Top positive review

Watch the dented cans

October 2, 2018

I feed my service dog the whole range of blue buffalo products. She is healthy and in great shape. Our vet always remarks about this. If I have a complaint it isn’t about the product, but about the frequency with which we get our case of food with so many dented cans. Cans we can’t feed her because the contents are damaged by the denting and the food smells bad when you open it. My dog serves me, she alerts, and she won’t eat it if we don’t catch the problem immediately. This last case was so damaged and oddly many of the cans facing away from the outside edges were the most dented. I basically paid for 12 cans but got only five I could use. Better packaging? Quality control to catch this? Help me out here. This wasn’t the first time, but the worst.

Fat-filled mess x two cases

November 25, 2018

I'm a fan of this dog food and have bought at two local grocery stores in single cans, multiple times. The price on Amazon was about .40 cents cheaper a can. So, I ordered a case and each can in had a thick rim of fat around the top and chunks of fat all through the food. The store bought food of the same flavor (beef dinner w/ vegetables) is solid brownish in color with an occasional carrot or other veggie the only different color in the food. Amazon readily exchanged the first case for a new one (thank you), however, when the second case arrived with the same fatty issues and I tried to return it, it now comes up as "Item is not eligible for return." We will not risk feeding this version of the food to our dogs nor are we comfortable donating it to a shelter in this condition. And, we are out $24. Not cool...

DO NOT FEED before examining this food!

Flavor Name: Beef DinnerSize: 12.5 ozVerified Purchase

I ordered this food for my dog as I heard BLUE was a good brand and after just one can found my dog become sick. Vomiting and fatigued just after one serving. I smelled the can of food and it seemed to smell bad so I opened another and in the 2nd Can there was MOLD inside. The expectation is 2020 but something is wrong with this batch.

Terrible

February 11, 2018

Flavor Name: Beef DinnerSize: 12.5 ozVerified Purchase

I switched to this from Cesar wet food because I found out Cesar wet food had animal byproducts and I thought Blue was a better choice based on ads. However, my dog did not react well to this. He threw up multiple times during the week I fed him this stuff, he had severe diarrhea, and his lower abdomen was bloated. Likewise, he leaves this stuff in his bowl most of the time (never happened with Cesar's). I will be switching back seeing as there is something really wrong with this food.

Pulltap breaks off with every third can I try to open!

March 5, 2018

Flavor Name: Beef DinnerSize: 12.5 ozVerified Purchase

I would give the food 4 stars, because I know it's good for my dog and she will eat it but it not crazy about it. The reason I'm giving this 2 stars is one out of three cans I try to open...the pull tab breaks off. Then I have to use a can opener to get it open, which sometimes leave little metal shards on the top of the food. That means I have to take off the top portion on the food so that my dog doesn't get shards of metal in her meal. I really wish they'd get this problem solved.

Clover feels better…

Flavor Name: Beef DinnerSize: 12.5 ozVerified Purchase

My wonderful service dog, Clover, is getting older and is ill. She has little appetite. I purchased the canned food hoping she would eat. She loves it! I add some to warm water and use it as "gravy" on her Blue Buffalo dry food. She cleaned her bowl!! Thanks Amazon and Blue Buffalo‼️

Great Product, Poor Packaging

November 26, 2017

Flavor Name: Turkey Meatloaf DinnerSize: 12.5 ozVerified Purchase

Our dog loves blue buffalo and the product they produce whether it be dry kibble or wet food is top notch. The 4 stars vs 5 is for the packaging and condition that our canned food is in when it arrives. We order the canned food probably once every month and a half and there are always a few cans of the 12 pack that arrive damaged.

Same label different ingredients

January 5, 2019

Flavor Name: Fish & Sweet Potato DinnerSize: 12.5 ozVerified Purchase

My dog has been happy and healthy eating this food for many years, so I was surprised when he was refusing to eat the new cans that I ordered from Amazon. I went to get one from my local pet store and found out that even though the label reads the same, "Blue Buffalo Homestyle Recipe Natural Adult Wet Dog Food Fish & Sweet Potato Dinner", the ingredients are different. And I also noticed that the one from Amazon does not even smell like fish. It has also chicken and turkey. I just want people to be aware of it, I am really disappointed because I thought that this company was serious end wouldn't do something like this.
