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.

What has happened to quality control???
My dog is 2-1/2 and ive been buying your food exclusively. The last 2 bags: one had no chunks of chicken so I returned and got another..now this bag has maybe 20 pieces. The chunks are the REASON i buy yours!! Im furious and my dog just looks at me and walks away and waits until late night so you are messing up his routine too. So hes NOT getting the ingredients listed on the bag. Time to switch brands i guess....

Wish it had more meat!
Merrick is quality food and my dog enjoys it. However I would not say the kibble is much larger as the description would lead one to believe. Also considering this bag is less weight and cost more than the standard grain free I purchase from merrick I would expect more meat in the bag! Hence the 4 stars.

THE BEST food for your large breed dog!
We have been feeding our Great Dane Backcountry for quite a while and we are thrilled with the results. Having a large dog, it give us piece of mind knowing we are doing the best for our dog in nutrition as well as providing the vital supplements of glucosamine and chondroitin for a large breed. This food satisfies at each meal with good nutritious food for our picky eater. Read your labels pet owners and don't be fooled by the brand and product names! This is the real deal & we highly recommend Backcountry to everyone who asks what we feed our beautiful boy!

We do like it!
Bought it a few weeks ago though I find he is consuming more of it then of the wild back country blends to be satisfied, maybe we should go back to more exotic wild blends. Ruger my 80lb 18 month old GSD. I eat local sourced raw, my best friends my butcher from Local Provisions in Laconia NH.

Perfect for Picky Dog
I bought this yesterday, after literally trying every dog food out there.. From Go, Now, Fromm, Orijen, Acana.. my dog wouldn't eat any of them... I brought this home yesterday and he has mowed it down like no other. He loves it!! I have a 2 year old golden retriever and couldn't be happier.
