Is the kibble itself actually freeze dried or is it just the coating.

Answer by ChewyMay 10, 2022
The freeze dried coating is the only thing freeze dried, so the kibble will not be freeze dried.

Is the actual size of the kibble that if a pea? Or larger? Thanks!

Answer by ChewyMar 27, 2021
The kibble size will be 1 cm in diameter. The kibble sizing will be standard across all of Merrick recipes with the exception of Small Breed and Large Breed recipes.

I think this is the one I'll keep with

This has the healthy grains. The other one I tried has no grains and too many vets say not to do the "no grain" unless your dog is allergic to grain.

Gave my Golden Retriever GI upset

OK, so I’m not blaming the brand at all because I’ve used some of their other products and had no issues but I think the specific flavor the salmon is very high

OK, so I’m not blaming the brand at all because I’ve used some of their other products and had no issues but I think the specific flavor the salmon is very high and fat and my dog constantly had either diarrhea or very very mushy stools. So I had to change him to a different brand that had less fillers. Other than that my dog loved the freeze drive dried pieces that are within the kibble.

Happy Puppy!

Roxie can be kind of a “fussy” eater, but she loves this kibble!

Small sized kibble

To be for large dogs, the kid boy is awfully small. I really like my dog to chew his food.

Keeps my performance gal in condition

My girl has been on this for a while and doing well with it. Seems to be a good quality kibble without a lot of filler.

Merrick Dog Food

My dog seems to love this food but the food itself seems to have a lot of morsel breakdown which causes a mess in his bowl and around it.

Love this food

Love everything about this diet - I feed a mostly raw diet and they get some kibble and I like that it’s already raw coated as well - but wish they made a larger

My Dog Loves it

It is easy to find in stores and online. I do believe it is a little high priced for non prescription food.

Great ingredients, crumbles in bag

It's hard to find a kibble with no peas and no chicken. This one fits the bill but the pieces crumble in the bag. I've never seen this with other kibbles other than a small amount at the bottom of a bag. I have a dog with a nasal fistula who can't have these crumbly bits. I continue to buy it and pick through the bag for the intact pieces (my other dog gets the dregs, poor girl) but I really wish the manufacturer would address this issue.
