BLUE Life Protection Formula Puppy Chicken and Brown Rice Recipe

BLUE Life Protection Formula Puppy Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe — Dog Food

For growing puppies.

Product Description

Puppyhood is the stage where nutrition does the most work, and this recipe is formulated for it — higher protein and calories to fuel rapid growth, with the nutrients that developing bodies need. Protein-rich deboned chicken leads the ingredient list, backed by wholesome whole grains including brown rice, garden vegetables, and antioxidant-rich fruit. DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid found in mother's milk, supports cognitive development and eye health during those early months.

Every bag includes Blue Buffalo's LifeSource Bits: a cold-formed blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals selected by animal nutritionists and veterinarians, with a formulation tuned to a puppy's developing immune system. Cold-forming preserves nutrient potency that high-heat processing can degrade.

Made without chicken or poultry by-product meals, without corn, wheat, or soy, and with no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.

Feeding Guidelines

Feed according to the chart on the bag, adjusting for your puppy's age and expected adult weight. Young puppies do best on three or four smaller meals a day, tapering to two by around six months. Keep fresh water available at all times.

Most dogs transition to an adult formula somewhere between 9 and 12 months, though large and giant breeds often stay on puppy food longer. Your veterinarian can tell you when the timing is right for your dog.

When switching foods — including the eventual move to adult food — transition over about 7 days, starting at roughly 25% new food and increasing every couple of days.

For puppies. Store in a cool, dry place and keep the bag sealed for freshness.
