Questions & Answers

23 Customer Questions


What are the little dark pieces in your dry foods? My dogs won’t eat those.

Answer by ChewyApr 01, 2018
The dark pieces in the kibble are called Lifesource Bits. All BLUE dry food formulas feature a precise blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants selected by holistic veterinarians and animal nutritionists to help promote immune system health, fulfill life stage requirements and support a healthy oxidative balance.

I love all of the good ingredients you put into your dog food. However, can you explain how this particular dog food can claim it is “Grain-Free” when it has Alfalfa Nutrient and Barley Grass listed in your ingredience?

Answer by ChewyOct 01, 2019
This food is considered grain free. Alfalfa is a perennial flowering plant in the legume family. Barley is an annual grass. Barley grass is the leaf of the barley plant, as opposed to the grain.

Does this product contain a fishy odor?

Answer by ChewyAug 20, 2018
This formula may have a fish like scent, as it contains deboned salmon as the first ingredient.

Why is there yeast in the food if it is grain free?

Answer by ChewySep 03, 2019
Yeast is not a grain. It is added because it provides a grain-free source of protein and enhances palatability.

My dogs hated it. Had diarrhea and vomiting

My dogs only ate it maybe 3 times, then refused to eat anymore of it. E en after carefully mixing over 7 days, it gave them both diarrhea and vomiting for days!

My dog loves this food

My pup has food allergies but can eat salmon and sweet potatoes. She’s eaten Blue Buffalo for several years and always gulps it down. I must admit we put a spoonful

Food that helps with skin allergies

Finally something that helps his skin not be itchy or pink. Little pricey, but so was the vet bills. He likes it, but he isn't a picky eater.
