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.

Worth every penny
By Pewski on Sep 19, 2021
I tried other pet supplements with little success. I've discovered using a high quality dog food like Blue along with a 1200mg fish oil pill and a scoop of canned meat is the winning combo. Just looking at the Blues dog food you can tell it's well made. No weird odor. The ingredients are spot on. My dogs like it with or without the extras. A little more in price but you get what you pay for!

So far so good
By Picnic on Aug 26, 2021
This is 4th food to try after a number of OS-normally eats Royal Canin Cavalier KCS, so consequently this is mixed with 3 other foods though this is the primary. She is an easy eater but the size is right for her at about 18#, so far she is doing well on it-at 7 she has no health issues. I researched and believe this to be a quality food with what she needs so will buy again.

not tolerated well
By Cooper on Sep 15, 2021
I tried this brand because of all the natural ingredients listed on bag. Although my dog enjoyed eating it, he had some major digestive issues with it. I'll go back to my previous brand and hope he's back to normal soon.

This food saved my dogs
By July2021 on Aug 10, 2021
Both my Shih Tsu and my Manchester Terrier had stopped eating, nothing I bought would get them to eat. I read the reviews for this food and figured what have I got to lose. My Manchester barely let me get it in his bowl before he started eating and the picky eater Shih Tsu ate every bite without coaxing every bite down. I’m so pleased, they are both putting weight back on. Their coats are silky and shiny again. And now I don’t worry about losing them. I highly recommend this food. It was a lifesaver for my dogs.

warm and fuzzy
By GunNut37086 on Aug 12, 2021
Feeding premium food to my dogs gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling. I love them and want them to have the best I can afford. Unfortunately, they don't love it as much as I do. They've eaten this brand for years, but lately I have to put a few tablespoons of chicken stock (organic, sodium-free) or they won't eat it.

It’s good food for your babies
By Isonthaveone on Sep 8, 2021
Well for sure by babies were ever so happy to get this new food. They all like it very much. They had a little problem with their bowls for a day or two but after that everything settled back down.

Top of the line!
By Mantis on Sep 3, 2021
All three of my dogs have been on this for the past several years and they are in great shape compared to when they were eating other food. Their coats, energy levels and overall health are great.

Not a winner
By Food on Aug 13, 2021
I thought i finally found a food all four of my pups would love. At first they did but then two of them started sorting out the life bits and wouldn’t eat them. Another two days later o ne pug flat out walked away from it. The other two are food hogs and eat anything. Will have to switch back to hills or nitro. This is really a no go for us. Never had problems with blue buffalo before, quality may not be there anymore

To Say My Dogs Loved It Is An Understatement
By Kait on Jul 29, 2021
I ordered from Chewy for the first time and this bag of dog food was delivered just 2-3 days later. My dogs helped me open the box lol! It’s like they already knew what it was. I’ve slowly been transitioning them to this dog food and they go absolutely crazy for it! I highly recommend for any type or dog you have.

Blue Buffalo Dog Food
By Sadie on Aug 21, 2021
Great to get dog food delivered to your gate. Both dogs inhale their food, so I am not sure if they know I changed their food yet. I do like the small pieces of food, I think that is better for them.
