### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pup loves it
*by M***S on August 20, 2023*

So my new pup has been through 3 different brands of dry food since I took her in. The first is an unknown brand that the original owners fed her, which they gave me a small bag of when I adopted her to mix in with her new foods. It looked and smelled like cheap bulk dog food. The second brand was Blue Buffalo (recommended by a friend), and once I was tapered almost completely off of the first brand, she seemed less and less interested in the Blue Buffalo dry food. She would eat it throughout the day when she was hungry, but she didn’t have any excitement for it, and she usually wouldn’t dig in immediately when I put the bowl down, opting to wait and see if I was going to add anything to it I guess. I bought 2 different flavors, so I figured she’d maybe like one a bit more, but she was equally disinterested with both flavors. After reading a bunch of reviews online, the third brand I tried was this - the Hill’s puppy science diet. She became noticeably happier when I started tapering her off the Blue Buffalo, and now that’s all gone, and only the Hill’s remains. She seems happy as she can be for a dry food, but she really loves lunch time when I add some wet dog food into the mix. The most noticeable physical difference was the size of each pellet. Blue buffalo had bigger pieces, while the Hill’s pellets are very small. I’m not sure if the size of the pellets is contributing to her interest, but I’m not discounting it. A very welcome change was the smell of her breath. When she was on Blue Buffalo, there was a tinge of fishiness to her breath. It wasn’t the most pleasant for me. Now, her breath smells fairly good. More like what I feel a pup’s breath should smell like. The only issue I’ve had since my purchase is one day she vomited up her breakfast. It was the only time she’s ever vomited since I’ve had her. It seemed to be mostly water, and it didn’t look like the pellets were expanding from the moisture while in her stomach, so maybe she just drank/ate a little too much that morning. I’m definitely going to purchase more in the future, and would recommend it.
