Blue Buffalo Freedom PUP 4#

BLUE Freedom Grain-Free Chicken Recipe
for Puppies
Some puppies just don’t do well with grain-based foods. That’s why we created BLUE Freedom dry food for puppies. BLUE Freedom contains no grains, so it has no glutens. Glutens are known to trigger allergic reactions in some puppies.

A Grain-Free Food Made With The Finest Natural Ingredients.
BLUE Freedom for puppies is made with the finest natural ingredients—ingredients chosen with great care by our animal nutritionists to provide your puppy with the right balance of hiqh-quality protein and complex carbohydrates.

Deboned chicken is always the first ingredient.
Whole carrots, sweet potatoes and peas.
Blueberries and cranberries.
NO chicken or poultry by-product meals, NO corn, wheat or soy and nothing artificial.
BLUE Freedom for puppies is formulated to meet their special needs:

Delicious deboned chicken is the first ingredient, which promotes healthy muscle growth.
DHA, an important fatty acid found in mother’s milk, contributes to the development of cognitive learning and retinal function in puppies.
Unique “small-bite” kibble is the perfect size for smaller mouths and specially shaped to promote tartar removal.
