Great for skin allergies!,
May 4, 2009
by rose825
from Omaha, NE
Pros: prevents skin allergies, tastes great
"I bought this food after a PetSmart associate recommended the food for my cocker's skin allergies (she said she used it for her dog who had allergies as well). My cocker was on Science Diet before, and kept developing red, bumpy rashes and significant dandruff. I ran the food choice by my vet, who said that clients of hers have had good luck with the food.
My cocker LOVES the food. Since switching to this food about 3 months ago, his skin issues have dramatically decreased. His recurring rash has not returned. His dandruff has almost completely cleared up. His coat is very shiny.
My other dog hasn't been switched yet, as I am using up the rest of the Science Diet, but he is constantly trying to steal this food out of my cocker's food bowl because it is so good. I plan on switching my other dog to this food soon.
While it is slightly more expensive than Science Diet, the dogs actually eat less of it. My cocker was getting two cups of Science Diet a day, but his weight for Blue Buffalo food falls into 1 1/2 cups per day. So even though it costs a little more, the dog actually eats less, so costs even out.
As far as other reviewers who have mentioned gas, I have not noticed any gas issues with my cocker.
I have been very impressed with this food and would recommend it to anyone."

Amazing Food,
April 13, 2009

from Tuscaloosa,AL
"This food is excellent! I have two dogs a Pom named jake and a Mini Doxie named Lady I saw an improvement in both of them! Jake has firm stools for the first time in his life and his coat has improved it is more lush and he doesn't have dander anymore. Lady's coat has improved she doesn't shed as much, she doesn't have dander, and her skin allergies have totally disapeared. She also has better breathe and she doesn't smell as quickly after her bath. Both dogs don't suffer from "sick" days anymore either. I love this food."

Terrific product for my dog's allergies, but...,
March 17, 2009
by bbgirl
from Michigan
Pros: great tasting, wonderful for dogs with allergies, produces a beautiful glossy coat Cons: bad gas
"I adopted a Golden Retriever from someone who neglected to tell me the dog had allergies. A few days after having her in my home, I went out looking for a better food to see if that was the cause. I turned to this product for all of the natural ingredients, plus the fish would help with her skin and scratching. Within a few weeks I really saw a huge difference. She loved the flavor and she was no longer sneezing, rolling around, scratching all day and her coat looked glossy and wonderful.
The only downside to this product was that it gave her terrible gas which I had read on another review and did not believe. I have since had to change her food to something that her stomach agrees with - no more problems with gas.
If your dog has allergies and their stomach can tolerate this food without producing gas, this is a great product."

from Wildomar, CA
"This dog food is one that I can count on. With all the things happening with other dog foods being produced in other countries, with all the harmful products that are used. This is the one that everyone can count on. It is produced in the U.S.A. with all natual ingrediants. My dogs love it and are healthy. Need I say more."

Hopes Deflated, didn't work for my Golden Retrieve,
October 30, 2008
by SadJohn
from Union, KY
"I was so excited after reading the reviews about this product. I went to Petsmart and purchased a 30 lb bag of the Fish and Sweet Potato. My Golden Retriever woofed it down happily, but by the next day he was chewing on his paws and shaking his ears. I guess it's back to the $75 30 lb bags of Iams Kangaroo and Oat. It amazes me that I can't get a product that doesn't affect his allergies from somewhere other than the vet and for cheaper than $75."

"My Golden Retreiver has really sensitive skin and used to constantly scratch and dig at her coat all of the time. We tried Blue Buffalo and we've been sold on it ever since! Her coat is shiny and glowing and is no longer dry, were before it was dull and dry. I am convinced that this is the best dog food available!!!!!!!!"

Amaizing Food!!,
April 25, 2008
by DachNDobs
from Fort Worth, TX
"I have 3 dogs, 2 dobermans and 1 mini-dachshund. I first switched my dachshund to the Fish and Sweet Potato formula. She had always had skin allergies and had small bald spots on her hind legs and tail. She also had trouble with food pockets developing and creating dental problems and really bad breath(a common issue for dachshunds). I have always fed her premium dog food. I tried different formulas to help with her allergies & food pocketing with varying success. When I switched her to Blue Buffalo Fish & Sweet Potato I noticed an improvement in her coat within 2 weeks. After 6 weeks her bald spots had disappeared. She absolutely loves the food, she does a little food dance every time we feed her. Its the only food she has ever done that for in 9 years.
I fed my dobermans a premium large breed puppy formula from day 1 (they were 7 weeks old). The dobs did well on the food, but they always had a funky smell even after a good bath. They are 10 months old now and have been eating Blue Buffalo Fish & Sweet Potato for 2 months. After 3 weeks the smell was gone. I have read that the "smell" can be caused by the corn in dog food. One of my dobermans is blue, and they have a lot of skin issues(a condition called Color Dilution Alopecia). Her coat was always a little on the brittle side and she would get small acne spots and dandruff from time to time. now her coat is shiny and silky smooth, all the brittleness is gone and she has no dandruff or acne spots. One of the best parts of the food is I feed much less to maintain a healthy weight & there is less stool to clean up.
I cant recommend this food enough!"

