good for others but not our girl. We are 3 weeks into a different food and her itching, skin, and coat have significantly improved.

My puppy loves this stuff, only con is the price
By Lucinda on Jul 29, 2020
I didn't buy this product from chewy (but will soon since she's running low), but I did buy this in a store since I needed a brand that I could transition my new puppy into feeding regularly. When I saw all the ingredients, it seemed pretty good, so I went and bought it. To be very clear, I really do love this brand for my new fur baby. She loves this more than her original food the previous owners gave me! But the price point can be alittle daunting once you go past the 10lb bag where a 22lb bag is 60 bucks when alot of other brands can be significantly cheaper. So, depending on what you are looking for in your dog food and the benefits it could provide, you should weigh out if it is worth I didn't buy this product from chewy (but will soon since she's running low), but I did buy this in a store since I needed a brand that I could transition my new puppy into feeding regularly.

Great and healthy!
By MARLINA on Sep 25, 2020
My pup started off on Iams dog food. When I got him he was 9 weeks old and all I knew was that he would be eating healthy foods. He loves this food and enhales it. He’s slowly gaining weight and completely healthy

Good for all puppies
By Shelly on Jun 20, 2020
I've been using Merrick for years. I like that the ingredients are all natural and that the company is USA based. The protein sources are whole and there isn't any "filler" ingredients. So, naturally, when I got my Shepsky puppy, I chose the Merrick brand. This food is perfect, since it covers "all breeds" with the best ingredients. My puppy loves it, too. He was happy to chow down from the very first meal.

should have
By vanvan on Jun 30, 2020
I thought my mini poodle puppy would like it after I read all the good reviews before I bought it. unfortunately she pick it up and put it away when I fed her. She didn’t like it at all even I tried to mix it with her favorite food. Tried so many different ways and still cannot make her interested in this. I should have ordered a small bag.

Threw it out.
By Doxielover on Jun 9, 2020
My puppy would barely touch this and he's a voracious eater. The tiny pellets sounded like he was trying to crush rocks and 9 times out of 10 he would just pick at it and finally walked away. I wanted something that was produced in America and this fit the bill,but considering the cost of this bag it definitely wasn't worth it since I ended up just throwing out over half of it and getting some Purina Puppy Chow. My puppy is happy and eating well again.

Thank You!!
By Queen on Jun 22, 2020
I have finally found a food that agrees with my picky Boston Terrier puppy tummy. Also, I notice how her coat shines better and no gas. Thank you so much, my baby doesn't have suffer anymore at meal time.

Perfect for my puppy!
By Samantha on Mar 27, 2020
My Toy Fox Terrier puppy has been on this food since before we got him. Tried to switch him to something a bit cheaper, but he started starving himself instead! Switched right back to this food, and he can't get enough of it! It's kept him at a good, healthy weight, he's lean and strong, and he's got more energy than I can keep up with. Definitely won't be switching away from this brand any time soon.

Great Puppy Food
By MerrickFood on May 16, 2020
I looked all over comparing puppy food and this is the best. Not cheap but not over priced. My puppy loves it and has had no problems getting adjusted
