My fur baby loves it.
I bought this almost a week ago and have been switching my fur baby over to this and she loves it. Her other dry dog food company only has 1 flavor and the food didn't contain any veggies or good things for her. Thank you Blue Buffalo.

Finally a dog food my picky dog will eat
I have an extremely picky and spoiled pitbull terrier… She will refuse to eat before she even tries anything she believes smells gross! But this food topped with a couple spoonfuls of pumpkin will get any picky dog to eat!!!! It’s a bit pricey for how much my size dog has to eat but so worth it

Something has changed in the formula.
My dog has been on this food for 2 years and recently they changed something in the formula. He has had a rash and vomiting ever since we started the new bag and the color of the food is much lighter than before.

My dog loves it!
I've been using this since we got Baxter 9 years ago. He eats every morsel! He is sensitive to grain, it makes him dry and itchy! This makes his coat shiny and lustrous!

I HATE this brand. I truly feel this is what killed my little Jack Russell. She was fine and then within two months developed a bladder tumor which was cancer.

I so wanted to love this food for my 2 dogs. It’s readily available and reasonably priced for a “higher end” brand. Unfortunately I purchased several bags over a period of time that were molded and buggy. I finally gave up.

10 out of 10 would recommend. My dog's hair coat is healthy, I give credit to the food as it is formulated to promote healthy dogs. Have used this product for many years and will continue to do so. At the higher premium price it satisfies as a high quality product!

I started using Blue
I started using Blue Buffalo a few years back when I wanted to switch my dog to what I thought was a more beneficial dog food brand for his overall being. I didn’t care about the price, because his health was more important to me. So, I started using the grain free dog food for Large Breed Dogs. There for a while it was good. My dog enjoyed it and that made me happy. However, when I bought two bags almost back to back that had issues with it, I thought to myself there is no way I should be paying this much money for dog food when it’s supposed to be the best and I keep having issues. The first bag I purchased with an issue ended up having “meal moths” and their moss like strings of webs inside the bad. The bag was within expiration so it became very alarming to me how this ended up that way. So, I got another bag and moved on. The next bag I purchased had almost no actual dry dog food in it but contained majority of the life bit’s they combine in with the dog food. Again, another thought came about as to why I am purchasing expensive bags of dog food that keeps presenting issues. So, I honestly ended up switching and have never ran into an issue like such. It may have been a 2 time fluke, but I don’t think I would ever recommend this particular dog food to anyone after the experience I had.
