Great quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have tried many brands over the years but Blue has provided the best quality food. My dog seems to have more energy since eating this food and her coat is beautifully shiny and thick! I would say this food has truly made a difference and I highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free from Influenster and Blue Buffalo in exchange for my honest review. I was excited to receive this sample for my old little lady Dixie as it is always hard to find a food she enjoys that agrees with her stomach. She loved the food and ate it all, which doesn't happen with most food we have tried. However, it did not agree with her at all, and she ended up throwing it up 2 different times. I was really hoping since it had such good ingredients and Blue Buffalo is known for its quality that it would work for her, however even though she loved the taste, it did not agree with her sensitive stomach.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ingredients and taste first the dog didn't bother him. All the nutritional for older dogs is easier for them to digest. The small bites are easier for seinor dogs.

Review of BLUE Chicken and Brown Rice Recipe

lidak4_8104

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ***Incentivized review*** I recently tried the BLUE Life Protection Formula Chicken and Brown Rice Recipe for my 11-year-old Chinese Crested. She’s usually picky and prefers freshly cooked meals, but she ate this when I first opened the bag. The kibble smells fresh. While it’s not her favorite compared to home-cooked food, it’s a good option for senior dogs needing balanced nutrition.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After 30 days of feeding my senior dog the Blue Life Protection Formula, I’ve noticed real improvements in his energy and digestion. He took to the food right away, which was a relief since he can be picky. His stools are more regular, and his coat looks shinier. I like that the ingredients are clearly listed and feel confident knowing it’s made for senior dogs. The resealable packaging is convenient and keeps the food fresh. It’s been a smooth transition, and I’ll likely stick with it moving forward. Great texture ✅ Great nutrients✅

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My fur baby loved this formula. It’s small enough for him. He is a picky eater and he has taken very well to his new food. The smell isn’t awful as it is with some dog foods.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Safe to say my dog Vader loved the food! It was gone very quickly which tells me the taste was great. Ingredients were fit for my dog who is older. Will keep trying to see the difference in performance for my dog. The packaging was easy to open.

Questions

1 - 10 of 24 Questions
Sort by: Newest Answers

Currently feeding our 11 y/o medium sized mutt the weight control(yellow bag)Blue Buffalo and wondered if this would work just as well for weight control and possibly be better for her as far as bowel movements?

    I have a 42# 3 yr old corgi. I have been feeding him the Adult small bite Blue Buffalo. My vet recomended adding some cut green to help with weight control. Which of your foods is best for him?

    1. Not a vet but I do like the Blue Buffalo senior formula.  We have overweight dogs where we TRY to manage the weight by NOT feeding on demand, no table scraps, pick up bowl before days end, at least two 15/20 min walks/day.  They make up for their “starvation” by eating dirt, worms, trash outside yet they are still healthy.



    I HAVE A DOBERMAN, IS IT GOOD FOR HIM OR I HAVE TO BUY THE OTHER

    1. I had a Wheaten Terrier but I do not see why it would not be acceptable for a Doberman.



    Can you feed this to younger dogs as well

    1. Can you or should you? BB like most dog food companies make puppy and senior foods for good reason. Puppy's need more of many ingredients since they are growing, seniors need different Ingredients to fit their unique life stage. I would call Blue Buffalo's Customer Service 1-800 number to get their expert advice. Good luck with BB.



    Would this Senior dog food be good for an English bulldog that is over 10 years old?

    1. I had a Wheaten Terrier that lived to 13 until she contracted cancer that liked it.



    are ingrediants listed for 1 cup

    1. I have no idea. Jake weighs just under 50 pounds, & we give him 1 cup of food twice a day. That keeps his weight even. Jake has been eating this same food since he was 7 years old--he just turned 12. Our Vet thinks this is a very good brand, & Jake loves it!



    We know the food is processed and made in the USA but where do they get (source) their ingredients?

      I have a pitbull that can't have grain in her food I want to start her on blue dog food .??? She's 5 years young

        how many calories in a cup of life protection. small bite, chicken and brown rice

          What is the best way to keep Blue Buffalo fresh. My dog loves it when I first open the bag but gets pickier as time goes by.
