fixed my puppy’s digestion
By MoCe20 on Aug 10, 2020
My 18 week old basset hound has had poop problems since we brought him home at 8 weeks. Always very loose, sometimes diarrhea. Fecal float always came back negative. I thought maybe his meals were too large so I cut back, problem didn’t resolve. I saw another reviewer say that this food solved their puppies poop problems so I bought a four pound bag to see if he’d even like it. HE DEVOURS IT. And before he was even fully transitioned to this food, he was pooping normally for the first time EVER! Thank you Merrick!

Puppy approved
By Charlie on Jul 11, 2020
I wanted to try something different because my 3 months old puppy(husky mix) would eat his other food (blue wilderness) throughout the day but never ran to his bowl when it was feeding time. When I took the bag out of the box he was already pawing at. I tried mixing his new food with his old but he just picks out the new food and leaves the old. My puppy now get excited when I open the cabinet I keep his food in. I have also been using a handful of kibble when training.

Absolutely FUR-bulous!
By DogMom on Jun 16, 2020
4 dogs - 2 seniors, 2 puppies. Both puppies were eating everything including the feces of the other dogs. Plus both puppies are large breeds were wanting to eat constantly - more than normal. It seemed they never had enough food. Notice a difference in their stools immediately, within a day, and within a few more days, after feeding fullness and satisfaction. Definitely worth every penny!!

not good for my dog
By Maxi on Jun 10, 2020
After carefully transitioning my 6 month old puppy to this food, he kept having digestive problems with it, so ultimately I stopped giving him this food. He is now on low carb food and doing well. So my experience was not good but that doesn't mean that other dogs might do well with it. The ingredients look good.

Great for Sensitive Pup
By Brandon on Jun 30, 2020
This was the third brand we tried. The first was beef and and second was chicken, with similar nutrient-makeups as this one, and our puppy was having bad stomach issues. We tried this one, and it was a matter of one meal, and he had normal stool. He seems to love it too. Glad we found a match.

SOLVED MY PUPS POOP PROBLEMS!!!
By Claudia on Jul 9, 2020
My Schnoodle was previously on a grain-free chicken and brown rice based kibble and would have constant diarrhea sporadically. It took a while before I realized chicken was the problem, and once I switched him over to this brand he has been vomit and diarrhea free since day 1.

Hard as a rock.....literally.
By Doxielover on May 30, 2020
While I appreciate the fact that this os made in America I have to say that yhis food is hard as a rock. For my Miniature Dachshund puppy it's really hard for him to eat and I'm going to try adding some warm beef broth to try to soften it up for him.
