The Merrick Grain Free dog food story is one of superior nutrition, delicious taste and using the highest quality ingredients. It’s about staying true to our roots and staying put in our original Hereford, Texas, USA kitchen—the one where Garth Merrick started our company and where we still hand craft our natural dog food recipes today. All Merrick Grain Free dry dog food recipes start with real deboned meat and real whole foods like sweet potatoes, blueberries, peas and more to provide natural dog food nutrition that’s complete and balanced—with leading levels of quality protein, plus Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids to ensure great looking, healthy skin and coat.
