My dog got sick by eating it !

We switched from Beneful to Blue Buffalo , we were able to spend the extra money , so based on "Treat them as family" we went for it . Everything went spiraling down from not wanting to eat until Friday night that she threw up all the food. It is Sunday , our dog has been not wanting to eat and now she is not drinking water! I DO NOT recommend this !

Tummy issues

I transitioned of my dogs very slowly over a months time to this food. Both of them didn't seem very interested in eating it and as soon as I had them on 100% blue Buffalo, they both started having diarrhea. I then started looking at reviews and other places since the ones on Sam's didn't seem Detailed. I found that many people had the same issue with their dogs transitioning to this food.

Not Sure Sandy Would Even Eat This

I have two dogs. One is a picky eater and the other will eat everything and anything. Picky pup sniffed her bowl and then looked at me like I was Miss Hannigan feeding her mush. She wouldn’t touch it. ‘Chunk’ dug right into her own bowl and then began spitting the kibble out on my kitchen floor. Neither dog would eat this. I’m currently looking for new dog food that they clean their bowls till they shine like the top of the Chrysler building.

Not yet delivered

Have yet to receive this order. I have ordered this product multiple times in the past months but the other item ordered with it arrived promptly. I can’t find any way to track, nor have I received any correspondence from Sam’s regarding possible low stock or a projected arrival date.

My dog loves it.

My dog has a sensitive stomach but does incredibly well with Blue buffalo. I always use it as a base and add various other ingredients to ensure she gets really all the nutrients. Plus she is a gourmet and deserves diversity in her dinner. My dog is pretty healthy and the fur looks great so Blue buffalo must be pretty good.

DON'T BUY THIS

My dog is a 10 lb coton de tulear. I purchased this blue buffalo for the first time and tried to switch her over but every time she ate any of it she got sick. I finally gave up and gave the bag to my daughter and her dog couldn't tolerate it either. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Kibble is alot smaller

I use to think that this was a great deal for the pounds vs price, but I have noticed that the kibble is significantly smaller then if you buy this exact dog food anywhere else. So the food goes alot faster because you are feeding more kibble at a time to equal the correct amount. Like 1 cup portion. Bigger kibble pieces fills up a cup with less kibble vs smaller kibble pieces takes more kibble to fill up a 1 cup portion. Anyone have am explanation why the kibble is so much smaller from Sam's club vs any other retailer for the same exact dog food????

Great value

Cant find a better price in town, even when other stores have theirs on sale. Save even a couple more bucks when this is on instant savings too. I love that they've been introducing better quality dog food, I just wish they would have Blue Buffalo senior cat food, or at least I would like to see more premium cat food as well.
