Good taste- pieces too small
The dog food tastes good for my small dog, but the pieces are so small I’m worried he’s eating too quickly and will choke
My dog refused to eat this.
I purchased this for my dog as he is small. I like the size of the kibble. Looked like it would be healthy for him. He ate a few bites the first day and has refused to eat any since that first time. He usually eats just about everything. I was very surprised when he refused to eat this.
They love it
I have 2 senior dogs and 1 middle aged. All 3 love taste and I love the ingredients. They had been eating a refrigerated diet until I read that mold had been found inside that product. I wasn't sure how they would adjust, but they took right to it. Transition slowly, one of my dogs had diarrhea one day so I slowed the process down.
Not fit for consumption
This pet food is not fit for consumption. Product stinks and my Chihuahuas would not touch this food. My husband trys all of the dry dog food we purchase. He felt sick after trying on piece of this dog food. I wish I could give zero stars. We went back to the Zignature brand that does not dissapoint.
first time ever
My dog Dixie loves this food so much! I was so surprised and pleased. Grain free. Just what she needed. Thanks Chewy
Good product
This food seems fine. I ordered the wrong one, but this is fine. I met to get one with freeze dried beef bits.
My dogs love this!!
Very happy with the Merrick dog food; my dogs look great and really like it!
Badfoodever
I put water on it to see if anything would come to the surface and it looked bad.
Not great taste
My two Shih Tzu’s turned their nose up to it. Tried for a week even mixed in with old food and it didn’t help.
Glad I switched
All the pups like it. It comes in small size kibble. The price is very reasonable
