"To Blue Buffalo, their dogs and cats are family members, so only the very best food is good enough for them."  With this being the core idea of the Blue Buffalo Company, they set out to create a healthy dog food and cat food that would allow them to feed their furry friends with the same concern for nutrition and quality that we have for all of their family members.

When they looked closely at the well-known pet food brands, they were surprised to learn that most contained ingredients like animal by-products, cheap fillers, artificial preservatives, flavors and colors.

Blue Buffalo also learned that even the highest-priced pet foods cook their added vitamins and minerals right along with the rest of their ingredients which can degrade the potency of important antioxidants like Vitamin C up to 75%.

This learning inspired them to design BLUE as a two-part product, one which combined a tasty nutrition kibble with our exclusive LifeSource® Bits - active nutrients and antioxidants that are "cold-formed" to preserve their potency.  It's this unique combination that provides the kind of wholesome nutrition your pet family member deserves.
