Description

Product Description

Backcountry Raw Infused Large Breed Recipe caters to the nutritional needs and appetites of large breed dogs, featuring large-sized kibble to match their bigger bite size. This natural, grain free formula provides your dog with the nutritional benefits of a raw diet they would have discovered in the wild in a safe and convenient recipe that's easy to serve.

  • Real deboned chicken is always the first ingredient. This high quality protein helps build and maintain healthy muscle tissue and energy levels.
  • Freeze-dried raw pieces are mixed into the kibble in a pure state to provide nutritional benefits that are easily digestible and taste great. The raw inclusion goes through rigorous testing and a proven process called High-Pressure Processing (HPP) to ensure food safety.
  • All Merrick Backcountry recipes are rich in Omega fatty acids for healthy skin and coat, and contain leading levels of glucosamine and chondroitin for healthy hips and joints.
  • All Merrick recipes are crafted in Hereford, TX kitchen and cooked in the USA, in facilities that uphold strict FDA guidelines.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best food decision I made for my girl! I was using purina pro plan for sensitive stomach for about 1 1/2 years when suddenly Jazz stopped eating. 3 days she wouldn't touch the food. I was worried she had a blockage and called the vet, thankfully nothing. I remembered how much she liked the Merrick my aunt feeds her dogs so I bought a bag filled her bowl and she devoured it! She has always had a sensitive stomach and the previous foods I tried she would have diarrhea, vomiting or both. NOT WITH MERRICK!! She has been eating it for almost 2 years and gets so excited at feeding time every time. Finally a good that is good for her inside and out and no stomach issues. Thank you Merrick!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The very best Kibble I've ever fed with! My third Rottweiler, Tennessee Ted, recently turned 14 years old! And I sincerely attribute a large amount of him reaching the ripe old age of 14, to his diet of Merrick Large Breed kibble. Ted is my fourth Rottie and I've never had a Rottie live this long and he's still in good shape too! He can still jump into my 4wd SUV easily! I say this because my other three Rottie didn't live past 12 years old with the average of the four making it to 11 years of age. Regular exercise too! That's my boy!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it This is all I feed my dog. He’s a bullmastiff mix and a very picky eater. Once I put him on this food, his coat got soooo soft and his weight got much healthier. He eats the whole bowl (he never did that with his last food) and is doing great. Been buying this food for a year now, and I feel no need to switch anytime soon.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best food for a Picky Giant I have a year and a half old Great dane who I have always had trouble getting to eat. I felt like I tried every food out there. Half of what he ate usually ends up on the floor. I started feeding merrick back country and he is a completely different dog. He eats full meals, and gets excited about meal times. His coat is shiny and his allergies are completely cleared up. He even picks his food up off the floor when he is done! I will admit it's pretty pricey, but worth it if it keeps my boy fed!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not all that large Just recently purchased this because I was looking for a good large kibble dog food. The "Raw Chicken" pieces are large but the kibble pieces are not. In fact they are smaller than some of the normal food that I buy. (example: Taste of the Wild) My Dakotah did eat 4 handfuls right off but later he shied away from it. I would recommend it, but with reservations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Food for a Great Price I have a 6 month old bullmastiff puppy. I switched her from blue's wilderness to the backcountry puppy food and it has been the best move I've made. She is now close to 90 lbs and the vet as well as her trainer are both impressed on the fact that she is keeping a good weight - not going through a gangly stage. The other comment I hear frequently is "whoa - she's solid; there's no fat" ... "what do you feed her"? And from a "clean up standpoint", this food has been great for her tummy and yard clean up! I feed her 2.5 cups in the morning and 2 cups plus Instinct Raw frozen food in the evening. She's beautiful and healthy and it shows.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from So Far So Good! I have been through multiple brands, lines and flavors with my finicky 8 month old Alaskan Malamute. Finally just got the 'Raw Infused Large Breed' and she seems to love it! Ate 2 full meals when she's usually leaving behind most of her kibble. : -)
