Blue BuffaloLife Protection Formula Large Breed Adult Dry Dog Food, Promotes Joint Health and Lean Muscles, Made with Natural Ingredients, Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe, 30-lb Bag

The choice of what food to feed our dogs is never an easy one; differences in breed and size and digestion make what's good for one dog not necessarily good for ours. What I can objectively say is that Blue Buffalo dog food is filled with high quality ingredients and they make many formulas (ex. puppy, large breed, older dog) to match the needs of most dogs. It is certainly pricier than the economy dog foods, but then again, it is reasonable to expect to pay a bit more for higher quality feed.From our experience with Shelby, our black lab, Blue Buffalo is the food she likes the best and the food that her body responds to the best. When she was a very young puppy she was fed Health Extensions brand, which was decent, but did not make a large breed formula. We then switched her to Blue Buffalo Puppy which she loved and which aided in her turn from a sickly shelter rescue to the healthy, shiny, energetic dog we have today. She eats this food voraciously (which is more than I can say for the Kirkland brand we tried for a few months), has plenty of energy, a super shiny coat (Kirkland brand left her with dry, itchy skin), regular digestive activity (yup, I went there), and she maintains a healthy weight. The price here on Amazon is significantly cheaper than the pet store and ordering online allows us to receive a fresh bag at our doorstep on demand.Blue Buffalo is the food we have found works the best due to the fact that it has high quality ingredients, it is made in the USA, there are many formulations to fit individual dogs needs and because the results thus far in our dogs health speaks volumes.I posted a before and after picture of our black lab. She is enjoying some Blue Buffalo Puppy in the before pic and is the big, healthy 1-year-old gal in the after pic. Good luck.UPDATE 10/2018: Our dog just turned three years old and has been eating Blue Buffalo food for just about her entire life; we switched from the Puppy to the Adult after about a year. This food continues to agree with our dog and she is healthy and wonderful. We have never had an issue with the freshness of this food while ordering online either.

Packaged well. I’ve been ordering this food for over a year on subscribe and save and it’s consistently good quality food that my dog loves. Stays fresh in the bag. My dogs coat is beautiful and he is a massive 100 pound dog that hasn’t had any joint problems. I relate that to the amazing quality of this food. My dog is in great health.

This is our favorite dog food by far. Our dog loves it and we feel good about the ingredients. The pricing has gone up a little on Amazon compared to our local grocery store but for now it's convenient.

Our dog loves the taste of Blue Buffalo, we love that it is made with high-quality ingredients, and we love that we can get it delivered to our home on subscription and save a little money. This is such an excellent service and saves me time!

i have a 16 month old great dane who tends to be very picky when it comes to food. i had her on the chicken and rice large breed puppy from blue buffalo in the past and even though she liked it at first it didn't take long for her to get tired of it and stop eating it. this was a shame as her coat was so soft and shiny while eating this brand. i changed her over to Purina one large breed puppy and she quickly developed a skin allergies to it, her coat also got dull and she began shedding much more then normal. i knew i was going back to the blue buffalo and found this large breed lamb. i was a little worried she might not like it but she LOVES it! i am a little disappointed to see that they do not make the large breed puppy in any other flavors however she is almost 2 so i feel she is old enough now to transition to adult dog food. I will always feed her this brand as it had her at her most beautiful and healthy!

This food works well for my bully breed with a sensitive tummy.

My dog loves this but she isn’t picky. I got the big bag since it was on sale and I’m feeding my daughter’s dog too. After giving them this food both dogs had very bad diarrhea. Trip to the vet and they said this food is way too rich for most dogs. So that sale cost me a $200 vet bill

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Blue has a great reputation, my old dog loves this
