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.

This food is Great
By Katelyn on Jan 11, 2022
This food is 100% worth it. My dog was throwing up her other food so we were looking for one that would be better for her. She has been on this food for about 2 months now and has not thrown up once. She has significantly more energy and over all seems happier. She seems to genuinely love this food and is excited to eat everyday. I am very impressed.

Dog that loves to eat... won't eat this
By Dennor on Dec 29, 2021
Our little guy loves to eat. Goes into a major happy dance when it's time for his meal. Never seen him not want to eat his food, until we served him this. Honestly, even to us, it smelled terrible. He would stare at it, then stare at us like "how dare you ruin my favorite time of day with this stuff". Eventually, he would get hungry enough to eat it, but we, fortunately, bought the small bag to test first and won't be buying it again.

Gaining Weight
By KATRINA on Jan 12, 2022
105 lbs Rottweiler. Developed hip problem with no guarantee of mending. Resorting to joint medicines. Consequently, lack of exercise. Hoping this food will help her to lose weight or at least maintain it.

My dog loves this
By Blue on Dec 22, 2021
I had to order this because the dry food that I Normally get to supplement my pups food was not available. Turns out she likes this much more and we'll be sticking with it now.

LG BREED VS SM BREED
By Magz on Dec 4, 2021
Now I understand why I could not find this in a small breed size. Apparently they have condensed small breed and large breed together to make this product. Only slightly larger than the small breed size I usually buy..

LOST WEIGHT AND MORE ACTIVE
By BLACKDOG on Dec 17, 2021
I switched from adult formula of this brand to life protection based on our vets advice. Our 10 yr old Lab has visibly lost weight and seems to be more active , this is after only 1 40lb bag.

Great food for a picky eater!
By Kimo on Dec 24, 2021
I have been looking for a weight management food for a while, and finally decided to try this one. It cost a little more, but my picky eater loves it! It’s totally worth it!

We love Chewy & Blue Buffalo
By SheltyDave on Nov 16, 2021
We like ordering our blue buffalo from chewy. Chewy always ships the right products quickly, and their prices are very competitive. We like this blue buffalo for our mature dog who tends to get a little heavy. She likes it too!

We feel much better now
By Typh on Sep 11, 2021
My dog Albion had gained a lot of weight while my grandad was around, he'd feed him everything, we switched to this after he moved out and followed our instructions and my boy has safely dropped a good bit of that weight. I did try another more inexpensive food for a short period of time but it upset our belly. He loves this food and even shares a piece with the cats here and there. I also love it because he's down to a more healthy weight, we still have a bit to go, but I love this product.

Great food for older dogs
By Care on Dec 15, 2021
My weimaraner is 13 and he's quite picky about his food. He eats this food with no problem! He devours it. Glad we gave it a try.
