Our Lab is a pretty picky eater with a sensitive stomach, but he loves this food so much that he eats it right out of the bag! We switch between Blue Wilderness large breed flavors for him, and he seems to enjoy this over the chicken and red meat formulas. He is happy so we are happy!

My brand new bag had live bugs and what looked like shredded rope. The manufacturer said it was not from them and that it was possibly from the stores storage. I would think the bag is sealed enough to prevent that so I don’t know, but I will probably not buy this brand of dog food or from this store again.

I bought this within the last month for my German Shepherd mix, she had eaten Pedigree most of her life and after I noticed she had gained some weight & having other issues I switched her to Authority Healthy Weight & Joint Support but after comparing Blue Buffalo I decided to finally make the change. She had always enjoyed their treats, and would go grab them out of her treat basket, she LOVES this kibble, but I also add a tablespoon of the B.B. canned dog food or trail toppers… not only has she gotten down to a healthier weight but her coat has never been shinier or softer. She is more active, leaner and I love that she is getting the food she deserves. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who loves their pet as much as I love mine!

Both pyrs down in in a hurry.
One will only eat the Wilderness GF Salmon or something that I make several times a week.
I still make the homemade occasionally, but if she doesn’t stop eating the Salmon kibble, then I am satisfied.

I feed my dogs Blue Buffalo and they have always loved it, but the Wilderness Large Breed Adult Dog Food – Grain Free, Salmon has some bigger pieces and small pieces in it. My large German Sheppard unfortunately chokes on the little round pieces in the Salmon. It was expensive and I had to throw 90% of the bag away and went back to the Blue Buffalo chicken, meat etc..

The entire Blue Buffalo Wilderness line is great, this product is my perfect product because it’s focused for large breeds and is Salmon flavored. My dogs love the food and I love it too! I have 3 large breed dogs and one of them has a very sensitive stomach. We had her on prescription food until I realized that the BB I was feeding my other dog had more quality ingredients than the prescription food so I started looking to find the right line of food and settled on the wilderness line because of its high protein and grain free. The salmon is my dogs favorite flavor and I love that this is formulated for large breeds.

Our Catahoula Leopard Dog Mylo loves the salmon flavour Blue Buffalo. We started feeding Mylo this after our daughter gave us mylo. He loves mealtime now and he looks great and his coat is exceptional. Thanks Blue Buffalo

This was recommended by our local feed store. We have a German Shepherd who always seemed to be having ear infections that we couldn’t get under control. We went with the salmon formula since it is very low in yeast. The difference is night and day. Yes, it does cost more than most, but we have found that it seems to be much more filling, so in the end, we are not paying anymore money than we were on lower quality food.

My dog was scratching and licking his paw Fromm allergies with another brand , he’s been eating this one and loves it, much healthier too.

Good product but to much money for what you get so buy a different product

My dogs love this food! Glad we decided to try it!

My dogs like this product, but larger bags are needed. I order via “Door Dash” delivery because I don’t have transportation right now. The smaller bags cause me to have to order too often. Aside from that, the product is great.

This food had been great for my dog but I believe they may have changed the recipe. He is not as interested in it as he was and he developed a belly rash and was itching like crazy – no fleas. I tried a different food and after 2 weeks the belly rash was gone and he stopped itching. If there is a reformulation, it should be noted on the bag. It used to be a good food, no longer so sure if the quality is still there. And while it is no longer a good food for my dog, I’m not sure if, in general, it is still worth the premium price.

I have been feeding my dog this food for over 4 months and it seems to be a very good dog food. I have always fed him quality food and this brand is my substitute for a previous food that is difficult to purchase (from a different supplier). I will always feed him this food and its supplied locally at petsupplycanada.

My dog usually eats the chicken, but we were on holidays and the only option available was the salmon which he lived

I purchased this as I am starting to transition my one year old Doberman mix from the Blue Buffalo Life Protection large breed puppy formula. He has been on Blue Buffalo all of his life and he is lean, shiny and full of energy. He really loves this salmon flavored one…seems to enjoy it more than the chicken variety. I definitely recommend this product.

I buy this brand of Blue Buffalo as a special treat because the dogs love it better than any other brand. My three dogs consume the food in record time.

Mabel loved this dog food – I literally couldn’t get it into the bowl before she started gobbling it down. She seemed more energetic and lively after eating 🙂 Glad to make her happy. I wish it were a bit more affordable, but anything for her lol!

I have a 4 year old husky who is extremely picky. We’ve tried so many foods over the years just for him to turn it away. He’s never been excited about his food until now! He absolutely loves this food and eats his bowl right away. Highly recommend for picky dogs.
