Performance notes

As a limited ingredient recipe, this formula sticks to chicken and brown rice as its core protein and carbohydrate, along with the antioxidant rich LifeSource Bits blend Blue Buffalo adds across its Life Protection line. It skips corn, soy, wheat, and artificial preservatives, which can matter for dogs with mild sensitivities even though it isn't marketed as hypoallergenic.
