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.

Puppy Loves It
By LoveBunnies on Feb 25, 2020 Top 1000 Contributor
Our Corgi pup loves this food. And it seems to be a great choice for him. He poops less but they are nice and firm, which IMO is because he digests this food well. His coat is also shinier and softer since he's been on it (which is unusual for Corgis since they don't have soft fur). He will be staying on this food until he reaches adult age.

My puppy won't eat
By Nala on Feb 22, 2020
With this food I was worried because she wouldn't eat more than 1/2 cup a day. After I changed to other product, now she eats one cup a day. It must be the taste and puppy knows.
