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.

Is this the small bites?
Answer by ChewyNov 30, 2017

Is blue buffalo life protection formula adult fish & brown rice recipe dry dog food grain free?
Answer by ChewyDec 27, 2018
This food is not grain free.

Is the fish in the Life Protection Formula Fish and Brown Rice farm raised?
Answer by ChewySep 03, 2018
Blue Buffalo utilizes both farms raised and ocean-caught fish in their products. They will use framed raised fish during times when the wild fish population has to regrow.

My 1 year old pup has always eaten Blue chicken and brown rice. I wanted to try the fish or lamb so is that bad to change?
Answer by ChewyAug 12, 2018
When changing formulas always transition your pet to avoid gastrointestinal upset. Start by mixing 25% of BLUE with your dog’s old food, and gradually increase the proportion of BLUE over the next 14 days.

Blue Buffalo

I've been feeding my dog, Joy, with Blue Buffalo fish and brown rice for almost 13 years. It has kept her healthy and peppy. Whatever you choose make sure it's the top of the line.

My dog loves it.

My dig loves this formula of salmon and brown rice. He ate it right down after I opened the bag to pour in his empty container and then scooped it into his bowl.

Good Kibble, Dog enjoys

My dog at some point last year decided she wouldn't eat her chicken kibble anymore. After many attempts it became clear that she just really didnt enjoy the taste and was willing to go hungry instead of eating it She has been eating this fish kibble for 4 months now and really seems to enjoy it. Her energy is up

Great dog food!

It got too expensive so I switched dog food to save some money. My dog didn't last long on the cheaper dog food. I had to switch her back to blue buffalo. No more itching her skin all day and all night long.

Oops

This brand was not my usual order. The dogs spit out the tiny dark bits. So fussy. If you remember what I ordered before I would appreciate knowing.

Blue Buffalo

I really don’t know what to say. This is the pickiest dog I have ever had when it comes to food. He bulks at everything and I have tried many different dog foods and added people food also just to get him to eat. Unfortunately, he has bulked at this food also. I did add a little oil on his food which was ok a couple of times. Once he actually ate it dry. He wouldn’t touch it yesterday so today I added a little wet food which he usually doesn’t like. He went over to his bowl, sniffed and walked away. I called him back, forced a little into his mouth and then he ate the entire bowl with the two mixed together. This really doesn’t mean anything because he’s done that before. I believe this is a good dog food and we will keep feeding it to him. He is approximately nine years old, a rescue, we have had him a little over seven years and as wonderful as he is he is a pain to feed.

Just ok

My dog is eating this, but not with enthusiasm. He picks out the round dark brown pieces and leaves them on the floor. He eats the rest of the kibble, but will not eat those pieces.

Loves his food!

I've been feeding my lab mix Blue Buffalo life protection formula - chicken and rice formula for several years. He's the kind of dog who always seems starving and wolfs down his food. Recently we switched the flavor thinking a little variety could be a good thing. We switched to the same brand, but he fish & brown rice. He literally jumped up and down the first time we gave it to him. Probably should have done it sooner! Anyway, he loves it, and he seems to be very healthy eating this brand. 8 years old, shiny coat, energetic, no problems. I recommend!
