[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great dog food. My dog was having some severe skin issues. When I switched her to this food it started to improve and we no longer have any issues. The packaging is nice and there isn’t a strong scent. She loves it and eats every last bit I give her.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our family loves Blue dog food for our dogs! The dogs eat it right up. I love that there’s ingredients are so natural and it has seemed to help both of our dogs overall health, skin coat, and somewhat add the much needed pounds to them as they are very active! The c packaging is a plus as it is always in a durable bag to keep the food fresh!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My doggy nephew uses this brand already so I was excited to get this deal for him. He really enjoyed this flavor. And there were no strange effects with changing up the meat from chicken to lamb. He is getting older so this is a great brand for him since he is still high energy. I recommend to try this!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog loves BLUE life. We have been buying this since he was a puppy. We recently decided to change up the flavors for him and landed on this one. He went crazy over the lamb and brown rice, that it may be his favorite flavor now. The pieces are great for adult dogs. They also make a smaller pieces for the little bread dogs. There is something for every puppy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved the size of the bag and it’s filled nearly to the top with dog food! My dog has a pretty good time digesting it as his potty breaks have remained consistent and stools how they should look. The first ingredient is a protein which is a very good sign! It smells like a traditional dog food so not bad at all!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog lived this food! We liked that it comes in two different shapes, perfect size! I found this to be a great option since my dog sometimes gets tired of the common chicken based foods. Also, it doesn’t upset her stomach. I though i the lamb smell would be steong, but it’s not at all, neither leaves my dog a bad breath. I defenitely recommend it!

MAKE IT RESEALABLE!

Dobetter - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
Shouldn’t have to buy a separate container to protect the food from pests just because I bought a larger bag. Makes zero sense.

Made with real lamb!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They use REAL lamb! I would rate this higher if my dog would eat it. But for whatever reason my dog decided to be picky and not try this food. My parents dogs on the other hand have been eating this Blue Buffalo lamb dog food for a couple months now and they love it! Personally I think this is very over priced especially for having 2 dogs that would finish this in a day but it might be better for smaller breeds!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dogs love this food, smells like any other kibble but the ingredients are great. They seem to digest it very well and it did not give them any issues when trying this new food. I also like how your able to seal the bag once opening it as others don’t provide that. Overall, I think this is a great option for my dogs and will keep giving it to them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dog food smell pretty good. The size is small for my dog to bite. And the first ingredient stated that it is real lamb, and no product meal and artificial flavors. My dog loves to have this dog food. I would purchase it next time.

Chow chows have a very special diet that requires a very special brand. I chose blue buffalo because its what they prefer over anything else Ive tried. They're actually excited about eating. Even if its the same flavor as yesterday. My chows both have a severe chicken allergy. The lamb, beef, and salmon are my go to. They especially love the salmon. I dont quite care for the smell, but they dont seem to mind it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing that grabbed my attention with this dog food was that the smell of it when I opened the bag smelled incredible just like a food that you were I would eat. Looking at the ingredients I can understand why because it uses really high-quality actual food ingredients which makes me really happy when feeding this to my dog. My dog absolutely loved this and cleaned her bowl each and every time she was fed this lamb and brown rice, dog food.
