We know you’ll pleased when you open the can. There are actual chunks of real meat sitting right inside and real ingredients. In fact, Merrick’s takes immense pride in their ingredients, and even offers a five-star promise, which includes these important points:
No ingredients from China
Merrick only uses local growers that they know and trust. They purchase fresh ingredients from family farms across the country, during the prime picking time for each season.
Real whole Foods
They don’t use additives, sweeteners, colors or preservatives. This ensures that the high-quality products they purchase at time of sourcing remains high-quality. It also helps them guarantee that their products are healthy.
Cooking and Quality Live Under One Roof
Let’s face it – we don’t want the world’s best dogs eating anything that isn’t cooked locally with locally sourced ingredients, with quality control we can track back to each individual ingredient. You’ll find that Merrick’s quality and safety performance is of the highest quality because they partner with groups like NSF International, Safe Quality Food, and HACCP.
Balanced Nutrition
Every Merrick recipe starts with deboned meat, not fillers. In fact, their dry recipes are 60-7-% meat, poultry or fish and each bowl has a guaranteed protein level of 30-38%. When combined with the freshest vegetables and fruits, you have a pretty good idea of their high food quality.
Health You Can See
Merrick knows that by starting with the highest quality ingredients, you’ll wind up with the highest quality foods. As a result, you’ll see your pets reaching their optimal weight, experiencing increased energy, encouraging a healthy digestive tract, and having healthy skin, joints and bones.
