Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula Puppy Food, Chicken-Brown Rice (5 lbs)
Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula Puppy Food is a natural food product designed for puppies, providing a balanced blend of high-quality protein, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. It contains deboned chicken as the first ingredient, offering a source of valuable protein for healthy muscle growth. This puppy food includes DHA and ARA, important fatty acids found in mother's milk, which support the cognitive learning and retinal function development of puppies. Additionally, the formula is enriched with wholesome whole grains such as brown rice, oatmeal, and barley, along with carrots, blueberries, and cranberries to supply essential nutrients. It also features Blue's exclusive LifeSource Bits, a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals selected by veterinarians and animal nutritionists that support immune system health, meet life stage requirements, and promote a healthy oxidative balance. These bits are cold-formed to preserve their potency. The product is formulated without the use of any chicken or poultry by-product meals, corn, wheat, soy, artificial flavors, or preservatives, aligning with the commitment to high-quality, natural ingredients. The small-bite kibble is crafted to suit smaller jaws and help maintain dental health through its crunchy texture, which aids in tartar removal. An optimal balance of Omega 3 & 6 Fatty Acids in the formula helps to ensure a shiny coat and healthy skin for puppies. • Color: None • Size: 5 Lb • Blue Buffalo Company, Ltd., 11 River Road, Wilton, CT, 06897
