Blue Buffalo Wilderness Chicken Grain Free Recipe Life Protection Formula

This formula is inspired by the diet of wolves--true omnivores whose endurance is legendary.  BLUE Wilderness is a protein-rich, grain-free food that contains more of the delicious chicken your dog loves.  This recipe comprises the finest natural ingredients--and no grains: 

• Deboned chicken, chicken meal and turkey meal supply the essential amino acids your dog needs to support healthy muscle development.
• Sweet potatoes and potatoes provide healthy complex carbohydrates.
• Blueberries, cranberries and carrots support antioxidant-enrichment.
• Omega 3 & 6 Fatty Acids promote a shiny coat & healthy skin.
• Calcium and Essential Vitamins help maintain strong bones and teeth.

Blue Buffalo Wilderness is a sensible alternative to raw diets.  Raw diets are less convenient to prepare than BLUE Wilderness.  What’s more, with raw diets you typically need to provide additional supplements to ensure that what you’re feeding your dog is nutritionally complete.

LifeSource^® Bits contain a precise blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants selected by holistic veterinarians and animal nutritionists. These include ingredients that:

• Help maintain a healthy oxidative balance
• Help support a dog's healthy immune system
• Help promote 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°F. Heat can degrade the potency of some vitamins by as much as 75%.
