Immune System Support

Baby BLUE is formulated with added vitamins and minerals, and the dry recipes contain antioxidant-rich LifeSource Bits.

Vibrant Skin And Coat

Omega-3 and -6 fatty acids promote skin and coat health.

days 1 to 4 use 25 percent blue food. days 5 to 8 use 50 percent blue food.  days 9 to 11 use 75 percent blue food.  days 12 to 14 use 100 percent blue food.

What’s Next for Your Puppy?

They grow up so fast! BLUE comes in formulas for every life stage, so you can keep feeding deliciously wholesome nutrition as your pup moves from one life stage to the next.

About BLUE Buffalo

BLUE started with a promise to an Airedale named Blue, whose family wanted to feed him the best food possible. After searching for foods with quality ingredients, they decided to create their own, using natural ingredients, real meat first and processes that exceeded industry standards. That promise still drives them as they seek out the healthiest ways to feed, treat and nurture dogs and cats.

What is the difference between the life protection puppy formula and this baby blue formula?

Answer by TinaFeb 17, 2023
This puppy formula is for small breeds

Are these treat sourced & made in the USA??

Answer by ChewyJul 09, 2022
Blue Buffalo foods and treats are manufactured here in the USA. They source as many ingredients as possible from the U.S. Most of their grains and meats come from the USA. There are occasions when they source meat from other countries. For example, the lamb can be free-range from the USA, Australia or New Zealand. When the ingredients are not readily available in the U.S., such as vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, their suppliers work with only reputable foreign companies, and subject all ingredients to rigorous quality testing. All of their ingredients are USDA or FDA approved and inspected as applicable.

Dog likes it.

My dogs liked this verses the regular dog formula. I added a picture to show the adult non small breed kibbles are bigger. My dog ate this right away.

Unfortunely after we took Willow to the vet, she switched her dog food before we received this.
