Have been giving my Jasper this food for about 6 months. He has skin allergies which give him a rash sometimes, Since he has been on Blue Buffalo I have noticed his skin is a bit healthier and the rash has subsided.
Hands down the healthiest choice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My blue eyed sky, is getting older. She is over weight and limps around. We were worried that we might have to put her down soon, but since switching to blu buffalo blu life protection formula with its natural ingredients and nutrition, she clearly loves. I think my old girl has a little life in her yet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our dog really only eats chicken flavored foods. So far she seems to be liking this. She’ll eat her whole bowl but it does take her longer than our normal brand. I’ve noticed no bad side effects or upset tummy with her!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stuff is awesome and the bag is amazing the material is thick and reusable. From my pictures you can see there is different dog food pieces not all the same. So far my dog has had no issues and eats it very fast she loves the taste. Most dog foods seems to be oily this one is not and appears to be moist with leaving a residue on the hand. From the back of the bag this food hits all the marks for nutrition and evens has some she might need. This a good choice for dog food and will buy again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Chance is our senior dog. I feed him differently than my younger (fur-baby) Chelsea. I recently tried Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula Senior Dry Dog Food, Chicken & Brown Rice, and Chance loved it. It is easy on his stomach and made with high-quality ingredients. When Chance sees the Blue Buffalo dog food package, he gets happy and wags his tail fast. Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior dogs is a great product I highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Pearl girl absolutely loved this dog food. She's rather picky with her kibble and only eats a bit here and there, but she really liked this and ate a bowl in you sitting. I like that the kibble is better quality without unnecessary ingredients and that the bag keeps the food fresh. I'll definitely be buying her more of this dog food from Blue!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This formula is made out of chicken and brown rice, which my dog likes. The crude protein is 18% and crude fat is 10% which is slightly higher than what I’d expect for a senior dog formula. My dog is able to chew these quickly due to their size and texture which is softer than other brands. Overall a well a balanced diet depending on the dog’s needs.
Both our Seniors love it!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First things first this is my favorite brand for my dog. She's getting old, she'll be 12 this year. She's still pretty healthy but the senior option is best for her as she's getting older. She really enjoys this brand. It's pricier but it's worth it. She eats it all as soon as i put it in her bowl and never puts her nose up for it. I like the life source bits in it, and it's nutritious for my old girl. Great brand!
