I feed my tiny pooch one of these for breakfast, then leave a small amount of dry Merrick grain free food out for munching throughout the day... I """FINALLY""" have a very happy dog who eats instead of picking, and not one episode up upset stomach... It also looks pretty ok for dog wet food, and smells like real food... The individual servings are perfect size for my 1-1/2 lb dog, and work well while traveling... It's a bit spendy, but worth it...

I have a lhasa apso who is a fussy eater. Merrick little plates are the perfect size for him and he loves them. The rabbit is his favorite. Chewy.com is a superior company with great customer service, fast shipping and a huge selection. I have bought many treats and toys and all of them have been a hit. Shop with confidence here.

I needed in-between meal snacks for my senior who has small, not-that-strong teeth. The bites are easy for him to manage and he loves the gravy each variety comes with. Bonus: the foil covers can be re-used since he usually only chomps 1/2 a container at a time so I can keep it in the frig for a few hours 'til next snack. I've always been happy with the quality of Merrick and this variety pack was the perfect solution for us.

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.

We have two extremely small dogs. They never like any dog food and are constantly begging for human food. We purchased this and sprinkled a bit of Merrick dry food in it. They love it! We've only been giving it to them for a few days, but the best part is, they're not begging anymore! Both of the girls seem to be perfectly happy with this as a meal.

I have 2 little dogs. Bella loves to eat her food and everybody else’s too. She lives to eat. Lola is very fussy and only eats to live. Neither dog would eat this. I even microwaved it. Definately “thumbs down”. I’ll donate to my local animal shelter.

You can see the high quality of this moist dog food. My rescue toy size dog loves it. I top the toy size Pro Plan hard kibble with this wet food. It is proportioned properly and the right tiny bits of food, so she can handle it well.

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!

We have two dogs without any teeth. I thought this would be a ground entree, like a pate, but it’s small chunks. Our dogs are able to eat it without any problem, and actually devour it because it’s different.

My extremely finicky 15yo Pekingese decided he likes this better than the Cesar dog food he has been eating for years. He has a very sensitive digestive system and this doesn’t seem to upset him.
