My 14 week old golden retriever puppy absolutely loves his food. He is growing at a very good and healthy rate - we're very happy with this food. Poops are generally healthy and easy to clean up. Good follow up service from Mera too.

All 3 my dogs have very sensitive tummies and colons. They are doing very well on the Mera dog PURE Sensitive turkey & Rice so I'm very happy. Good quality food for an affordable price. 👌
MERA PURE Sensitive Turkey & Rice Dog Food - SubscriptionLynette Swart
July 25, 2022 I can highly recommend the product. Was recommended the product by my pups breeder, and after my pup went off a well known brand I asked for an alternative. Mera from the service to the product has been a hit. I have now changed my 3 senior smaller dogs onto the senior feed, and my other dogs onto the regular activity brand, and my 12 month old retriever onto Junior 2. Great success and their condition and energy superb

June 17, 2025 - This food is amazing! The size of the kibble is perfect as they are small and can easily be used as training treats! My puppy jumps for joy when it is time for meals, and her digestion works well!
Also, the customer service is superb!MERA Essential Junior 1 - Puppy All Breeds Dog Food (12.5kg)Christina

MERA Nature's Effect Duck - Grain Free Dog Food (10kg)Chris
March 23, 2022 My puppy loves this food. And yes, pups eat anything, but not only does the puppy love it, but my older dog also tries to eat the pup's food (and that's unusual). And I also have to keep the cat from eating it. So it is well received and obviously really enjoyable. I also use the pellets for treats when going out. MERA Essential Junior 1 - Puppy All Breeds Dog Food (12.5kg)Theresa Green
November 16, 2023 - My dog loves all the Mera foods 🙂 I especially like this one, as its very crunchy and my dog has to chew the kibble properly. As alwaysm thanks for the great service Greg and Team.
MERA Essential Softdiner - Adult Increased Activity Dog Food (12.5kg)Sharon
January 23, 2022 My young staffie bitch has itchy skin and after getting telephonic advice from Mera we tried the Pure Sensitive variant. We think the scratching is improving so we got another bag of the same. The Mera service has been caring and personal. MERA PURE Sensitive Turkey & Rice Dog FoodSue
January 24, 2022 My puppy loves this food. I think that If she could open the food holder she would finish it off.
Even the 13 year old yorkie begs for it. And she’s a fussy eater.MERA Essential Junior 1 - Puppy All Breeds Dog Food (12.5kg)Elsie
August 2, 2024 - It's one of the best foods we have been on!! After having struggled with some of the "high-quality" dog food brands on the market we made the switch to Mera and have not looked back!!!

March 25, 2026 - My 5-year-old and pup both love this treat. MERA PURE Goody Snacks - Turkey & Rice Treats 600g
November 16, 2023 We have a young, very fit and strong bouvier bitch. This food is new to her and she loves it and is thriving on it! I have to say that she demands a little more than the recommended quantity, but then again she is unusually strong and active. She runs a minimum of 6 km per day at speed and usually a good bit more.

Fantastic food! My dog stopped scratching significantly since switching over to Mera! 4 stars just because I wish the protein content was a bit higher but other than that, my dogs are happy so I'm happy! MERA PURE Sensitive Turkey & Rice Dog Food - SubscriptionUpasya

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
What is the difference between the grain-free and rice-based recipes?
Both ranges follow the same Limited Ingredient Diet philosophy and are wheat and gluten-free. The grain-free dog food range uses potato as its carbohydrate source and is suited to dogs with a specific aversion to all grains. The rice-based range uses rice as its carbohydrate source and offers a full life-stage selection from puppy through to senior.
Is MERA PURE Sensitive good for dogs with itchy skin?
Yes. Many food allergies in dogs manifest as skin conditions – itching, redness, and coat problems. Our Herring & Potato recipe is particularly beneficial for skin health, as herring is a natural source of Omega-3 fatty acids, which support healthy skin and coat condition. Thousands of dogs have found relief from itchy skin on MERA PURE Sensitive.
What is the best food for puppies with allergies?
The PURE Sensitive Turkey & Rice Puppy and Junior variants are developed specifically for puppies with food sensitivities, using turkey as a single lean protein source alongside easily digestible rice. It contains no wheat, no gluten, and no artificial additives.
Is MERA PURE Sensitive suitable for dogs with Leishmaniasis?
MERA PURE Sensitive Turkey & Potato’s limited ingredient recipes may be a suitable option for dogs with Leishmaniasis, depending on the severity and your vet’s recommendations. We always recommend consulting your veterinarian before making changes to a Leishmaniasis dog’s diet.
