Where can I get sample size quality dog food


How many cups of food are in the 25# bag?

Answer by ChewyFeb 21, 2018
There's approximately 20 cups of food in the 4 pound bag, 48 cups of food in the 12 pound bag, and 100 cups of food in the 25 pound bag.

Is there a difference between deboned meat and meat, for instance the first ingredient on a bag is deboned chicken vs another bag that just says chicken as the first ingredient? Is that the same?

Answer by ChewyOct 18, 2018
Chicken is a highly digestible, lean protein that enhances palatability. Deboned chicken is the clean combination of skin and flesh without the bone derived from whole chickens. This is the same deboned chicken we eat and is free of added growth hormones and steroids.

Is this brand of dog food aafco certified?

Answer by ChewyApr 25, 2021
AAFCO does not regulate, approve, certify or endorse animal feed or pet food in any way, and AAFCO does not review an individual company's label or labeling. AAFCO members discuss and approve model legislation that is recommended to the states for adoption as individual state laws and regulations. Merrick Grain Free Real Texas Beef + Sweet Potato Recipe Dog Food is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance.

Trouble with delivery

They had several delivery issues and my order kept getting delayed. I buy Merrick beef and sweet potatoes dog food for my golden retriever who's allergic to chicken .I was out of food in two days and my food didn't come..chewy was very good at trying to compensate me in the meantime by offering a 20 gift card. No food again 25.oo off. By now id been cooking everything i vould just to havd food for her. Eggs and vegetables .i was out of anything else to cook. U dont have a car and there was just nothing at my local grocery store that didnt contain some sort of chicken ir chicken by product. By the time I received my delivery it came in two separate boxes and they shipped the same order for free. I will continue to use Chewy because they went above and beyond to make this right.

In MY opinion, and research, NOW FRESH is the Best/ Healthiest dog food available. But, due to a picky Jack Russel, we found what WE believe to be the second Best/ Healthiest dog food, Merrick... Very Happy with this brand, and we are on our 4th year feeding it to our dogs.

When I set-up this auto shipment I immediately noticed it had my sister's address (I have ordered stuff for her pup) I called immediately and was told that the address was fixed....it wasn't! Now I have to drive 45 minutes to grab my pup's food. Not a happy customer!

Gave this a long chance to work out. I decided to remove poultry from my dogs diets because of a veterinary recommendation. Gave this food a shot. A dog that’s never had diarrhea in its life has loose stools every day twice a day. Purchase at your own risk

This has been making my guy sick. I've definitely noticed a change in appearance and quality in this food, so unfortunately we'll have to try other options. We've only fed our pup Merrick for years.

Itch Relief

Scooter had an itching problem when he was rehomed with us. The vet suggested we change his food, which we did, but nothing seemed to work. Finally the vet said

Scooter had an itching problem when he was rehomed with us. The vet suggested we change his food, which we did, but nothing seemed to work. Finally the vet said Scooter was allergic to chicken, so we looked for a chicken free one and found this one. Scooter turned up his nose for a couple of days before finally trying it, and now he doesn't scratch all the time and won't eat anything else. Yes!!

Dog loves it.

Dog loves the food, and his hair is starting to slowly grow back. No stomach issues transitioning either.
