About BLUE Wilderness

Nature’s Evolutionary Diet

Nature’s Evolutionary Diet formulas offer complete and balanced nutrition for your dog. These high-protein recipes start with real chicken, salmon, duck, or red meat to satisfy your dog’s innate cravings.

Rocky Mountain Recipe

Inspired by the American West, Rocky Mountain Recipe formulas feature unique proteins like bison, beef, lamb, or venison alongside a healthy balance of fat and carbohydrates.

Two Powerful Pieces in Every Dry Recipe

Meat-rich BLUE Wilderness dry recipes combine nutrient-dense kibble with special LifeSource Bits. LifeSource Bits contain a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals selected by veterinarians and animal nutritionists to support immune system health and help your dog thrive at every age.

Nutrition for the Wolf Within

Like all Blue Buffalo foods, BLUE Wilderness has no poultry byproduct meals, corn, wheat, soy, or artificial flavors or preservatives.

More Meat Than Ever

BLUE Wilderness contains more meat than ever to satisfy your dog’s ancestral cravings while providing an excellent source of protein and fat.

About Blue Buffalo

The Blue Buffalo story started with a beloved Airedale named Blue, whose family wanted to feed him the best pet food possible. After searching for high-quality options, they decided to create their own food using natural ingredients, real meat first, and only the highest standards. That promise still drives them to seek out the healthiest ways to feed and nurture pets, and it lives on every time you fill your pet’s bowl with BLUE.

Questions & Answers

28 Customer Questions


Details say it contains no chicken byproducts or meals but the ingredients lists chicken meal as the second ingredient. Which one is it? It does or does not have it?

Answer by JoanOct 31, 2025
Yes, it definitely has chicken meal in it. My dogs are both allergic to chicken and chicken by-products, so I share your concerns.

Is it small kibble?

Answer by AnnieSep 28, 2025
Yes

What exactly is "natural flavor"?

Answer by ChewyAug 07, 2017
Natural flavor describes the parts of processed fruits, vegetables, spices or fermentation products that are used for flavoring.

Do the Wilderness Adult Salmon "Large Breed" and just adult have different ingredients or is it just bite size difference?

Answer by ChewyJul 15, 2020
Both the regular Adult Wilderness Salmon Recipe and the Wilderness Large Breed Salmon Recipe are quite similar, however the large breed recipe does contain more glucosamine than the regular, it also includes chondroitin. Plus, the Wilderness Large Breed Salmon Recipe is formulated to help meet the specific needs of large breed dogs.

Opened the box it shipped in and found a puncture hole in the bag. Nothing was wrong with the box, and I did not use anything sharp to open it - I just peeled the tape back. Even the paper that was sitting over the bag was not damaged so it must’ve happened before shipping. I’ve gotten this kind of food before and my dog loved it. This bag he reluctantly eat and I’m thinking it has to do with how stale it is

The description doesn’t say that AAFCO doesn’t support it. and you can’t see those words in a picture because it’s blurred out. This food is full of calories and fats and carbs and you don’t know till you see the ingredients in person because it’s blurred in the photos they provide. You won’t know that it doesn’t provide the correct nutrition until you pay 80$.

My Husky loves it.

This product does not upset her stomach because it does not have grain and other preservatives. Highly recommended.
