Questions & Answers

9 Customer Questions


What are the “vitamin packs” mentioned in another answer that’s added to your dog food? What vitamins are in these packs? Can I get a full list of what is in your dog L.I.T. food and where are they sourced? I rather pay more than buy offshore. Thank you for your time.


Are any of these ingredients sourced from China?

Answer by ChewyApr 26, 2024
Blue Buffalo sources 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 they use 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. None of their meats or grains are sourced from China. All of their ingredients are USDA or FDA approved and inspected as applicable.

I needed a dry dog food that would help my 12 and a half year old Great Dane through her bowel issues. Too many mushy BMs. I read that less ingredients in dry dog food might help not only with stomach issues, but also skin allergies. Roxie started having more solid stools after about 4 weeks on this food. Unfortunately, the price of this food is too much for our budget, so we need to try something else for my big girl. I do not understand why pet food prices have skyrocketed since Covid times. I used to buy a 35 pound bag of dry dog food for under $20. Now, I might get a 4 pound bag for that price. Just terrible.

When transitioning my puppy to this food it was okay cuz it was mixed into her other food slowly but as we got closer and closer to this being her only food she ate less and less. In fact if she was anywhere in the vicinity when I opened the bag she would turn her head to the side to avoid the scent. And now I am stuck with a half a bag of it trying to mix different things into it including her new food and she still won't eat it that's how powerful the smell is. It's kind of unbearable. Dog digests it well but despises it. Bummer.

My dog began to have a lot of itching. I thought I would try to get her off chicken products to see if she might have skin improvement. She did. This kibble is very fresh and one of the few that had no chicken at all. I am pleased that it is available and that sheikh it so well!

Luna really likes this formula. We tried it to rule out food allergies. She eats it right up, but unfortunately she's still itching. For the price, we will probably switch back to lamb and rice.

We are switching from a prescription food to this for our dogs. The prescription food was for one of our pooches, but it was just easier to feed all of them the same food. But this food has similar ingredients as the prescription food and so far, our dogs have made the switch to this food without issue. And this food is about half as expensive as the prescription food.

My 20lb rescue dog suddenly started gaining weight even though I kept cutting back on her food. She had been eating a different brand of lamb and rice that unbeknownst to me had changed their formula to include a lot of corn. On my vet's recommendation I tried Blue Buffalo's Lamb and Rice and she loves it SO much that I actually had to get her a slow-feeder bowl because she was eating it up so fast! She's feeling much better, has more energy and definitely enjoys her meal times. Thank you,

Stopped allergy issues

Walter was having alot of intestinal issues. The vet suggested we change to a "no chicken" dog food. Within a week his symptoms have resolved.
