DESCRIPTION
Like their ancestors before them, dogs were born to love meat. That's why high-protein BLUE Wilderness puppy food is packed with the meat dogs crave. With delicious real chicken as the first ingredient, Blue Buffalo Wilderness Natural Grain-Free Dry Food for Puppies, Chicken Recipe provides natural, balanced nutrition to help your puppy thrive while satisfying their wild side. This protein-rich, grain-free formula contains fats, complex carbohydrates, fruits, and vegetables for wholesome, well-rounded nutrition without the grains some Pet Parents choose to avoid. High-quality protein from deboned chicken supports healthy muscle growth, while DHA and ARA, fatty acids found in mother's milk, support your puppy's brain and eye development. BLUE Wilderness puppy foods are backed by the True BLUE Promise and always start with real, high-quality meat, poultry, or fish. They contain no chicken or poultry by-product meals, no corn, wheat, or soy, and no artificial flavors or preservatives.
