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.

I know Blue dog food is good quality and i haven't splurged on it since they were younger but they still don't like the Life Bits and spit them out all over the floor. They like Taste of the Wild, any of their flavors over any types (3) of Blue I've tried. I won't be trying again; too many leftovers.

My large breed picky eater loves this limited ingredient food from Blue Buffalo. We tried two other brands with no success. She cleans her bowl every meal . They also added joint support minerals that are essential for large breed dogs.

My.puppy started out on a different food. The only flavors we could find in the other brand was lamb or chicken. He hated both flavors and it was hard to get him to eat the food. We discovered this beef flavor just as he was coming off his puppy food. He now dives into his food and eats it all up with no problems. I love that the first 2 ingredients are beef then chicken. All 3 of my boys love blue buffalo beef chunks and getting their food from chewy is not only hassle free but I love that it is delivered to my door.

My 8 month old Australian Shepherd was quickly tiring of her puppy food. This is her new adult food. She seems to like it better than her Hills science Diet Puppy food. It does digest well, no problems with making the switch.

I have a aussie mix with lots of allergies and sensitive skin. Anything other than Blue Buffalo makes him itchy, red, and peel-y. I mix a big bag of Blue Buffalo grain-free with Natural Balance low-calorie salmon "Fat Dogs" food (because BB alone has so many calories), and it works perfectly for Chuck!

Love the grain Free beef recipe for two of my Afghans. One is allergic to chicken, so this is a good fit for him. Product was a good price and delivered quickly!

Or so it seems. I don't get why it runs more expensive than the other "freedom" large breeds.
