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.

I have a brother and sister pair of 5 month old German Shepherd puppies that have been eating this since I bought them at 7 weeks old. They love it, they look beautiful and their vet says they are in perfect health. Yes, it is a bit more expensive but worth every penny. They were born on Christmas Day 2017 and are named “Knikolas” and “Angel”. (St. Nick and a Christmas Angel). I love them.

Next to scraps of any kind of meat my boy gives me, this is my favorite. I think it's really good for me too because I am big and strong now. I'm a 1yr old Rottweiler so pretty soon I'll move to an adult food. This has been my only food except once when I got my buddy's small breed adult BB. It was good too. Woof!

I have a pit bull mix named Helen & a Husky/Hound mix named Harper. I don't buy them anything but Blue Wilderness dog/puppy food. I LOVE this brand almost as much as they love this brand. I love that it's grain free. I love that there's so many different options when it comes to what size bag of food you want. I love how many flavor options of food they offer. Chewy has the best prices. The options that Chewy has available for different treats, flavors of dog/cat food, sizes for bags of dog/cat food toys, beds, filtered water products, the ability to filter out exactly what you're looking for, 24/7 customer service, FAST 1-2 day shipping, auto ship options, everything is AMAZING.

This particular brand/flavor doesn't seem to go over well with either of my dogs. They both usually love Blue (Freedom / Basic), but I thought I'd try the one with the 'wolf' on it. I'll go back to the others. (This is just preference of my 2 dogs)

We feed this to our Boxer puppy and he does so well on it! We have tried other foods and they make him sick. He has a ton of energy and doesn’t have issues with his stomach with this food. Highly recommend!

My husky puppy would eat absolutely anything until I got this dog food. He eats trash and paper but not this food. I searched high and low for something really good for him and found this thinking he would love it. But I was wrong. He barely eats his food now whereas before he scarfed down anything put in his bowl, so I will have to start my search again.

I started my lab puppy on BB Wilderness Puppy Chicken grain-free, which has small kibble. Since she has been eating so fast I decided to switch to the BB large breed. It has larger kibble and seems to slow her eating down a bit. I slowly blended the two foods together to give her system used to the large breed food. It does have different ingredients. She's 8 months old.

Our 3 month old golden loves this food, but I had to take 1 star off for the bag not being resealable!!! Such a little thing but, for such a big bag I hoped it would be.

Our vet recommended we switch to a large breed food for our black lab/pitt mix puppy. After research, several reviewers suggested that going grain-free help their dogs' bowels, so we decided to try it too after noticing Jett's poos we're becoming quite smelly and very soft with the food the shelter was giving him. Within only a few days of transitioning, Jett's number twos had us suddenly saying "oh, yeah, that's definitely what his poop should have looked like this entire time..." We wish we had the option of ordering a larger bag, and that the pieces of kibble were a little bigger. But as far as what it has done for our 12 week pup in only 14 days, I'm a believer! Plus - he loves it. He works Our vet recommended we switch to a large breed food for our black lab/pitt mix puppy.
