Questions & Answers

36 Customer Questions


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.

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.

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
