Surprisingly quick results!
By MaxsMom on Apr 12, 2021
My dog has had skin issues that caused him to scratch and chew himself raw. We've tried prescription and over the counter meds and skin shots. We tried another food suggested by the vet, nothing has worked well. I discovered True Solutions Perfect Coat Coat and Skin Formula on Chewy.com and ordered it. Even during the transition period I already saw an improvement in his chewing and scratching! I'm beyond delighted with the help afforded to Max! Thank you for this product!

Picky dog approves!
By nlm27 on Feb 26, 2021
I have a picky dog with chicken allergies and sensitive skin. I have been feeding her this food along with the Missing Link supplement for 2 months now and her coat has never been softer/shinier and she is overall less itchy! She can be such a picky eater too but is happy to eat her Blue Buffalo. Plus you cannot disagree with the whole ingredients and no by-products! My vet wanted my dog on a grain inclusive food and recommended Purina Skin & Coat but I wanted something more wholesome. The answer? Blue Buffalo Perfect Coat. It is the perfect food for my mix, calorie content isn't too high and it is chicken free! She has short fur and this food has helped make it so silky!

New food to us
By LizS on Mar 29, 2021
Rigley’s food was no longer available so I had to switch. He has to have fish as the protein, so we tried this. He absolutely loves it. He liked the other food but he gobbles this right away. Great choice for him.

Healthy coat

Coat is noticeably softer
By Frankie on Dec 30, 2020
I had originally received a sample bag of this food from a friend and gave it to my rat terrier. I was actually surprised when I realized after a couple of weeks his first was quite a bit softer. I ordered a small bag and mix it in to his less expensive food to save a little money.

Outstanding Customer service
By Lucca on Dec 7, 2020
I ordered the wrong type of food with my auto ship. When I reached out to Chewy CS and explained my situation, they immediately said not to worry, we’ll send you the correct food, and to the. Donate the bag we received to a friend or local per shelter, in which we did give it to a local shelter. This is TRUE customer service! We HIGHLY recommend Chewy for all your pet needs! Thank you, Chewy Team!

Great for allergy prone dogs!
By Taylora on Nov 5, 2020
I am still on the first bag of this food but, already I am seeing a huge improvement in my dogs allergies. I had tried everything before this with no relief for his skin. He was put on Royal Cannin Hydrolyzed protein and when that didn't work, our vet switched to RC Ultamino. He would still get raw blistered skin all over his belly as well has lose massive spots of fur and awful ear infections. He is a lab/pitt mix and I was told food allergies are common for them? I was so happy when I read promising reviews for this dog food and so Blue perfect coat has been a miracle to us. The only con is he didn't take to the flavor at first, but as we feed more he's developing a taste for it.

This one wasn’t for us
By EliseA on Oct 24, 2020
We ordinarily love blue Buffalo. I tried using this on a mixed breed chi we just got into it rescue with coat issue and after 2 weeks use it has done nothing so the claims on this are not true in my opinion. However it was very easy to get her to switch from one food to this so in that sense it’s great.

Dog Didn't Want to Eat It, Cat Loved it...
By Savviee on Nov 6, 2020
My dog did not want to eat this and I ended up having to switch his food. But everytime I tried to feed it to him I would find my cat snacking on it later. I know cats shouldn't eat dog food and that's why we stopped her but she enjoyed it.

Unsure, still mixing in
By Mstarat on Oct 3, 2020
At the time of this review I am still mixing this dry food in with current dry food since we recently received this product to try in exchange for an honest review of the food. Our dog isn't picky but can't tell if it helps with his skin and coat at this time. If it does then it will be added to our purchases from Chewy. We have an adult mixed breed dog with occasional issues and allergies.
