Why is chicken the only option

My dog has a sensitive stomach to chicken and has been on lamb for 5+ years. I want to switch him to senior food but the only option is chicken. I’m very disappointed.

I have bought this for 8 years now. My 15 year old Chiweenie Rosie, loves it. Just wondering what the difference is between this one and the Wilderness one with meaty chicken pieces in it?
Perfect smaller kibble!

I started using this within the last month, and my two old chihuahuas (15 and 18) have less problems eating this after having some teeth pulled. It is small enough that they just about don't have to chew it to swallow it.

We started feeding our dog / baby blue buffalo about 6 years ago after meeting representative at pet store. Pleased with how our 14 year old brittany spaniel SASSYl eats her food and how well she looks. FYI -All readers of this post I just realized there are scan tags in bag whereas you can earn cupons .

I've been feeding them Blue forever, and the Senior small breed since they were 8 yrs old. They love this food and I think it's helped them stay fit and healthy. Love the soft dog treats, also.

Large Breed Kibble with Tiny Kibble Pieces - ???
5 out of 5 stars
Tonya - 2 years ago

We love Blue Buffalo. Our Labs were on it for years. No more ear infections and shinny coats. My son's Rottie likes it but he picks out the tiny kibble and leaves it all over. Is there a Senior Large Breed food by Blue without the tiny annoying pieces? He gets 3 cups twice a day so the clean-up of the tiny kibble isn't worth putting the vacuum away.

My small pup loves this kibble! It’s the perfect size for his small mouth. I mix it with a splash of chicken broth to add a little taste for my dog and he loves it. I purchase a bag about once a month, and even though it gets pricey, it’s worth the value for my aging dog.

My dog is 12 years old and switching over to this brand has helped him a lot. This is easy for him to chew on, easy on his stomach, and has lots of good nutrients for my elderly pup. My dog leaves his bowl clean after his meals!
