Dogs are considered Seniors stating between 7-9 years old but you don't have to switch foods if your dog is doing good on it.
Is all Blue Buffalo dog food sourced and made in USA?
Answer by • Mar 27, 2020
All Blue Buffalo products are manufactured in the United States. Many of their ingredients, such as most grains and meats, like chicken, beef and turkey come from the United States. Lamb and venison can be free range from the United States or New Zealand. Rabbit is sourced from Europe, and trout can come from the United States or Canada. Where possible Blue's suppliers are instructed to source their ingredients from the United States. Where the ingredients are not readily available in the Unites States, such as many vitamins and minerals, their suppliers will only work with reliable foreign companies, and subject all ingredients to rigorous quality testing. None of the ingredients are sourced from China.

Our dog wouldn't transition to the Healthy Weight version
Our dog Peanut normally eats the regular version of this formula, but we were hoping she wouldn't have a problem transitioning to the Healthy Weight version since she's a few pounds overweight.
Other reviewers said their dog had no problem transitioning from the regular version, but for Peanut it was not to be.
Looks like we'll be donating this bag.

great for my Frenchie!
Our vet said our Frenchie needed to lose a pound or two to maintain a healthy weight. This dog food has been amazing in getting and keeping him trim and healthy. The serving size needs to be adjusted a bit for his size/breed. He loves the food and while it took an adjustment, his stomach is doing great on it-with no allergies or flares. We've been using for nearly 8 months and he's been loving it and digesting well. He's gotten so many compliments too lol.

Dry Dog Food?
It's crunchy and my Noodles loves it with Blue Delights mixed in. When I ask him if he's ready for dinner he comes running and jumps in delight while I'm mixing it.

CHEWY's Excellent
I don't even know when I began using Chewy's. My life would be awfully heard without their knowledge and support. At least 12 years and never a problem or mistake. Can't ask for more than that. No need to discuss Blue Buffalo. Outstanding product.

Unfortunately Not for My Dog
ALthough this may be a very good product it was not for my dog. I introduced the change in food very slowly but it still caused stomach distress for my Shih Tzu to the point where we had to go to the vet. I did not know what was causing her such pain. Luckily it was just gas. Very relieved and this was the only change she had in her diet so we know the food was not for her. I found a friend who was using this brand for her dogs, gave it to her and she is very happy with it.
