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.

Our two Chihuahuas had been on Eukenuba for several years, but we were switching our 10 year old 100 pound German Shepard mix rescue dog from IAMS to Blue Buffalo (having heard IAMS had changed a great deal and noting he was enjoying his food less in recent months, sometimes even rejecting it for hours or occasionally regurgitating it). And had heard great things about Blue Buffalo, so we decided to switch the little dogs over to it too. We did a mixture for a few days before changing over entirely to the Blue Buffalo. They love it!!! We hope this may help cut down on their constant licking habits. The food disappears from the bowl much more quickly since making the change.

My dog has consistently refused any dry food offered. He has an extremely sensitive stomach and allergies with many recent bouts of pancreatitis. He eats boiled beef and rice due to the pancreatitis and my vet asked me to augment his food with dog food (he recommended Blue Buffalo). He loves it, I mix the boiled beef,rice,blue buffalo dry and buffalo wet food and he is eating like a horse. Thanks again, I can't tell you how appreciative both he and I are for your food.

My dogs like the food and treats that they get from Chewy . It's also affordable for me and it's delivered to my door . I don't have to try to get it out of my cart , into my vehicle and get it in the house .It's so heavy for me . It's the same brand I was getting at the pet store. Great quality and delivery . I recommend Chewy to everyone . Thank you Chewy .

She LOVES the bones! She likes the food, too, but seems to be getting bored with it. I will probably start getting smaller bags and different flavors each month. However, I love Chewy!!

We started our Pembroke Welsh Corgi when we got her as a puppy from an established AKC Breeder of Merit. With Blue Buffalo products, she has been healthy and without digestive problems since we got her. At 16 months, we have switched from puppy food to adult. We use Lamb & Brown Rice dry dog food and Chicken & Brown Rice, switching back and forth daily to ensure a good mix of vitamins and minerals. We also feed her Blue Buffalo canned food as an additional mixture with a bit of hot water to moisten the food. We also weigh her weekly to keep her at a proper weight with very minimal fat on her.

We've gotten probably 5 bags of Blue Buffalo from Chewy so far, and this is the first time there was really a problem. The bag showed up with about a 3 inch gash on the side of the bag near the top. It was a clean cut so my guess is that they were on a palette at some point and they got sliced with a box cutter as the palette was opened up. Food was still fine, though a little was in the box as a result of the cut. I'd still use the service again, but just wanted to let the company know about the issue.

Our family dog Bella is now 11 yrs old and pretty much only sleeps. This food really gave her a noticeable boost of energy for an old girl.

I have been feeding htis to my dobs for well over two years and they love it. I had been purchasing this locally and I am all about shopping locally but with Chewy's price and free shipping, I pay $10.00 less and don't have to drive to the store and pick it up.
