I chose this food for my dog because it was the only one without a “filler” ingredient high in the list. Although I’ve been feeding cheaper brands to dogs in the past, I’ve since learned about the potential pet health impacts of doing so. Overall, it’s working out but not as well as it could be with my picky eater.
My dog’s a fan of several different varieties of the kibble, but *not* the LifeSource Bits (the little brown kibbles that have all the antioxidants that are one of the main benefits). He picks them out and will only eat them when he’s *really* hungry. I’ve read plenty of reviews on pet-oriented sites about dogs who do the same.
If your dog is not a picky eater, the kind who never finds the pill you hide in the food, you’ll probably have no issues with this brand. If your dog picks out the “bits,” you may have to feed him a little less or choose a different brand.
Our Shiz Tzu, Kodiac, was having allergy problems, causing Kodiac to chew on his paws, to the point of bleeding. We were told about Blue Buffalo. We tried the Lamb and Rice, and Kodiac, loves it and has since stopped chewing on his paws. We love the wonderful products that Blue Buffalo uses for thier pet food, it very nutritus! I would highly recommend Blue Buffalo pet food for all those who wish to feed thier pets the very best!
I have been feeding Blue Buffalo foods to my Golden Retriever, who is almost 3 years old, since I brought him home as a 7 week old puppy. As a veterinary technician, I am aware of many common health problems in the breed, allergies being one of them. Knowing that corn and other fillers can be the cause of allergies, I wanted a food that only used the best ingredients. I looked into many different brands that were reported to use quality ingredients. Blue Buffalo, it turned out, was the only such brand that was readily available in my area.
The breeder had been feeding Eukanuba Puppy food, so I started “Bruce” on a mixture of the Eukanuba Puppy and the Blue Buffalo Puppy. He would actually pick out the Eukanuba and only eat the B.B. kibbles (one of my coworkers reports that her Dachshund puppy did the same when she switched him to B.B.). So, I ultimately gave up on trying to mix the foods and just fed straight B.B. He would, sometimes, pick out those “Lifesource Bits” and leave them scattered all over the floor but is now a voracious eater and is not picky at all.
As he is now an adult, I have been feeding him a variety of the B.B. flavors. I started him with the B.B. Large Breed formula, then switched to the Fish and Sweet Potato, then the Lamb and so on. I am hoping that by rotating the formulas, I will be able to prevent or, at least, cut down on any food allergies and provide him with a healthy variety of nutrients. Since he quickly scarfs down any food I put down for him, I can’t see that he has any preference to flavor. He loves them all.
I can report that, to date, “Bruce” has been an extremely healthy dog. His coat is thick and shiny, his eyes are clear, and he is a very solid 95 Lbs. Everyone that sees him oohs and aahs over how handsome he is. I know a lot of that is genetics but I’m sure Blue Buffalo had a little something to do with it, as well.
My three dogs love this food. It is the only one I’ve found that seems to appeal very much to all of them. My oldest pup (age @15 we think) has got more spring in his arthritic old self, and they all have beautiful, shiny coats and clear eyes. I would recommend this to any dog lover and their beloved pet.
