MemberHello,
I want to get some other opinions on dog food with chicken bones left in it. The one I am referring to is Merrick Classic Smothered Comfort All Breeds canned dog food. This is the first time I have fed this brand and I did not read the label closely enough. I was dishing up this morning for my Bouvier (1 yr, 73 lbs.), Molly, and found the knuckle from a thigh bone and then the rest of the bone. I went straight to the label and now see that they say the bone is cooked to softness and can be chewed. The way my dogs, Molly and all the Corgi’s I have raised, eat like pigs. They wouldn’t stop to chew a bone, they would swallow it. I’m not happy with this and I am wondering what others think of this approach to making canned dog food,anonymous
MemberI wouldn’t risk it. In fact, I avoid all canned food. Instead, I buy a quality kibble, and add toppers such as cooked ground turkey, scrambled egg, etc. plus a splash of water. I avoid canned foods in general (even for myself) as much as possible.
PS: No bones (imo) I don’t enjoy going to the emergency vet.
If your dogs need soft food, just presoak the kibble overnight in the fridg.David F
MemberThanks. Just switching to giving her some moist, soft food with her dry food. The dry food is okay but there are times when she just avoids it. I am feeding some soft in the morning and now in the evening.

MemberIf I need canned food for a backup (as a topper), I have had good luck with Newman’s Organics https://www.chewy.com/newmans-own-organics-chicken-brown/dp/33511?utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Shopping-Product%20Targets&utm_term=1100000000284&utm_content=Newman’s%20Own%20Organics

ParticipantI just cut them into small pieces with a spoon. They’re that soft.

MemberI forgot to mention, Nutrisca has decent canned food, if you are looking for something with a more chunky texture. I have been using their kibble (salmon and chickpea) for years and am pleased with the product.
