BLUE provides the unique combination of superior nutrition and ultimate protection.
We love our dogs and cats like family so we want to feed them like family. That's why BLUE™ is made with only the finest natural ingredients plus the active nutrients and antioxidants of our exclusive, cold-formed LifeSource® Bits.
You’ll be surprised to know that many of the well-known pet food brands contain ingredients that aren’t of the highest quality—things like chicken or poultry by-product meals†, corn, wheat, soy and artificial preservatives. When you compare dog food or cat food, we think you’ll find BLUE is a better, healthier choice—one that you can feel good about giving your beloved four-legged family member.
Fish & Sweet Potato Recipe - Dogs love our tasty whitefish, and it provides them with essential amino acids they need every day.
Wholesome Whole Grains Hearty whole grains like brown rice, barley and oats supply the complex carbohydrates that your dog needs for energy.
Healthy Garden Veggies Whole carrots, sweet potatoes and garlic are three of the nutrient-rich vegetables that your dog will get in every bite of BLUE.
LifeSource® Bits contain a precise blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants selected by holistic veterinarians and animal nutritionists. These include ingredients that have been shown to:
•Help counteract the negative impact of some environmental toxins •Help strengthen a dog's immune system •Help support his specific life stage requirements
Importantly, BLUE LifeSource Bits are "cold-formed" separately from the rest of our kibble to help preserve the potency of the ingredients. Other brands that add antioxidants, vitamins and minerals process all of their ingredients together at temperatures as high as 350°. Heat can degrade the potency of some vitamins by as much as 75%.
