If you want the best for your dog - this is IT!!! June 25, 2010

We've been feeding our dogs BLUE products since they were puppies. We have two Boston Terriers; Boston's have notoriously sensitive digestive systems and are very prone to gas. A diet without corn, wheat and soy (as well as no by-products) is best for them. (FYI- chicken by-products include head, feet, beaks, lungs, spleen, kidneys, brain, liver, stomach, bones, blood, intestines, and any other part of the carcass not fit for human consumption) Our dogs LOVE it and I feel good feeding it to them. I know that they are getting human grade foods; quality chicken, anti-oxidant rich fruits (blueberries,cranberries), healthy veggies (tomato,whole potatoes,sweet potatoes,peas,whole carrots) as well as high quality grains (brown rice,barley,oatmeal,rye,flaxseed). BLUE also has glucosamine for healthy joints; sunflower & fish oils for a natural source of Omega 3 & 6 fatty acids. Essential amino acids (L-carnitine and L-lysine) for fat metabolism, calcium absorption and the building of muscle. The BLUE-exclusive Life Source Bits have vitamins, minerals and holistic supplements like rosemary, garlic, kelp, dried parsley, alfalfa meal, yucca, turmeric and chicory root. BLUE also adds healthy digestion-promoting cultures - lactobacillus, acidophilus, Bacilus subtilis and enterococcus faecium. Dogs love it and it's good for them - what else could you ask for? (It's also available in an economical 30 lb. bag, too.)

Every since we've been feeding our dog this dog food, she can't wait to eat. It's good for her and not filled with a bunch of oatmeal and other junk. It's a little pricey but your dog will love you for feeding it to them.
human quality ingredients, unique manufacturing process-- my goldens enjoy it January 24, 2009

My two goldens approve of this product. Blue Buffalo uses top of the line ingredients, human food grade-- there's a chicken version and a fish version. No yucky meat "by-products", meat and meat meals are the top ingredients, no indigestible corn or wheat, a wide variety of wholesome and varied vegetable ingredients and several probiotics to promote healthy digestion and absorption of nutrients. On top of that, this is a very palatable food.
Blue Buffalo also uses a unique process to manufacture "lifebits" which are added to the basic "kibble" food. These smaller, darker pieces are cold formed in order to better maintain nutrients. I don't believe any other company incorporates this kind of element into dog food.
I respect what they are doing, and I've changed to Blue Buffalo food for my cat, too.

According to my extremely finicky Cocker, Blue Buffalo Dog Food is the best. I have been trying to switch her over from prescription food, for her allergies, for a long time; I couldn't find anything to agree with her palate. Blue is just the ticket, from the very beginning. It doesn't contain anything that you can't pronounce, or any other fillers. Try it, your dog will love it!
