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.

Blue Buffalo
By Boxerlover on Apr 1, 2021
The store that we buy our dog's food went out of business. We panicked, wondering where we could get the food the he is used to eating. I buy treats from Chewy and looked into their dogfood. The Blue Buffalo brand has the same ingredients as the other food we were buying. We are so happy with this formula. And of course, our dog is happy too.

Unfortunately, not for my pack!
By Mimosa19 on May 3, 2021
Not one of my 6 rescue huskies were excited about the food. Not sure why. Fed only half of the large bag, so I have the remainder to donate to a local rescue shelter. Sorry, Chewy. I was glad I tried it though.

Drool inviting goodness
By RangersDad on Apr 25, 2021
We most recently switched from Purina Pro sensitive stomach meal and Ranger loves it! When he hears that kibble hit his Stainless steel bowl he struts over to the kibble leaving trails of drool. His stool seems to be smaller, which is what I was looking for (less filler)

BlueDog food
By Namtrof on Mar 21, 2021
Blue Thought I was having possibly some allergy issues of with the dogs after using the same dog food for quite a few years so I changed up with the with the blue and they weren’t right for it seemed really like it so little more expensive but I’m not seeing the issues that we were having before so maybe it was a food issue anyway I’ll be continue to purchase it

It’s a no from me
By Kira on Mar 25, 2021
I recently adopted a new dog and refused to feed her the nasty dog food her previous owners were feeding her. I got this brand because the reviews were great. My dog, however, refused to eat this. So the hunt for a good quality dog food that she’ll actually eat is still on.

Better coat!
By Karen on Apr 13, 2021
I don’t know if it is my imagination or not, but my dog does not shed near as much since I started working Blue Buffalo food into her diet. She likes to sleep in bed with us, and the hair is almost non existent now.

Neither dog a fan!
By ChloCharista on Apr 9, 2021
We have occasionally switched around to different dog foods and i was so surprised when both of my dogs snubbed their noses at this food. I won't be purchasing it again.

Great for their fur!
By BestBones on Feb 22, 2021
We have had Gabby on a raw food diet for a couple of years. When we got a puppy we decided to change her food and try something new. Wow! after a month on Blue Buffalo her fur is so shiny. I swear it has filled out and gotten softer. She is a pitbull so her hair is pretty thin. But everyone has commented on how soft and shiny it is. Both her and the puppy are healthy and love the food.

Excellent Food
By echorock on Mar 30, 2021
I rescued a older dog 4 yrs ago and he had skin issues. I switched his food to Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula and his skin issues healed within weeks of using this food.
