Merrick Grain Free Slow Cooked BBQ Kentucky Style with Chopped Lamb is a wet, canned food Merrick formulates for adult dogs, sold in 6 oz, 12.7 oz cans. Because ingredients are listed by pre cooking weight, the first five on the label, deboned lamb, beef broth, chicken broth, chicken, red peppers, are the ones present in the largest amounts before cooking removes water and reduces bulk. The guaranteed analysis on the label lists 8.0% crude protein and 3.0% crude fat as fed. Merrick publishes a body weight based feeding chart on the product page and label rather than a single daily amount, since portion depends on a dog's weight and activity level. Merrick sells this recipe as a standalone meal or as a topper mixed into dry kibble. Whatever food ends up in the bowl, a single ingredient freeze dried topper is a way to add interest without changing the diet, which is what Sniff and Shift makes in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
