So glad we switched!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog loved the flavor, and I loved the nutritional facts, all natural non gmo. The packaging was beautifully designed and sealed wonderfully. I worried about stomach upset when I switched from my dogs original food. She had no issues once switched. The little tiny pebble was easy for her to break down and enjoy. I'm definitely glad we tried it and will be a forever food.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog really enjoyed this dog food. This is such a healthy alternative than his regular food. I love the healthy ingredients this food provides because he has surgeries and needs something nourishing. This was a great choice!

My dog’s food arrived ahead of the scheduled delivery date, so that was great! My products arrived in perfect condition and is exactly what I ordered. Blue Buffalo makes great dog food and my pup had no problem transitioning to the senior formula. I will continue to order from PetCo in the future.

Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time trying this brand and I gotta say it just might be worth the money. I have 4 dogs from 10 pounds to 100 pounds and they all had great experience with it. No upset stomach or issues with taste. Great ingredients and decent sized bag for the value.

We use this food as a kibble that is there all day for my pup after he has his breakfast. He really likes this food and doesn’t cause any discomfort or issues for him. He loves this food and we would truly recommend.

Questions

Sort by: Newest Answers

Currently feeding our 11 y/o medium sized mutt the weight control(yellow bag)Blue Buffalo and wondered if this would work just as well for weight control and possibly be better for her as far as bowel movements?

    I have a 42# 3 yr old corgi. I have been feeding him the Adult small bite Blue Buffalo. My vet recomended adding some cut green to help with weight control. Which of your foods is best for him?

    1. Not a vet but I do like the Blue Buffalo senior formula.  We have overweight dogs where we TRY to manage the weight by NOT feeding on demand, no table scraps, pick up bowl before days end, at least two 15/20 min walks/day.  They make up for their “starvation” by eating dirt, worms, trash outside yet they are still healthy.



    I HAVE A DOBERMAN, IS IT GOOD FOR HIM OR I HAVE TO BUY THE OTHER

    1. I had a Wheaten Terrier but I do not see why it would not be acceptable for a Doberman.



    Can you feed this to younger dogs as well

    1. Can you or should you? BB like most dog food companies make puppy and senior foods for good reason. Puppy's need more of many ingredients since they are growing, seniors need different Ingredients to fit their unique life stage. I would call Blue Buffalo's Customer Service 1-800 number to get their expert advice. Good luck with BB.



    Would this Senior dog food be good for an English bulldog that is over 10 years old?

    1. I had a Wheaten Terrier that lived to 13 until she contracted cancer that liked it.



    are ingrediants listed for 1 cup

    1. I have no idea. Jake weighs just under 50 pounds, & we give him 1 cup of food twice a day. That keeps his weight even. Jake has been eating this same food since he was 7 years old--he just turned 12. Our Vet thinks this is a very good brand, & Jake loves it!



    We know the food is processed and made in the USA but where do they get (source) their ingredients?

      I have a pitbull that can't have grain in her food I want to start her on blue dog food .??? She's 5 years young

        how many calories in a cup of life protection. small bite, chicken and brown rice

          What is the best way to keep Blue Buffalo fresh. My dog loves it when I first open the bag but gets pickier as time goes by.
