Not happy with the way my products were packaged. The box was paper thin and had holes in it. Looks like the bottom came out and taped back with packing tape. the lid was open on the box when placed on my front porch.

I put my dog on this food a couple of years ago when he needed to lose some lbs….he lost the weight and has maintained a healthy weight since. My Golden is 6 years old…has great regular digestion on this food unlike others before. Highly recommend.

Great food for picky eaters
We switched our senior dog to this food when we just needed her to eat. After finding her in our puppies food we switched her to back to blue adult healthy weight and that seemed to do the trick. We also were able to add water to the food and feed them directly which was amazing .This food keeps them on their paths but with flavor in mind. The bag of food is incredibly affordable for the size and servings.

Excellent For ALL OUR DOGGIE BABIES.
We've only had" rescues" and some have come to us WELL.OVER FED . This has helped them lose weight ( safely !! ) and still provide the nutrition that they need to stay healthy and maintain a shiny ,glossy coat. We got a Golden Retriever and she was fed some generic farm brand ( her coat was dry and flaky ) . Once I got her switched over to Blue Buffalo Healthy Weight ,she learned how to eat at a slower pace , and her coat became soft and shiny and glossy . She lived until passing at 12yrs 8mos with a tumor on her spleen..We also found that when the dogs get up in age and aren't as active ,the lower calorie helps keep them from putting on weight and adding stress to their joints .We're currently on our 5th &6th rescue dogs as " family " . I'm NOT including the FOSTER DOGS WE'VE HAD. (That were saved from euthanasia, for the most UNBELIEVABLE REASONS YOU CAN THINK OF; lack of space, can't walk straight on a leash( had an ear infection) , .MORE DOGS WERE SAVED WITH GOOD NUTRITION.... BLUE BUFFALO. HERE ARE MY CURRENT PUPS ,.LOLA ( Black Lab. & Pepper( Australian Cattle dog).

Recipe change?
I have fed my dog this food for years. She has suddenly developed horrible smelling frequent gas, tummy grumbles, and changes in bathroom habits. Has the recipe changed?

I dislike that it is false advertising. I have reported this problem several times. The product is listed as a 6 pound bag and I always receive a 5 pound bag.

Recipe change?? Something’s off.
I have been using this for my miniature schnauzer since she was off her puppy formula. Now all of a sudden her skin is breaking out. Will be switching to a different brand.

Only The Best For Our Babies
We have a rescue corgi and she loves her Blue Buffalo Chicken and Brown Rice alternated with Lamb and Brown Rice. Her coat has become very soft and shiny since we rescued her and started her on Blue. All of our previous rescue pups were fed Blue and they lived to be 16 and 18 years. We truly believe it contributed to their longevity.
