This Food is a grain-free formula with no gluten ingredients for easier digestibility. It also contains no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

Would it be possible to switch from the Raw Infused Puppy Food to the regular Merrick Puppy Food without mixing the food to switch her over?

Answer by ChewyMar 20, 2018
Even though the brand is the same, we recommend to transition slowly if switching between the Raw Infused and Merrick Grain-Free, due to the raw pieces and different guaranteed analysis. We also recommend mixing slowly if your puppy has a sensitive stomach.
