    AMAZING FOOD

    My Shiba Inu Midnight has major food allergies. When I switched her to Blue Buffalo Adult Chicken and Brown Rice her stomach got better. She didn't have all the food problems she had before. She is a lot more healthier and she lost the weight that the other food was giving her. She loves Blue Buffalo. She is over 9 years old now. When I get another puppy the new puppy is going on Blue Buffalo. I will never go back. I highly recommend this food to any dog owner. It's the best Holistic Food ever. Thanks Blue Buffalo for your Food. We are from Niagara Falls Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

    Gassy Frenchies.

    I have been giving this to my frenchies now for a few months. Due to our newest one having the most awful gas. This has helped a lot. I just wish they had more flavors for small breeds than just this one in pink bag. They both like it. But I like to have them eat a variety. So they don’t get tired of it.

    Those crunchy bits!

    My dogs dachshunds 13 and 5mis are very happy and healthy eating Blue Buffalo. However I did notice my puppy manages to skip most of the Lifesource bits/black balls. I wish we could figure out how to make them easier to eat for puppies. I want the nutritional benefits but I think they are too hard to crunch.

    Our #1 dog brand in our house!

    The great ingredients and high quality brought me to BB when my senior dogs health was declining. When they passed and a new pup came into our lives, I knew we were sticking with BB. I always look for that blue diamond for treats as well. Paying just a little more for a better quality of life for a member of our family is worth it!

    The best

    Switched both of my dogs to Blue Life protection formula chicken and oatmeal recipe. Both of my dogs are older and each have skin irritations because of their age we switched to this about 6 months ago and we have clear skin offer has grown back and my dog seem to be a little more active. Highly recommended

    Great dog food !

    I switched both my dogs from a cheap dog food that was giving no nutritional value, my dogs would pick through also. ever since switching their fur is softer and more shiny and their digestion is better as well. Less throwing up and upset tummies

    My dogs love this

    My dogs love this food. They eat their food so much faster than they did when we used other cheaper dog food brands. Is it expensive? Yes. But my pups are worth the extra money when i know they're eating good quality food.

    My puppy loved it!

    My french bulldog loved this food ! It made it easier for him to use the bathroom . The food before this made his constipated . I’m glad this food was able to make him go back to normal!

    i had my dog

    i had my dog on purina pro plan for a few months and noticed his stomach was always hard and making noise and his bowel was always too soft. i switched him over to this after a friend who is a vet tech recommended it and he has been great ever since. he loves this food and the ingredients are all natural which is nice. his stomach is back to normal and he is doing great!
