I feed my dog mostly kibble and supplement it with real, plain people food like plain chicken, rice, beef, bone broth, etc. However, I love these Lil Plates! The container contents are the perfect amount to put in a Kong and then freeze. She will get one of these every other day or so when it’s hot in the summer. It is in addition to her regular meal but takes the place of any treats. I feel good about giving it to her instead of treats. It also works great when I give her the frozen filled Kong while having dinner.

Jack was kind of iffy, one minute he would gabble it down, next it would sit there till he realized momma is not going to give him anything else! So I’m still undecided about reordering it! Next is Blue Buffalo!

I purchased this product as an alternative to the regular Merrick grain free canned food to offer my dog a change in flavors more frequently. Some of these varieties look like regular 'people' food. Well, much to my disappointment, Li'l Plates isn't even close. I thought it would be smaller portions of what I buy in the cans. It doesn't matter the flavor, it's all varying shades of grey. Yuk. My dog seems to like it but I will not be buying it again.

Our dogs love this the size is perfect for small dogs one servings per container. The only thing is these are all chunky , my dogs prefer pate type food. If your dogs are like ours these are CHUNKY not pate ! They smell great for being wet dog food , they have alot of gravey in them , and are of good quality ingredients

It’s very highly rated for its nutritional content and my Havanese really likes it. I mix just a little of it with her prescription kibble (which is intended to be good for keeping her teeth tarter-free).

We feed this to our 14 year old chihuahua and it's just the right size for him. He likes his food at room temp and this is the right size so we don't have to refrigerate the leftovers since there isn't any most of the time. He clean his bowl every meal much to the dismay of my other dogs.

My little cavalier mix wouldn’t eat it! It smells great though, just like the little meals they’re labeled with. The cats were more than happy to enjoy the treat of “people food.” If your dog begs for your table scraps, they will probably like these.

We love Merrick products and we always like to use the Lil plates wet food for our 19lb cockapoo. He is a fussy eater so sometimes when he does not eat his plain dry food, we add a scoop or two of Merrick wet food and he gobbles up his whole bowl (he has turned his nose to other wet food brands, too). Our dog also has a sensitive stomach and we have never experienced an upset stomach from Merrick Lil plates. And we of course get amazing 1-2 day shipping and great customer service from Chewy as always!

I never buy wet food because it can get very expensive to use daily. I've heard great reviews about Merrick so I decided to give them a try. I used them as meal toppers, mixing them with Leo's regular dry dog food. It added an extra wag to his tail. He clearly loved it! however, Mini Medleys are meant for mini dogs. A 100lb Labrador like Leo would need a whole box of this to match his body weight. I'll need to watch out and get another food tray from this brand.
