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. Lil' Brush Bones help freshen breath and clean teeth, and they have a natural chicken flavor.

Did not Care for it.
By MDH70 on Jan 7, 2019
Sorry, but my dog would not eat it. For some reason he did not like it and he is not a picky eater. It seems rather "thinks and tough" for a wet dog food. Other brands I have tried have a little more gravy and you can actually see the veggies if they have them included. To me, it doesn't look "fresh" or appealing.

Scrumptious!!
By DanaHighlandIN on Jan 16, 2019
My dogs love this!! I add it to their Merrick dry food, add a little warm water, and mix it up. They gobble it down! Can’t always just eat the dry food without a delicious enhancement! I love seeing them excited about it!

He loves it!
By Scruffy on Nov 28, 2018
I use it as a topper for the kibble. Nice little morsels with gravy. I get 4-5 meals from each little container as I just moisten his food with it. He loves it. It's also good if you have to give a pill. It mixes right in and he doesn't know it's there. I also use the beef stew. Perfect!

Teeny but big on taste
By Bosmom on Sep 25, 2018
We have been feeding our lab Merrick dry and canned for about a year and earlier this year he decided he didn't like the canned any longer. We tried a couple other brands, but he lost interest quickly. I needed to find him a wet food to put his probiotics in, so when I saw these on Chewy, thought I'd give it a shot. Well, he LOVES it! And it's just the right portion to use for his meds. Will be buying more.

Small servings for small dogs
By 5dog on Oct 10, 2018
Good individual servings size for 5 pound dog. I have 5 dogs and 4 of them like this food a lot and 1 of them would not eat it! It seems to be of good quality and the morsels are a good size for tiny teeth. Will purchase again

Axel loves it
By patty on Nov 2, 2018
I switched to Merrick Dog Food after my vet told me my other dog food wasn’t that nutritious. Axel appears to love it and I feel better that this is healthier for him.

yummy lil plates
By Beth on Sep 20, 2018
I wasn't paying attention to the size when I ordered the product so it's a little small of a portion for the size of dog I am feeding. However, my dog loves it and inhales so either way it's a win win. Looks like real food to me!

decent brand
By katiedtlc on Oct 9, 2018
my dogs were eating the grain free lil plates - I purchased this because of the great price, but it made them really gassy! I switched back to the grain free flavors.
