And like all Blue Buffalo natural dog foods, BLUE Basics contains no chicken (or poultry) by-product meals. It's also free of corn, wheat, soy, artificial flavors, and preservatives. From the Manufacturer And because it’s BLUE, it’s made with only the finest natural ingredients: Deboned Turkey, a high quality protein not typically used in dog food. Made with potatoes, an easily-digestible carbohydrate source. NO chicken (or poultry) by-product meals and NO corn, wheat, soy, dairy or eggs

Review: Great food! - This is the ONLY food my little dog can eat! Ive tried other brands thru out the years (he is now 11 years old) and every time I do, he gets itchy all over again. The only reason I even TRY to switch him to a different food is because I feel sorry for him and want him to have a different flavor OR because I want him to have a senior dog food now. But I am NOT trying to switch him for ANY reason ANYMORE. The poor thing is miserable unless he is on this food. He likes this food too. So I’m not changing him again. I only wish they made this for senior dogs in an even smaller kibble. The kibble size is small, don’t get me wrong, but as tiny dogs age, I feel like they need an even smaller kibble size because of their teeth. But I highly recommend this food if your dog is an itch dog.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the pieces small bites that a Chihuahua can easily handle?**
A: Yes. The bites are less than the size of a white bean or kidney bean. So think Chihuahua would have no problem. My pup loves the turkey and potato. ( pink bag)

**Q: The 1st ingredient is supposed to be Turkey, but under "Important Information" the ingredients are listed as having Chicken 1st. Is that wrong?**
A: The ingredient listing on Amazon is incorrect. Below is the correct listing:Deboned Turkey, Turkey Meal, Whole Ground Brown Rice, Oatmeal, Peas, Flaxseed (source of Omega 3 and 6 Fatty Acids), Potatoes, Canola Oil (preserved with Mixed Tocopherols), Natural Turkey Flavor, Tomato Pomace (source of Lycopene), Whole Carrots, Blueberries, Cranberries, Barley Grass, Dried Parsley, Alfalfa Meal, Dried Kelp, Yucca Schidigera Extract, L-Carnitine, L-Lysine, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, Chondroitin Sulfate, Turmeric, Oil of Rosemary, Dried Chicory Root, Beta-Carotene, Calcium Carbonate, Dicalcium Phosphate, Vitamin A Supplement, Thiamine Mononitrate (Vitamin B1), Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Niacin (Vitamin B3), d-Calcium Pantothenate (Vitamin B5), Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Biotin (Vitamin B7), Folic Acid (Vitamin B9), Vitamin B12 Supplement, Calcium Ascorbate (source of Vitamin C), Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin E Supplement, Iron Amino Acid Chelate, Zinc Amino Acid Chelate, Manganese Amino Acid Chelate, Copper Amino Acid Chelate, Choline Chloride, Sodium Selenite, Calcium Iodate, Salt, Caramel, Potassium Chloride, Dried Yeast (source of Saccharomyces cerevisiae), Dried Lactobaciullus Acidophilus faecium fermentation product.

**Q: Is this product grain free?**
A: Blue Basic includes turkey, omega 3 & 6 fatty acids, pea fiber and pumpkin, and vitamins E & C.
It does not include chicken, beef, dairy, eggs, corn, wheat, soy, artificial flavors, or artificial preservatives.. I hope this helps, Lisa

**Q: When is the expiration date?**
A: On the back of your bag, towards the bottom, there is an area printed in purple that says “Best if used by”  then under those words is a date.

*by K***E on September 27, 2025*

I have a senior small breed dog with an extremely sensitive stomach and she does great with this kibble. She loves it and has been eating it for years now, it’s the only kibble I’ve found that’s never made her sick.
