Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Every dog is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please use the information below as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed. Dry and wet food in combination will help to increase the level of water in your dog's diet. If feeding with wet food, reduce dry amount by 1/2 cup for every 6 oz. of wet food.

Questions
Food was a larger size then food I bought yesterday did they change size worried dog will swallow hole and not chewy it
- food seemed to be same size as the previous bags we bought we wet the food to make sure if they do swallow the kibble whole, it will be moist and not get stuck in the troat

Did they change the size of the food I bought a bag month ago and food was a larger size then one I got month ago.
- Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. We apologize this is not the quality you were expecting. You can see the kibble change from batch to batch because we do use all natural ingredients. However; we would like to obtain more information from you. Please contact our pet parent specialist at 1-800-664-7387 or email the team at Customerservice@merrickpetcare.com

Is the Merrick Backcountry Grain Free Raw Infused Pacific Catch Dry Dog Food small enough bites and suitable for a Shih Tzu? I need chicken free as we have discovered he has an allergy to chicken.
- Hi My dog love this food you can put the kibbles in a ziplock baggie and break them into smaller pieces. But i have a Miniature Dachshund and i moisten the food with Bone Broth and she loves it. Also the freeze dried pieces they go crazy for. My Weimaraner loves it too and her coat is stunning and keeps her weight perfect. Hope this helps you Best food ever but I also give them sweet potatoes, apple, carrots, kale, blueberries,and cooked liver too

Would this work with a small cooling fan?

Works with In-line heater?
- Thank you for your question. This unit should work with any heater up to 800 watts, including a 300 watt Hydor inline heater.

Is this food suitable for open/free feeding? Also does the Pacific variety smell bad?
- I do not personally think it has a smell at all. I hate stinky dog food but this one is great. We got this product.for free but my dogs LOVE it! Hope to get more later!!

Why isn't it turning on the heaters
- Do what I did and scrap the thing. Temperature is too important to your fish to rely on a questionable product. Buy a quality heater (F&S sells several) that will hold the temperature where it is set at.
