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.

27 Customer Questions
Can you cancel autoship anytime?
Answer by markcm • Oct 26, 2025
Yes, I have found chewy's autoship program to be very customer user friendly, much better than how Amazon manages their autoship program.
You will get a pre shipment notification, you can change the date forward or backward, and you can cancel providing the product hasn't shipped, which is reasonable.
Where is this product made? Does any source material come from China?
Answer by • Jul 31, 2018
All Blue Buffalo products are manufactured in the United States. Many of their ingredients, such as most grains and meats, like chicken, beef and turkey come from the United States. Lamb and venison can be free range from the United States or New Zealand. Rabbit is sourced from Europe, and trout can come from the United States or Canada. Where possible Blue's suppliers are instructed to source their ingredients from the United States. Where the ingredients are not readily available in the United States, such as many vitamins and minerals, their suppliers will only work with reliable foreign companies, and subject all ingredients to rigorous quality testing. None of the ingredients are sourced from China.
What is the sodium content?
Answer by • May 06, 2020
This formula has a sodium content of approximately 0.22% on an as fed basis.
