Dog will NOT eat!
By Ray16 on Oct 29, 2020
My dog is NOT picky eater! In fact, he’ll eat just about anything you give him accept mustard and hot sauce so when I bought this I had very high hopes! The ingredients looked good, the reviews looked good, I felt good even if I was paying a fortune for such a small bag. Come around to the day of arrival and I’m extremely excited to give this to my applehead chihuahua and he was excited too! Until he got a whiff of the food. I’ve now spent days trying to get him to get it and the most he’s eaten is around twenty pellets, I’ve even waited until he was eating his regular food just to switch it out but as soon as I do, he REFUSES! I’m highly disappointed in this and not pleased at all, so much My dog is NOT picky eater!

Older boxer puppies not liking food
By BoxerMom on Nov 13, 2020
My two older boxer puppies do not like this Real Texas Beef & Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free Adult dry dog food. The Salmon flavor is a little better to their taste buds, but not really eating their food. They loved Purina Puppy Smart Blend food initially, but it's not very good for them. I must say that my previous male boxer loved the Merrick Salmon flavor one. I don't know why these girls don't like the expensive kind! LOL! I'm going to try another brand in Turkey/chicken.

Saint Bernard Loves It!
By totallyvictorian on Oct 11, 2020
My 8 year old Saint Bernard has started to have digestive problems. She was constantly throwing up her dry food. So, I decided to change her to grain free, since she was not digesting her old food. So far (knock on wood) she hasn't thrown up for over two weeks. I know it is a disgusting subject, but if others have the same problem you know what I mean.

Best price around!
By Lgoldman1 on Nov 1, 2020
My dog has been on Merrick Real Texas Beef + Sweet Potato for almost a year now and always gobbles it up. Chewy not only has the best price around, but I am able to reliably know Chewy will make sure I have my pups food at my door when I need it.

Best Price!
By Emmett on Oct 11, 2020
My lab loves this brand! Many dog foods come with chicken and turkey, both cause increased shedding. I’ve tried “cheaper” brands, but because of the amount I need to feed him (usually 5 cups), it causes unwanted issues. Merrik is nutrient filled, so less food needs to be given! Less food + wholesome nutrients = less fecal clean-up!

Merrick dog food
By Tess on Oct 26, 2020
The ingredients sound wonderful. I have no complaints about the food except my dog looks at it, gives it a sniff, and turns her head away. Granted she is spoiled and very finicky, but she will not eat it. I don't think it is poor quality, just my dog.

My dog loves it!
By Roxy on Aug 16, 2020
My 9 year old Mini Poodle has been eating Merrick Grain Free for most of his life. He liked the buffalo formula but he also loves the beef too. My one issue: Usually the bags came resealable with velcro, but this latest shipment did not. I know it's not Chewy's fault but maybe something changed with the manufacturer. Also love Chewy's fast free shipping!
