Are any Merrick products currently being recalled?
No. None of Merrick Pet Care's recipes are being recalled.
What is the difference between Merrick grain-based and grain-free foods?
Some pets develop food intolerances or food allergies and grains can be difficult for a pet's stomach and intestines to break down. If your pet has a sensitive stomach, our Grain Free recipes can help their digestive system problems. At Merrick, our Grain Free recipes feature higher levels of proteins, omegas, glucosamine and chondroitin.
Do Merrick’s Grain Free recipes contain fillers and chemicals?
We are committed to using only the purest ingredients in our recipes. Our recipes contain no ingredients from China; no poultry by-products; no artificial additives or preservatives; no artificial flavors or colors; no corn, wheat or soy; and no glutens. We've excluded these ingredients because we believe pet food should be fuel, not filler.
Big Nutrition for Small Pups
To cater to the big appetites of small pups, Merrick offers a line of grain-free dry and wet recipes for small breed dogs. Merrick Lil' Plates is perfect for your tiny pup, who will love the smaller bites for little mouths and dainty dishes for smaller portions.
It Starts With Protein
Merrick Lil' Plates recipes start with real and wholesome USDA-inspected deboned meat, poultry or fish as the first ingredient. This means that your pet will get more wholesome protein with every meal. Quality protein provides the amino acids necessary for building strong muscles and a healthy metabolism.
Palatable Plates for Your Lil' Pal
Give your small breed dog a delicious dinner with Merrick Lil' Plates single-serve dinner trays. Each recipe satisfies your tiny dog's desire for a meaty meal smothered in savory gravy, while providing him with incredible nutrition like high protein levels and essential fatty acids. These 100% grain-free dinners are packed into smaller portion sizes ideal for smaller breeds, so pet parents can always serve up a fresh meal.
Serve Up Balanced Nutrition
Following every protein are fresh fruits and vegetables like sweet potatoes, blueberries, peas and more for a complete and balanced recipe that will give your pup the nutrients he needs to live an active and healthy lifestyle. You won't find corn, wheat, soy or gluten ingredients in any of Merrick Lil' Plates recipes, so your food-sensitive pup can safely enjoy the high-quality, nutritional benefits that Merrick offers.
Benefits Worth Barking Over
Merrick Lil' Plates has big benefits for small dogs, like added probiotics and prebiotics to help support nutrient absorption. Plus, each meal boasts leading levels of naturally occurring glucosamine and chondroitin to help support joint function. And the tiny, crunchy bites characteristic of Lil' Plates kibble are designed specifically for small breeds to help reduce plaque and keep your pup's teeth clean and in good condition.
Tasty Treats for Petite Pals
Merrick Lil' Plates offers a variety of grain-free and gluten-free treats that are not only enticing for your pup, but also provide a nutritional boost to keep him on his A-game all day, every day. Perfect for training and rewarding dogs, these treats always feature real, deboned meat as the number one ingredient and never have any artificial preservatives or fillers.

Love love it
By Marlie on Feb 7, 2019
My puppies went crazy over this food. It actually smelled like something I would cook. Quality ingredients and grain free.

Our lil' man really enjoys this!
By petnurse on Oct 7, 2018
Our Pomchi puppy refused to eat dry food to the point he was going to starve himself. We tried several brands of dry to try and tempt him. No luck. I didn't want to deal with spooning out from large cans and refrigerating leftovers. This was the perfect solution! He loves the taste and I love the handy, meal sized containers. Plus, Merrick is healthy for his little body so we don't have to feel like we are feeding him junk food! Win-win for all!!

Zoey loves this and its the perfect size. She is a small dog. Buying big cans is a waste. I feel good about the ingredients as well. Price is very good.

Smells yummy and pup loves it
By christine on Jun 15, 2018
Just switched from regular Lil' Plates to these Small Breed Lil' Plates. My pup was getting bored of the regular Lil' Plates so I switched to these a couple days ago and he's going bonkers...he's in love. I love it too as it actually smells really good and you can see whole potatoes, peas and other veggies mixed with the meat. Nice size morsels too. This recipe is a keeper!
