Merrick Lil’ Plates Grain Free Dry Dog Food For Small Dogs, Texas Beef And Sweet Potato Kibble With Raw Bites - 10.0 lb. Bag

Hi there!! We are SNICKERS, age 2…the “little guy” 14# … &. HERSHEY, age 3…..19# AKC Shih Tzu’sWe have weaned ourselves off of Badlands Ranch beef and onto this stuff. Much, much better!! We love this stuff!! No more food disintegrating into powder!!These little pieces are the best and we LOVE the RAW BITES!!! Our Mom tried it once before a long time ago with a large bag to save $ but it was stale and we wouldn’t eat it!!!So now she has decided it is better to order us 3 small bags per month. It’s more expensive, but it’s better for us. “Worth every penny” is what she says.So she opens the bags and picks out the raw bites and puts them in a little jar and adds them to out breakfast bowls so they last evenly. (She’s pretty smart)We are super healthy & super spoiled, too!!! We’ve only been to the vet’s for neutering and regular vaccinations/checkups!!!We get a little bit of this in the morning for breakfast with a half squirt of salmon oil on it….And for dinner we get 1/4C of this and we split a Merrick’s Little Plates teeny tiny steak dinner….sometimes, lamb stew!! Canned pumpkin several times a week.Always healthy grain free snacks and chewies!!!Sigh!!! We have these old folks well trained!!! LOLWell, that’s it…this is the BEST dry food for us little guys!!! It’s really good tasting stuff….we run around like crazy…no upset tummies….great poop. And all those things that make our hooomans happy!!!Tell yours to get you some!!!! They have kinds for big guys, too!!!Bye…WOOF, WOOF…..for you non verbal guys!!! LOL

My rescue Chihuahua didn’t have a great appetite despite trying prescription and other high quality (Wellness brand) food. I figured I’d try one last food before assuming she’s just a finicky eater. I gave her a few pieces and she scarfed them down. So I tried to gradually ween her over to this new food but the little brat actually would spit out her old food on the floor and only eat the Merrick (pictured). She especially loves the little freeze dried bits. Despite the abrupt switch over to this food, no upset tummy from either end. Almost at the end of our first bag and she still loves it. The recommendation portion is almost twice as much as her last food, but the shape of the pellets and the puffiness seem to account for this, just something to keep in mind; I’ll be ordering food a little more often because of this but seems well worth it.

My Shih Tzu has a sensitive tummy and she can eat this without any problems. The small piece are great for her since she's small. The freezes-dried raw pieces are a big hit and there are a lot in the bag so she can a few with every meal. Great product!!!

Good product, my dog ( Basset hound) loves it.....

This is the my dogs favorite brand of food. In fact it is the only dry food they will eat.

Quick delivery. Exactly the same as I would buy in the pet store

October of 2025 I purchased a 8-week-old female Yorkie before I brought her home I decided to go on YT to try to find the best dog food for her and that's when I came across this dog food. I purchased the 10 pounds bag hoping that she would like it she is now 7 months old, and she gets excited when it's time to eat.
