About BLUE Buffalo
Blue Buffalo began with unconditional love and some furry inspiration from a large breed Airedale, Blue. When Blue's family started a pet food company, their vision was clear. They wanted every pet parent to be able to feed their pet with the same care they would feed family. So they created the #1 natural pet specialty food to help furry family members live happy, healthy lives. Of course, they named it after Blue.

Happy puppy
By Holly on Aug 12, 2021
My Shiba Inu puppy was having skin and digestive problems on his previous food. I switched to Blue limited and he is a different dog. As soon as the transition to Blue the digestive problems were gone and within a couple weeks his coat and skin looked amazing. One full bag almost and he is so soft and shiny. Love this. Thank you Blue Buffalo for making a food that’s not grain free but limited to what most Shibas and dogs are actually allergic to.

More Info Would Have Been Helpful
By Janster on Jul 23, 2021
I wish the write up had mentioned that the max weight on the puppy feeding chart for 7-12 months was 60 lbs. Our Max is 10 months and 67 pounds. So I have to guesstimatre how much to give him. And I wonder if he's getting sufficient nutrition. He's also taking a little longer to develop a taste for this combo.

It's a gamble

Unfortunately Puppy did not like. Wasted money. Should have tried a smaller bag first.

Happy consumer!
By Consumer on Feb 5, 2021
Great food for my puppy who has a sensitive stomach. Literally, from the time I brought him home from the breeder at 4 months of age, he continued to vomit repeatedly. That same day, we took him to the pet ER, and the vet said that his stomach was inflamed do to his sensitive digestive track. We gave him meds to calm things down, but the vomiting continued. After doing more research, I read several studies that indicated that he maybe allergic to the food that he was being fed by the breeder. When I switched him over to this brand and formula, I immediately saw positive results and the vomited had stopped completely. Praise God! On top of that, he loves the taste of the food and is no longer Great food for my puppy who has a sensitive stomach.

Great food
By Pitmom21 on Feb 15, 2021
We feed our older sensitive pit mix the adult version of this food so we decided to give our new pittie the puppy version. The small bites are perfect for him & he is doing well on this formula, no upset stomach or nasty gas. Blue is the way to go!

allergy issues
By rusty on Feb 24, 2021
My 9 month old Vizsla seems to get bumps on a daily basis. Not knowing yet if it’s a food or environmental allergy, since he has been on this food it’s been significantly better.

Overrated and not worth the price...
By Valentin on Jan 3, 2021
Not the best or the worst. I ordered two bags... Now I'm stuck with a full bag. I don't think it is worth the extra money and your dogs will poop a lot from this food. I mean get the shovel and camp out in your backyard. Other than that, my dogs love it and it didn't seem to cause them harm.

Fantastic Puppy Food
By TomJ on Oct 23, 2020
We have started calling this magic in a bag. Our puppy had really bad diarrhea for a couple of days and then vomited small amounts of food. I started giving him white rice and chicken, which helped, but then he was constipated. He was still playful and eating, so I felt like he might have a sensitive stomach. After doing some research, I bought a bag of the Basics limited ingredient diet puppy food. It is incredible, we didn't even have to transition him. He absolutely loves the taste. He wouldn't eat his old food unless we put yogurt in it, we do add warm water to this but I've held the bowl down with just dry food in it before and he still went crazy over it.
