FAQ
BLUE Wilderness contains:
- Barley: Whole grain with the hull and bran ?? an excellent source of soluble fiber, plus carbohydrates and B vitamins for digestive health.
- Brown Rice: Whole grain that provides essential B vitamins, minerals, and high-quality complex carbohydrates for energy and fiber.
- Oats (oatmeal): Oatmeal is wholesome, high-quality grain rich in B vitamins that gives dogs the energy they need.
Both types of diets can be a good fit. It just depends on the needs of your pet and your personal preference. Whole grains are complex carbohydrates that provide dogs with the energy they need to thrive. But if your pet has sensitivities to grains, you would want a grain-free option. Even Blue Buffalo??s diets with grains are made without corn or wheat ?? part of our True BLUE Promise. Instead, we use wholesome oats, barley, and brown rice. Both grains and grain-free carbohydrates are healthy and nutritious; we recommend talking with your veterinarian to decide which option is best for your pet.
While grains provide nutrition for pets, some people choose to avoid grains for various reasons. Grains are not common allergens in most dogs and cats, but if your pet is allergic to a specific grain or ingredient, you should avoid it. Blue Buffalo foods never contain corn, wheat or soy.
There are three main benefits of feeding grains:
- Grains are highly digestible sources of carbohydrates, which your pet can use for energy.
- Whole grains are filled with important nutrients including minerals, essential fatty acids, vitamins and fiber.
- Grains have been used in pet food for many years ?C most grains are considered safe and effective for pets.
