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.

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.

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!

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

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 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 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!

My puppy doesn’t seem to like this food at all. I hate to waste a bag of food, so I tried adding chicken or beef broth and that worked for a few days, but then she quit eating it. It seems like we will never get through this bag. She will eventually eat it when she gets hungry enough, but I won’t be purchasing it for her again.

My puppy LOVES THIS! Now we've moved on to the same life protection formula for adult dogs, but he's been super healthy and had absolutely no issues with this food. I personally love Blue Buffalo - he gets the training treats they make as well, which are still his favorites!
