Merrick Recall History
Merrick has no FDA recalls on record since 2019 in the federal recall feed we track — that absence isn't a guarantee; see the coverage note below.
THE FACTS, ONE SENTENCE —
The safety record
FDA recall records for Merrick
Joined from the FDA's own Recalls, Market Withdrawals & Safety Alerts feed (Animal & Veterinary / Pet Food category, 2019–present) plus curated pre-2019 records — the same source as our full recall feed, filtered to Merrick. A recall on this list is a documented fact, not automatically a reason to avoid the brand today — read the reason and date for context.
In the FDA feed we track — 2019 to present, plus curated historical records back to the early 2000s for major incidents — Merrick has zero documented recalls. That's what's currently on the public record, not a guarantee: small or older recalls can predate our window, get filed under a different responsible-company name, or simply not make it into the FDA's searchable datatable. Absence of a listing here means we found nothing, not that nothing ever happened.
Join of data/recalls.json (FDA Animal & Veterinary recall feed, 2019-present) + data/recalls_historical.json. This is NOT a complete lifetime recall history; recalls predating 2019 (or absent from the FDA datatable) are not represented unless curated in recalls_historical.json.
