Our almost 6 yr old GSD loves it. she was previously on Victor but towards the end when they had the recall she never really wanted to eat it. After the recall we switched to Blue Buffalo. She scarfs it down! Absolutely loves it. Note it did take about a week or 2 for her body to get used to it. Meaning she did have runny ….. you get the idea. you can’t just switch food and not expect your dogs p**p to be perfectly fine. She’s been on it just about a month now and we’ll be sticking with this food unless something else comes up. Side note- love the way Chewy handled the recall notice and let us know as quick as they could and helped us out on the new food!
I bought a 5lb bag of Lamb and Rice and a 5lb bag of Chicken. I like to give my dog g a selection. I’m very happy with what I purchased and so is my dog. I never had a bad purchase from Chewy.com. I lost my favorite dog on January 19, 2023 and Chewy sent me a dozen long stem roses for my loss and told me to keep the medication that I had just ordered for my dog. That took my breath away. Every time I look at the picture of the roses I thing bout my favorite dog and how much it meant to me for how Chewy handled the situation. I won’t use anyone but Chewy.
The dog food was wrongly delivered to my neighbor, across from me, on the ground floor. Am on the second floor. So I had to carry the 30 pound dog food, across and then up the stairs! Not the service I was expecting!
I switched my treeing Walker coonhound/pit bull mix to Buffalo blue from Purina One True Instinct for a better quality of food. He has had persistent diarrhea even with a slow transition to blue Buffalo food. I will now be transitioning him back to Purina One. I’m disappointed that a dog food so expensive would give this result. Sigh
If you go to the store, they don’t always have what you need and your pet is the one that suffers by having to eat something they’re not used to. Not with Chewy and it shows up at your door. FANTASTIC!
Chewy ran a great deal with two bags of Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula, Lamb and Brown rice. It’s nice to have an extra bag on hand.
We just switched to adult food with our golden doodle otis. Originally using the chicken based formula (we reaped the consequences) and being forced to switch flavors due to some digestive issues. The change was slow, but he loves his food now and has no digestive issues.
I am always concerned with reliable food resources that don’t suffer supply insecurity. Hope this one will not disappoint.
I have been feeding my dogs this food for generations. They love it and they are very healthy. I'm sticking it with what works so well.
Have a dog with a bit of a sensitive stomach. He eats and digests this food with no issue. He is quite healthy.
