High-Quality Protein
Dogs love our tasty chicken, and it provides them with essential amino acids they need every day.
Wholesome Whole Grains
Hearty whole grains like brown rice, barley and oats supply the complex carbohydrates that your dog needs for energy.
Healthy Garden Veggies
Whole carrots, sweet potatoes and garlic are three of the nutrient-rich vegetables that your dog will get in every bite of BLUE.

LifeSource® Bits contain a precise blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants selected by holistic veterinarians and animal nutritionists. These include ingredients that have been shown to:
- Help counteract the negative impact of some environmental toxins
- Help strengthen a dog's immune system
- Help support his specific life stage requirements
Importantly, BLUE LifeSource Bits are "cold-formed" separately from the rest of our kibble to help preserve the potency of the ingredients. Other brands that add antioxidants, vitamins and minerals process all of their ingredients together at temperatures as high as 350°. Heat can degrade the potency of some vitamins by as much as 75%.
 I have three Siberian Huskies and have tried every natural food available for them. I needed the right balance of nutrition and skin conditioning supplements without all the added fat. While using some of the other natural brands, my dogs became overweight and lethargic. I have been using your BLUE brand for four months and my dogs look and feel fantastic!  They have balanced their weight and have the energy of puppies. Thank you.
