Amazing food for my senior dog
My dog is a senior. She is 16. My mom and I have been switch her dog food so many times. Until when I was dog sitting and watching TV and Blue Buffalo commercial came on and it convinced me to buy it for my dog. So I told my mom about it. She agreed with me. So we gave it a shot and my dog loves her new meals. We and I have been buying it. The only problem is my olders girlfriends 3 dogs won't stop eating her food and it makes me feel really upset and mad. Because her food is expensive. But I love it so much. I wish I knew about guys when I was 10 years old. It would have been so easy for me. But thank you so much

My old dog loves the non senior small breed much btr. He has a hard time eating and chewing this one compared to the other one. Too bad because the ingredients are geared for older dogs.

My two senior dogs have been enjoying Blue Buffalo Senior Small Breed food for over a year. They still are enjoying it very much including the smaller kibble. Will continue to purchase time and time again.

Glad my dogs food finally arrived today as I put the last of his food in his bowl this morning. It was ordered on July 15th and was damaged in transit and kept saying delivery will be updated, not until I called customer service.

Solved Vomiting but getting Fat
my 14# cockapoo was vomiting nightly with another brand. When I switched to Life Protection Formula small Breed Senior Dog she stopped vomiting and was more chipper. However, 6 months later and she has gotten so fat. I feed her 1 cup/day. she doesn't get the exercise in the winter as in the summer so maybe I need to reduce the amount to 3/4 cup/day. I'm worried she will start vomiting again from hunger.

Love
Love blue buffalo! My pup has always been a fan of this brand. Everything I get is always great quality. Never makes her sick and seems to have a good flavor. I only used this when she was little, have changed since she’s grown and gained weight. The price is somewhat high compared to other brands but the quality is worth it. And so is your pup!

We Love Senior Small Bites!
I've been feeding our small Schipperke mix senior Senior Small Bites for about two years now. She loves it, and her mobility and gastrointestinal health are maintaining well.

Excellent Dog Food - Solved My Dog's Vomiting Issues
I was using a different semi premium dog food for my 7 year old cockapoo but she was vomiting bile daily. I slowly switched her to blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula Senior Small bites and she has not vomited one time. She is happy and healthy and jumps in circles when it's meal time. I only wish it was a bit more affordable.
