Merrick Limited Ingredient Diet Grain Free Real Salmon & Sweet Potato Recipe Dry Dog Food

Our German Shepherd has terrible environmental allergies, and sees a Veterinary Dermatologist annually. It was suggested that removing corn, rice, soy, beef, and chicken MIGHT help reduce the expression of some of her symptoms (in addition to the medical regimen already in place), but it’s NOT EASY to find a dog food without these ingredients. Merrick’s makes good quality foods and they offer this variety at a price one expects for their caliber of kibble. It has yet to produce appreciable results in the allergy department, but my girl is relentlessly picky about her dry food and she immediately took to this. Switching over to this food was also a seamless (and speedier-than-normal) process Our German Shepherd has terrible environmental allergies, and sees a Veterinary Dermatologist annually.

My Shar-Pei is very picky and has a sensitive belly. I bought this specifically for her and she absolutely loves it. She was on another brand that appears to not be making their recipe for sensitive skin and stomach. I hope this does the trick. The best part is seeing her actually excited to eat now.

I’ve bought Merrick limited ingredient for many years. The last 4 bags of dog food have smelled burnt and not like the salmon that it did before. Very dissatisfied and searching for a different brand.

I have a 5 year old dog who started having intense allergies when she was about 1.5 years old. The poor pup was chewing gigantic hotspots into her skin. We tried an elimination diet, Benadryl, and then eventually had to go to prescription medication to manage it. This year we’ve switched to Merrick Limited Ingredient Food in the salmon flavor and have ZERO issues with her allergies. We’ve even been able to discontinue her (very expensive) prescription! So impressed with this food.

The dog food was delivered the day after it was ordered! The box was ripped, but the dog food packaging was intact.

When my 24-pound Poodle Mix developed a nasty rash on his back and tail end, my vet recommended a dog food with more simple ingredients. The pet store steered me toward Merrick, saying they are known to use very clean ingredients. We tried it and my dog's rash completely cleared up. Best of all, he loves all the flavors we generally buy: Salmon, Lamb and Chicken. I'll be sticking with this brand for good!

My West Highland Terrier had very bad skin allergies...itching all the time. A friend recommended this specific product as her French Bulldog was suffering from the same ailment. It took several months and then, one day, I realized that my little guy wasn't scratching anymore. I had tried everything in the past to help his allergies (including very expensive prescription meds which can be damaging to dog's liver). I think it took his gut a while to heal and finally the benefits of limited ingredients worked.

My dog likes it better than some other kibble. He still needs some meat on top to entice him but he’s super picky and I have yet to find a kibble he eats by itself. Since he’s been on it, he’s less itchy and has great poops. I think it’s really helping him, I like the limited ingredient listing as well for a dog with many allergies.

The ingredients/nutrition of this food is exactly what we were looking for! However, for some reason our dogs weren't really interested in it. They are willing to eat it though. The thing I was surprised by was that the kibbles were much smaller than I thought. They are rounded, surprisingly shiny, and about the size of two kernels of corn put together. Sometimes our dogs just swallow a mouthful of it without chewing (which is very unusual for them). So if you're looking for a normal size kibble, that is not what you will get.

Just received this salmon and sweet potato food today. This one will be going into the garbage. I'm sorry, but the smell alone was horrific. No fish odor at all.. just putrid. I won't even donate this one. We still love Chewy! Just not this bag of food..
