Can I give my dog this food he is almost 6 months old? Will it be safe for him to eat it??

Is this product sourced/packaged solely in the US?

Answer by ChewyMay 02, 2021
Most of Merrick's ingredients come from the USA, however, in certain circumstances some ingredients (Vitamin B) may be sourced from China due to availability. Each and every ingredient must meet Merrick's own rigorous quality standards. Ingredients are tested upon arrival, samples are tested throughout production, and all pet food is tested before they release it for sale.

Formula Changed?

I have been buying this dog food for years. All of a sudden it has changed. You used to be able to see the veggies and meat chunks. Now it is a very wet, mushy food

I have been buying this dog food for years. All of a sudden it has changed. You used to be able to see the veggies and meat chunks. Now it is a very wet, mushy food with absolutely no evidence of what it’s made of. My dogs still eat it but I will probably try something different for them. We also feed them the Merrick grain free dry food.

I feed my dogs Merrick dry & my eldest dog started having issues with the kibble and the regular cans are too chunky to point she started choking. Rona a toy fox terrier mix at just 14 pounds and 15 yrs old she had to have some teeth removed and some teeth just fell out but that is to be expected with her age . My daughter picked some of these lil plates for me to try with her & she ate them right up no choking and she licked the bowl clean , I gave her one in the morning & one in the evening , she started gaining weight and now is at an ideal weight & very healthy , her coat is very soft & shinny and her poop is good no loose stool and just good , she does beg for more but one twice a day is good for her & her age but she also gets soft teats 2-3 xs a day .

My dog loves the Merrick Lil Plates brand.

Always secure packages. The dog loves these and I feel like I'm feeding her quality foods. It costs a little more but I have more confidence in Merricks than I do with instore brands. I started buying Merricks because I could see what the ingredients were. My dog at the time was allergic to chicken. Merricks was the only brand that I could definitely tell had no chicken or chicken parts. Once I started feeding her Merricks, the scratching and hair loss stopped. I'll stay with Merricks as long as we have our fur baby.
