I purchased the 2 30lb bag deal and they arrived in one box. When I opened the box took the top bag out with no problem. When I took the 2nd bag out I found a good sized hole at the top of the bag. The food had spilled out of the bag and was all along the bottom of the box. I threw out the loose kibble and couldn’t decide to use the open bag but I did and my pups have not had any problems so far. I was pretty surprised that my Chewy order would arrive damaged. I’ve never had any problems with any of my past purchases before. It didn’t happen in transit but before it was packed in he box. I didn’t call Chewy because I felt I had no proof but my word that it arrived in this manner nor took any pictures. I bring this to your attention so that you may prevent this error from happening to me or anyone else in the future. I believe all products packaged for shipment have to be checked for the integrity of the shipment. I will continue to use Chewy but if it happens again I probably won’t
After my my vet got mad at me for over feeding (actually I'm guilty of over-treating) my Lab. Koda should weigh 75 lbs He weighs 94. I was skeptical about weight control dry foods working for us. Further, I didn't really want to cough up alot more money for what I thought was overpriced trendy dry dog food. Wrll, even though I had to tighten my budget. my baby boy gobbles it right up. It also must be easier on his stomach - you see he has Colitis - so we had to find a well balanced food, weight controlling, easy on his digestion & tasty. This seems to be it! Yay!
It smells awful.. stunk up my house for days. We thought it was some kind of dead animal my dogs or cat dragged in & hid somewhere. My non-picky boys refused to eat it. No smell once I got the food out of the house. Going to ask a shelter if they're interested in taking it. It cost a lot, would appreciate a partial refund or credit.
Great food! My vet thought my lab mix needed a weight reduction diet and recommended this product since she was on normal Blue Buffalo prior! My dog transitioned to this food and really enjoys it! No changes in bowel habits either! Hopefully, her weight will go down some!
I started my yellow lab on this a while back. She has a sensitive stomach and I went through several brands looking for something that would not upset her stomach. This provides a well balanced diet for her and she looks forward to mealtime.
My dogs like this better than regular. They quit shedding as much and have a shine and glow about them. They don't go to bathroom as often either. It was everytime they went out with Pedigree, now I don't see them go anymore. They are good dogs and I want them to be healthy and off GMO feed.
My 7 year old (still a puppy) very active Samoyed is doing very good with Blue Buffalo. We heard about the quality of this food and decided to try it....he loves it. Thank you Blue
My dog loves this food, she was gaining weight, so put her on this and now is doing great. Our dog is large Australian Shepherd, this 30pd. was a good size for her but is being offered in 35pd. which will be even better for us, will last 5 month's for her.
My dogs like the healthy weight the best. I have noticed improved coats and they don't use the bathroom as often. With Pedigree they were always ready to go. Haven't seen them once with new food. They aren't as active and I need to control weight more. I hope my new kittens like their cat food.
This continues to be the only food my 9 year old Cavalier can manage. Tried moving him over to Purina Pro weight management with terrible results and allergic reaction. This food seems to be one of the best with no soy or byproducts and keeps his weight undercontrol.
