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).

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.

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.

I feed my dog Blue Buffalo food since he was a puppy. He loves it and is healthy. I rotate flavors to prevent allergies. His coat is shiny and he's a solid weight. I recommend this dog food.

Why so much brown rice? Isn’t it constipating?

What changed? We have used this food for years with no problem until recently. The dogs do not finish eating and they have the worst gas! Veterinarian recommended changing foods.

I feed to both of my dogs. A golden retriever and a miniature Australian shepherd. The Aussie does not like the life bits. She takes them out of her bowl and leaves them on the floor.
