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.

Not a fan.
By Charlie on Nov 1, 2020
My 4 year old golden doodle avoids eating this until really hungry unlike other flavors. I thought maybe the fish would be a new taste and good for his skin and coat, but he gives me a dirty look every time I put it in his bowl.

Great Food
By Becareful on Oct 9, 2020
Some of my dogs are allergic to chicken. I switched them to Blue Buffalo. I picked the one with grains because I have heard about heart disease if there is no grain. My dogs (4) love this food. I didn’t have any problems with the switch over in any of them. I would recommend.

My dog does not like
By NAGT on Sep 22, 2020
I have been feeding my dog (Pit Bull) Blue since he was able to eat solid dog food. I occasionally mix it with a can of Blue wet food for some extra heartiness for him. I thought I'd give him a different flavor and add this type and he doesn't agree. He's fixed on the Chicken and Brown rice bag.

Our dog loves this flavor of Buffalo Blue. She usually loses interest after a week and typically nibbles here and there. She devours her breakfast and dinner now!

best food for silky smooth fur
By Bella on Sep 5, 2020
I have two dogs on this food, their fur was course and not nice to the touch. Since I have been using this product their fur is extremely soft and nice to the touch. I believe it was because of this dry dog food and it has been proven over time. I recommend it to anyone for soft silky fur on their best friend.

Not happy with my dogs food
By Adriana on Oct 4, 2020
My dog seems to be picking at the food which is strange because he usually devours it so I’m not sure if it was stale or something.

All my dogs love blue buffalo. Their coat is shinier and I don’t notice the scratching anymore. When you open the bag and the smell wares out, you know you’re getting a quality brand of dog food. And no it don’t smell up the area but smells of quality.

Dog food blue
By Jimg on Aug 17, 2020
This food made our dog sick I think because we changed foods so I gave it away and did not use . Also there is a article out about the ingredients in the food making dogs ill. Would not buy again

Dogs love it!
By Juana on May 12, 2020
I started to mix it to introduce new food and they would eat around the old stuff and only eat the buffalo. Unfortunately takes a long time to get due to covid19. I Recommend ordering what u need at least a week earlier than u need it. But overall happy I don’t have to go to the store anymore.
