	A bunch of us use the Merrick canned food. I can only use the Before Grain line (black label), I am a grain free pup. We order staight from the Merrick people because we joined to club to get 10% off each order. All US domestic orders ship for free. The grain free canned foods are great! It is the best canned green tripe we can find. We also respect the regular line of products with all the fun names. It looks and smells like real people foods. One of our pals was not interested in any food at all until she tried some Merrick on top of her kibble. Emma and Zoey, Fitz and Tessa, and Sunni's pack all eat some Merrick products that I know of for sure....If you go to the Merrick website, they have a video of their factory on the home page.

	I tried to find the article, but it's already packed...Merrick canned food was rated as one of the best and as a superior dog food in the wet category by The Whole Dog Journal in 2009. I use the Before Grain wet as a topper, and mom refills my kongs and marrow bones, tosses in the freezer for an excellent treat.

I just have to add that I LOVE The WDJ and very much enjoy reading it every month. HOWEVER - I have to question the judgement of picking foods that are produced by Menu Foods. If you all remember correctly - Menu Foods was a HUGE contributor to the 2007 Pet Food Recall. Maybe things have changed there, but my personal opinion stands.

	I cannot remember, but it was some foods from Menu? Maybe they had so much trouble that they are being extra careful...

	Yeap - if I remember correctly MOST of the foods were manufactured by Menu. You may be aboslutely correct that they are being extra careful, I just find it hard to have any trust in them at this time. Please don't misunderstand....as I said I love the WDJ and am thankful to Sunni and her clan every month when I get it, but I just have a hard time with bouncing back after my trust is broken I guess. What you feed is a very personal decision and I don't want to cause any harm by stating by opinions. On the other hand, I do feel that it is important to keep things like the Pet Food Recall in mind. That is the main reason that I mentioned it.

	We are the same way at our house, Abby...we are selective with which companies we support with our hard earned $ as a matter of principle. It is one of the reasons we like the Merrick company. I wish I could eat all their fun name products, but have a sensitive tummer...

Where's the- Ball?! Throw- the ball!!!

	Eagle Pack's site says their food is made by their family-founded plants, maybe they get their ingredients from Menu? This is so confusing! We liked Food Toppers for a while to top our food with, but stopped using it, 'cause can't Ma figure if it's economical (Ma is very mathmatically challenged). Didn't like the Pot Pie, few vegetables and they didn't re-hydrate well. We really liked the beef and chicken, though!!!
