Miss Paula McCartney was on Blue Buff but picked out some bits & left on kitchen floor. Since our kennel uses SD thought I'd try before an overnight stay. I mixed it with BB and she gobbled up SD & left BB! She is 18 mon old and is often fatigued quickly so I am wondering if BB isnt giving enough nutrition. So far I'm impressed & Miss McCartney is snarfing down SD ! If this changes Ill update

I'm sure the quality of Science Diet is excellent, but the size of the chunks in this particular recipe (Adult Large Breed) was way too big for my dogs. I have two Black Labs, one medium sized and the other huge. They both had a little trouble chewing these chunks and did not attack their food ravenously as they usually do their previous dog food. I'll be going back to our previous dog food.

I switched our 2 labs to this food after recently reading vet concerns with grain free diets. They love the food, but then again, they eat anything. Science Diet has been a recommended food for years so I feel very comfortable feeding this. The kibble is very large in size, even for a large breed, but perhaps that slows down the rate at which they eat.

It is so convenient to have product shipped to the home without shlepping heavy bags in and out of the truck. I love the convenience of scheduling so I never have to worry about running out! And the free shipping is GREAT. My Vet recommended Science Diet as one of only 5 brands he feels are healthy for pets and it was so easy to change my order.

Our family has been going to the pet store to get food and treats for our doggies every month, but we love the convenience of having these items delivered to us.You can choose how often you want delivery to occur. Chewy.com also offers a discount for autoship, so we are saving money - $5 each time. I recommend using this service if you go through food and treats pretty quickly because you don't have to think about it!

I fed my dog science diet for large breed puppies until he was 1 and he loved it. I recently switched my dog off another brand because it had a powerful smell and was grain free. The kibbles are too large for him and he’s a 60 pound husky. He chews them and makes a mess but doesn’t really like them and won’t eat it. If trying it out, start with the small bag first.

I have a finicky Labrador. I have had her on weight management food for so long now and she looks amazing at 68 lbs! When we ran out of her normal food, she needed something new. She loves this food! Hoping it isn't first bag syndrome.

My 75 pound lab was having some stomach issues. I had her on iams which I’ve had for my other dogs in the past which is good. But since I switched to science diet she’s doing great . Love the product! And she loves it!

My vet recommended this food and it's amazing! I have a very sensitive blue heeler and a not so sensitive black lab. This food works for both dogs so I don't have to buy 2 different bags of food for my dogs! I love that this food is backed by science and testing. I read the ingredients and I can recognize most of them. Both of my dogs have nice coats and are very healthy. Super impressed by this food and wish a vet would have recommended it earlier.

My two Great Dane pups love the taste. The kibbles are on the bigger size so it forces them to chew more vs. just inhaling. A giant plus for me is that there has never been a recall.
