My now 4 yr old Chihuahua loves this brand. Previously I had him on Royal Canine, but I switched and found his stomach to be less upset and a super glossy coat of hair. The crunchies also help keep his teeth in great shape. Great quality, I do recommend.

We have 3 happy and healthy dogs and they all love Blue Buffalo! It’s pricey but it’s worth it to know that our pups are eating a quality food that gives them the nutrients they need compared to other dog food brands that are full of empty calories.

tanyapolis (verified owner) –
Perhaps a little on the pricey side but since it’s all my dogs eat, seems worth it. I have a German Shepherd whose weight I try to manage so he doesn’t end up with hip issues. He and my lab love this food and have shiny coats.

We left RoRo at a friend’s house during the holidays while we were on vacation and he started eating Rachel Ray’s dog food. We could not believe he gained a lot of weight in less than 2 weeks so we knew we had to do something… knowing the Blue Buffalo brand and knowing he was always used to this brand, we decided to try the “Healthy weight” formula and our boy lost all excess weight in no time… we decided to keep this formula since he is 10 and his metabolism seems to have slowed down and he absolutely LOVES it

This is the 2nd bag I’ve bought of this food abc the first bag the kibble was a different size and different color so I bought another bag and the kibble was normal but she has horrible gas all of a sudden. Was there a change in ingredients.

Great. I have a large dog and a small dog, they both love this brand, and they refuse to eat if we get a different brand of dog food.
Jessie89 (verified owner) –
I have been using this food for a while now. The last two bags I’ve had made my dogs pretty sick. I’ve narrowed it down to the little ‘healthy bits’ mixed in it. I will be changing brands. This food is too expensive to throw half of it away.
aannwrootbeer (verified owner) –
Ever since one of my dogs had stomach surgery to remove a foreign object, she has had issues with maintaining a healthy weight. Since putting her on this food, we have seen her slim down and looking great. It is easy on her system and she scarfs it down.

beckyk26 (verified owner) –
Started buying blue Buffalo about a year ago for my two pitties. After doing a little research on dog food ingredients & its nutritional value. I was appalled. Most of the leading national brands were mostly fillers & contain almost nothing essential for for my dogs health & well being. Blue Buffalo was different though with much healthier ingredients. It is just a little more expensive than what I was paying but definitely worth it. Their coats are shinier, the have more energy and seem healthier overall
Raji (verified owner) –
My 7 year old pup does not like to eat dry food. We tried several of them that are available on the market. Since nothing worked I started to cook for him. He loves to eat fresh food not to mention I have tried those ‘fresh” food also. But now he loves to eat blue buffalo with no fuss and wants more. As a pet owner I am happy to see he finally likes dry food.

[product:blue-buffalo-chicken-&-brown-rice-senior-dog-food] is the only kind of dog food my jab has eaten for 10 years. Keeps him happy and healthy. No waste products inside it, so there are no big dog bombs in my yard. It is well worth the price!!

Was recommended this by the vet after my dog gained weight and needed to lose 10 pounds. It’s higher in protein and lower in calories so feeding her this combined with daily walks helped her shed the pounds.

I wasn’t sure my girl was going to like this formula-the weight management. No problem, she loves it like she does all of her Blue Buffalo food. Wet & dry.

My dogs enjoy this and the kibble is a bit smaller for small breeds. It is better for them then the regular type.
arsahk (verified owner) –
Realized it’s a brand that bulks dogs so for a small dog like mine, not the best brand out there. Vet recommended to get off it.
kersleygirl (verified owner) –
While this product was easily gobbled up by my pup it was not great for his sensitive tummy. We kept him on this until he reached the weight the vet suggested and then we changed him to a homemade food. Major downside to this food was that it gave Porter massive poops.

I have been feeding my dog Blue Buffalo’s Life Protection Formula with chicken and brown rice for a while now, and I’ve seen great results. The ingredients are natural, with no harmful fillers or artificial additives. The nutritional value seems well-balanced, providing my dog with essential vitamins and minerals while maintaining a healthy weight. The digestibility is excellent; my dog has had no stomach issues, and her coat looks healthier and shinier. I appreciate the portion size guidelines on the packaging, which makes it easier to manage feeding. Additionally, the packaging is convenient with a resealable bag that keeps the food fresh for longer.

This is one of my favorite brands of dog food. My dogs absolutely love it and eat it up. I have given them other foods before that they refuse to eat and so I found this one and tried it and they love it. I love the ingredients and it as well as actual meet listed is the first ingredient and a high quality food. I’ve noticed a big difference in their attitude once they started eating this it’s a good price for the product and I definitely recommend!

I bought this dog food about 1 month ago for my Shih Tzu who had gained 3 lbs. She has always maintained a weight of 11 lbs & over the very old Winter had gotten up to 14 lbs. I could tell she just wasn’t her same active happy self so I set out to help get rid of those 3 lbs. My only problem was she is VERY fussy about her food! I ordered a bag of this dog food. At first she didn’t want to eat it so I had to get inventive. I cooked some 100% ground Turkey w/no seasonings & sprinkled about 1 tsp of it on top of this food; she gobbled it right down. As of now(about 4 wks later) she has lost 2 lbs!

We have a dog that is a pit bull/chihuahua mix. I call him an “Itty-Bitty Pitty”, but he has a weight issue. He is sneaky and will eat his food, as well as 2 other dog’s food and of course beg for human food to. We got him a slow feeder and tried other food formulas and finally we found this one and he really loves it. He was getting so chubby that it was affecting his movement now he is moving better and is more active. His weight is going down as well.

