Great food with many benefits!
This dog food is perfect for my small adult dog: She is not quite a senior dog yet, but this Food has supported her through all of her phases. The food is small and easy for her to digest, while still having a good texture to clean her teeth. She is a very picky eater so it is nice knowing she is eating something that fits all of her needs. The food has a light smell and the packaging is easy to open and keeps the food fresh. I highly reccomend this food!

My dog stays healthy eating this
My fur baby, Pepper, loves this food. I tried to get a picture of her eating it, but she was wiggling too much. That’s how much she loves it. You can see her coat is shiny and she is very healthy. She has never had issues with digestion. I like that it comes in smaller bags, because she her portions are small and the food remains fresh to the end. I also appreciate the price, which is not cheap, but reasonable for what I’m getting.

Great qualities with this!
We got this food for our dachshund mix when he was about 2 years old and next month we think he’ll be 10, he’s a rescue so not 100% sure about his birthday. Anyway we took him to the vet today for a checkup and our vet bragged about how shiny his coat was and how muscular he still was for his age. Our dog is also still playful and energetic for his age and we believe this food has played a role in giving him that quality of life. This food has been great, we’ve never had any issues with it and our dog enjoys it!

It’s really tiny little bites
I have Yorki and whenever we feed him some other brand or other flavor of this food his stomach always reacts really bad to it. BUT after trying million of different foods, we found one the best one. It’s really also depends on the dog. Because I’m sure not all Yorki’s are going to like it, or maybe even some dogs might be allergic to it. You never know. But I definitely recommend to try.

My dog Stevie Lynn she loves blue buffalo and she loves those purple antioxidants but let me tell you if she has no teeth, but she surely can get that down. She loves it thank you Blue buffalo for making a good dog food that hasn’t been recalled.
