My dog loves the taste
By Milky on Jun 21, 2018
I have a Brussels Griffon/Pug mix and got these little containers of food to mix with the Merrick kibble. She really likes it. I like the fact that it isn’t too stinky and easy to mix into the kibble because it is bits of meat in gravy. The only thing I don’t like is that the foil top is hard for me to peel back because of my arthritis. I use small pliers to roll the top back, so I’ll keep buying it, maybe try different flavors. The container is easy to rinse out and throw into the recycling bin. Since switching to Merrick foods, her coat has gotten thick and shiny and her skin allergy is almost gone.

My Dog Loves this
By Kate on Apr 21, 2018
I have a standard poodle, but I only give her wet food as a treat. So I use these to mix with her dry food on special occasions. She loves it. Has the Merrick good name and just small enough to be a treat with a cut of dry food.

By Marleyfan on Feb 17, 2018
Marley is a 17 lb. Lhasa-Poo that loves this dinner mixed with Merrick's Lil' Plates Senior Small Breed Grain Free Dry Dog Food. He gobbles it right down! Marley prefers it to the canned Thanksgiving Day Dinner. Glad to see him enjoying his meals.

Cocker Spaniel loved it!!!
By Joni54 on Feb 8, 2018
This looked so good I almost tasted it. Our dog is a very picky eater but she gobbled it right up. We also feed her the Merrick Little Plates Senior dry food. That is the only dry dog food she will eat. Thank You Merrick!!

Puppiestreat
By Penny on Dec 25, 2017
This my dog's most favorite commercial food and will do anything for it. She prefers it over the large tin of the same thing for whatever reason as it's the same product with the same ingredients.