This is such great dog food for our 11 year old chihuahua. He’s chubby and we want him to stay around so we are working to help him shed some weight. He enjoys the taste of this and I feel great giving it to him with the first ingredients being protein

Initially my dog had no issues with this, but then suddenly she had on and off bloody diarrhea for a 1-2 weeks. It didn’t go away until I switched out her kibble.

I love this dog food brand! It’s super healthy and great quality! Although you should still add fresh meat & vegetables to your dogs diet. The dog food is expensive but worth the quality for your dogs health. Blue Buffalo Co.

This is my dogs favorite flavor! I’ve tried others but he won’t eat as much so I stick to this one. I read up on a lot of other dog food brands and found that this one was the best and also in my budget.

We’ve been feeding this kibble to my 7 year old Pit-bull for a year and she lost 20lbs. She used to way 95lbs. We took her to the vet this year in the first week of January and her new weight was 75lbs. The vet told us she is in a healthy state and well taken care of. I would highly recommend investing with this brand! Blue Buffalo Co Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula Natural Adult Healthy Weight Dry Dog Food, Chicken And Brown Rice, 24 Lb

My dog is pretty picky about dog food but seems to enjoy this! She easily gain weights so this helps her maintain the current weight she is at with also being walked twice a day. I definitely recommend this dog food!

My miniature schnauzer had put on a few pounds and we decided to try her on this food. She loves the taste and we can tell she has lost weight, and already become more active. We are a blue buffalo family for sure ! I feed all 4 of my dogs blue buffalo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great healthy ingredients and my dog enjoys every bite of it.

This is a great food for overweight and mature dogs. Easily chewed bite sized pieces are great for dogs with teeth challenges.

I got this because it has a high fiber content at 8%, which one of my dogs needs. Unfortunately, neither of my dogs like it.

My dogs likes so much. I bought for 2 years at least

I feed this to my mini dachshunds and they gobble it right up, even the fussy boy who has refused other brands. The vet says this keeps them healthy!
Granniema (verified owner) –
My dogs love it. They are eating better and have brighter eyes. I mix it with freeze dried chicken so they get additional protein and real meat.
SpockMa (verified owner) –
we switched to this because one of our mini dachshunds wasn’t so mini anymore. turns out the picky eater who is underweight likes it better than the regular type so it’s a win win for both of our boys! We only feed Blue

I tried to incorporate this food into the food that our dogs have eaten for the past 8 year because they are getting older. However, they pick this food out and spit it on the floor.
They do not like change.

My dog seemed to love this food. He is fairly picky and it can be difficult to get him to eat, but not with this! Will purchase again.

Blue Buffalo is a great food brand for dogs. I can trust knowing that paying a little more for my dogs food that they’re getting better ingredients for better health.

This is the only dog food I feed my babies. Getting up there in age and all 4 still act like 6-9 month old puppies. Minimal gas produced, seems to digest good and solid bowels

First time trying it out. Switching dog food to see if my dog will like it better.

We switched to Blue Buffalo after our dog we had before had bad stomach problems from a different brand. We wanted to make sure our puppy got the best from the start. We have fed him this food for 5 years and we have no complaints.

She love it and has no digestive problems which is very important

My 3 dogs really like this dry food. They also eat this version of the wet canned food for dinner. It comes via chewy so we don’t have to carry it from the store so that’s nice. Overall it’s a good food for them, we have a dog with stomach sensitivities and she likes this food so we’ll keep feeding it to them ❤️

My Yorkie Pooh loves it. He cleans the bowl especially when the Blue topper is added.
claudiam76 (verified owner) –
My dogs seem to have a problem with a lot of food. They are never interested and seem to only eat when they know they aren’t getting anything else. I found this food brand and they actually eat it when i first put it in the bowl
Pammie952 (verified owner) –
I only buy a couple of different foods for my dogs. This variety of Blue is one of them. I take the time to read the ingredients and nutrient information for my dog and cat food and have become very selective. So I am happy that this item is available at petsupplycanada. I do wish it was less expensive.

It is one of the healthiest foods for your dog. One of the most important things are there are no fillers. Keeps my dog strong with a healthy coat.

We have been using your products with several pets over the years and find what you offer is not only nutritious and healthy, but seem to give our buddies gastronomical pleasure especially when accompanied by a little roast beef and chicken

I love this dog food and so does my dog. Its a bit pricey so that can be a con but it’s worth it if it’s manages his weight and his digestion is better when he’s eating this food. I would recommend to other pet owners with overweight dogs

My dog has been eating this for couple years now without any complaint. I can’t really speak for the whole weight management claim, but I’m just happy my dogs happy with her food, and it’s not causing any hard on her.

I’ve been feeding all 3 of my dogs Blue Buffalo for years, and my 10 year old has put on a few pounds as her metabolism slows. She seems happy and eager to eat this variety of BB food, plus it helps maintain her svelte figure.

This is the only dog food we have ever given our peekapoo. The only thing I would say is a negative is there are two different piece sizes and she doesn’t like the smallest ones. She will leave them all over the house.

It’s good and it helps my dog gain healthy weight also it improved my dogs health by eating this 2 times a day

My dog loved this food and ate it for the first 2 years of her life (puppy food for year 1, this variety for year 2). However, she was starting to become overweight and had to be put on a diet. We cut back her portion sizes, but she was unable to lose weight on this food. We didn’t see any change until we switched brands. Overall, this food was great. It just didn’t work for our weight loss purposes.