Great Stuff!,
April 22, 2008
by FlyFishBum
from San Marcos, CA
"My 4 year old yellow lab had a problem with loose stools for months. We had to add lots of fiber to her diet to compensate (read canned pumpkin -- expensive). We eventually identified the cause through immunological studies -- she was allergic to the lamb meal in the dog food we had been giving her. Our veterinarian started her out on a hypoallergenic dog food, which cost a fortune. He told us that it was based on whitefish and sweet potato, with vegetables. Browsing through PetSmart we found this Blue Buffalo variation based on the same ingredients. Daisy really goes for it, with gusto!! She has no problem any more. When we told our vet that they had Blue Buffalo at PetSmart, he flipped, saying it was one of the best foods available and that he was totally surprised it is available at PetSmart. They now get if for dogs in his animal hospital."

I Recommend this to EVERYone,
December 29, 2007
by DogBird
from Orange County
"I found this brand by accident on my first day at work at a pet supply store because the cat food (Blue Buffalo Spa Select) has silly celestial illustrations on the packaging. When I looked at the ingredients, I was sold! Though my dog had been doing well on another "natural" brand, he still had dandruff and we discovered that his compulsive chewing on his front paws was due to an allergy to chicken. So, I decided to switch brands. His coat became even shinier and his dandruff went away. Plus, now he only chews on his feet when he gets into the cats' food. Just know that ingredients are VERY important. I am not a vet, but I know for a fact that CORN, WHEAT, and SOY are the top 3 food allergens for dogs AND cats. Yet, most "vet recommended" brands use those 3 ingredients and by-products in their FIRST 10 ingredients, while Blue Buffalo uses none. Ever. "Complete and balanced" can mean the equivalent of bread, a multivitamin, and a protein pill, it does NOT mean that it is of healthful origin..... READ YOUR INGREDIENTS!"

Extremely pleased,
October 6, 2007
by doglover5705
from Lexington KY
"I have 2 dachshunds and 1 was 4lbs over weight (prior food was Eukanuba LIGHT) and one was begining to become over weight (Eukanuba Puppy). I fed them smaller amounts than was was recommended ont he back so I know i was not feeding them too much. After 1 months on the Fish and sweet potato and the Blue buffalo LIGHT formula (i would feed them the LIGHT every other day). The girl that was 4lbs over weight starting loosing weight. Now after 6 months of being on the food she is at 14.5 lbs ( 1/2 lb less than where they wanted her) and she looks great. She has increased energy and does not sleep as much. The little boy is the same way. He has lost 2 lbs and looks wonderful. They both where finicky eaters but with this food as soon as we get their bowls out they go to their rugs and wait on the food. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE BLUE BUFFALO BRAND. It will do wonders for your dog and DO NOT PAY FOR OTHER HIGH END BRANDS ALWAYS READ THE INGREDIENTS. Because NATURAL to other brands still include BY PRODUCTS as Blue buffalo does not and it is cheaper. The only reason Vets recommend Science Diet and Eukanuba is because those companies pay vets to advertise for them. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!"

THE BEST PET FOOD EVER!,
August 18, 2007
by Anonymous Reviewer
from Summerville, SC
"I switched from Nutro to Blue almost 6 mos. ago. My Cockapoos wouldn't eat the Nutro anymore. They absolutely LOVED Blue! I started with the Whitefish/Sweet Potato blend and never looked back. Beware of loose stools at first if not gradually adjusting. Backyard cleanup will be alot easier with this product as well due to smaller stools. For a special treat, I simply add some warm water to their daily feeding and they think they are getting the best treat on earth! Of course this product costs more, but in my opinion, its the next best thing to a home made diet for my "babies". All natural ingredients with no preservatives or by products! Gotta love it!"

I love this product!,

from Lombard, IL
"My Great Dane/Pointer mix had the WORST food allergies, and this salesperson for Blue dog food came up to me and told me about the fish and sweet potatoe formula and I have never looked back!
If you have a dog with food allergies I would talk it over with your vet about switching to this food, but its a great food company. I love it because its an organic company with no preservatives.. Which are the nastiest things, and they have no "fillers" in their food, and my dog eats it and loves it.. I used to have him on Nutro, but he broke out in hives and was all red and itchy all over his chest and legs.."

This is a really good product!,

from Little Rock, Arkansas
"I bought this to feed to my puppies for their skin problems. Even though I feed the fish and sweet potato once a day, they loved it, and their skin and coat improved. For an added treat, I would add salmon. The other feedings they eat Blue Buffalo Large Breed Puppy food. After all the research done on dog kibble, I truly believe that any Blue Buffalo kibble is one of the best, if not the best on the market."

Leary at first, now they LOVE it!,
November 13, 2006
by ozland2004
from Topeka, KS
"My dogs were leary of the fish & sweet potato at first, now they absolutely LOVE it!
Make sure with BLUE that you gradually introduce them (per package instructions) to the food or you'll get loose stools because the food is very concentrated with nutrients and such.
My dogs thrive on BLUE. I'll never change foods again!"
