Questions & Answers

19 Customer Questions


Dose all the ingredients come from the USA and is it made in the USA?

Answer by ChewyJan 08, 2021
All Blue Buffalo products are manufactured in the United States. Many of their ingredients, such as most grains and meats, like chicken, beef and turkey come from the United States. Where possible Blue's suppliers are instructed to source their ingredients from the United States. Where the ingredients are not readily available in the United States, such as many vitamins and minerals, their suppliers will only work with reliable foreign companies, and subject all ingredients to rigorous quality testing. None of the ingredients are sourced from China.

Is pumpkin in that's food

Answer by ChewyFeb 10, 2018
Pumpkin is an ingredient in this formula.

What's the shelf life of blue basics sr?

Answer by ChewySep 30, 2020
An unopened bag of food will last until the expiration date stamped on the bag. Ideally, dry food and treats should be consumed within 6-8 weeks of opening the bag. Exposure to air, light, hot temperatures and humidity speeds up the rate at which foods degrade. To limit these effects, keep dry foods in their original packaging and store in a cool, dry location.

If my dog is already on the blue limited ingredient adult formula, is it necessary to gradually mix foods to change to this senior formula?

Answer by ChewyAug 01, 2018
Blue suggests gradually transitioning when it comes to switching "life stages". You can gauge how long this needs to take depending on how your dog is reacting to the change.

Our lil ol' fellas love their food. They take turns being my alarm clock in the morning to advise me it is time to be fed. They are older and Max does seem to have more digestive issues, and this food gives them good nutrition and fewer "Filler" ingredients. we have used BB for nearly 20yr for these two boys and our ol boy prior to their arrival.

My two boys, aged 11.5yrs and 5.5yrs, died within 6 days of each other while on this food; nothing else was different than my other two dog; they all lived in the same place, drank the same water, but ate different foods. I will never recommend this food to any dog owner

Our basset has allergies, skin issues, tummy issues. Allergic to Chicken and has issues with grains, very particular about her food. She has loved this food, rather than standing there staring at it,she digs right in. Her stomach is not as upset all the time, and her coat has improved. We are very happy with this food.

Always top quality

This food works great for my 13 year old Bichon. As he's gotten older, his stomach is more sensitive, and this food allows him to eat healthy and stay fit.

Once he got used to it, he loves it and he’s lost some weight, too :) The other sensitive blue buffalo we were buying him, we felt he gained on it; that’s why I searched for an alternative. I felt like he gained weight on it and it was turkey based also. Love it (!)definitely recommend it for little senior dogs!!
