My 2 year old, 35 lb bernedoodle loves this food. It is the perfect size for her to chew without just swallowing it down. Or had never given her stomach issues. Great brand that I trust for my dog.

My dog wouldn't eat it. I even tried mixing it with wet food. She would push the bowl away

Smelly poop

This formula makes my puppy's poop smell horrible. I can be 16 ft away and after she 💩 poops it will knock you on your butt. I have read similar reviews online. I purchased the largest bag of 🐕 dog food so now I have to live with the most rank smelling farts and piles of poop. No happy in Indiana

when i first got my puppy this is what she was eating. the ingredients are healthy and good. my puppy really enjoyed this product. the food is small enough for them to digest. it is a bit on the pricier side but so worth it!!

Our fur baby just loves this food. The smaller bits are easy for her to eat. Moxie is a Havanese and she is very active. Not just because she is a puppy, but due to her breed. When we got her she was 3 months old and was eating an off brand.I wanted her to have a quality food. We had seen your commercials and decided to try it. I could tell it was a good quality brand because it was a different type than what she use to, she never diarrhea.

Does this meet AAFCO standards?

    Does any of my mini australian shepherd lovers feed there puppy this? How is it

      Is this safe for cavapoos?

      1. Cavapoo isn’t a real breed. It’s not a high standard breed that should be catered to special needs. So yes it’s safe for any mutt.



      HI i have a pitbull puppy can i start feeding him blue buffalo life time proteccion

        I have a 5 month old Silky Terrier, when i got him we had a issue with Giardia, he was on the pet store food and hated it, then we went to EUKANUBA he stopped eating so now we are trying blue, is this a good idea. im trying find something he will eat.

          I have a 4 month old puppy that I have been feeding Purina dog chow. Should I switch him to BB puppy

          1. I would, we bagged my rough coat Collie Blue puppy food till she was one year old compared to my daughter who bought a puppy from the same litter and my puppies hair and other features are Beautiful with a full head of hair and hers has not grown to the same extent as mine with very little hair as well. I think blue is a great food, she is on the adult now.



          I have a boston terrier puppy and he picks out all the brown circle nuggets in the puppy food. Can you tell me what the brown circle food is that he doesn't like? Thanks for your help.

            How many calories per cup?

            1. Puppy food should stop 7mths in and you can switch to dog food. At your dog's age dog food should remedy the situation.



            What is the country of origin of the ingredients for this product

            1. From everything I researched about this food, it is all USA manufactured I believe the processing is done in Wisconsin.



            can u switch flavors of bb food just to change or shoud u stay with same flavor just orderd my first bag

            1. Dogs are happy to have a tasty, healthy food. Switching dog food, whether flavor or brands can be very hard on their digestive systems. Before my older dogs passed on, they were fed the same flavor and brand for 7 years.
