Ask Susan Peters - Blue Healthy Pet Foods?

Blue has done a poor job of making healthy Pet foods. Healthy pet foods do not include needless grains and other pet health damaging ingredients.

I do not like the use of table salt in a pet's diet.

Grains. Blue has not used the killer grains, corn, wheat, and soy but sure has over used other grains. Our pets are meat eaters, Blue.

Blue has used chicken fat to get your dog to eat this package of chicken feed. Fat has no value to a dog's diet and is included in the mix only to encourage a pet to eat a product the dog would not normally eat.

Natural Flavor. I always like the way pet food companies hide the use of manure in the ingredients. Natural flavor is made from the manure of the animal the pet food company wants the pet food to taste like. If natural flavor were an actual part of the ingredients and not an added ingredient the pet food company would not have to list natural flavor as a seperate ingredient.

Sodium selenite is mainly used in the manufacture of colorless glass - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

I see I am going to have to revise my reviews to include other needless grains to be able to rate this product like I feel like it should be rated. I do not trust the history of recalls associated with Blue Pet Foods.

Pet food producers are using ingredients unfit for human consumption which are killing our pets. The ingredients in pet food must be changed!

The use of Corn, Wheat, and Soy are causing such awful conditions in pets including:

  • Dry and itchy skin
  • Fever
  • Ear aches
  • Ear infections
  • Hot Spots on the skin
  • Bad breath
  • Dental disease
  • IBD
  • Hair loss
  • Sore feet
  • Abnormal nail growth
  • Bloat
  • Weight gain
  • Tumors
  • Moles and warts
  • Seizures
  • Blindness
  • Deafness
  • Heart conditions
  • Kidney conditions
  • Liver conditions
  • Early pet death

These companies need to be held accountable for the injuries to our pets and our best friends early deaths!

Thanks for reviewing this product. My friend was going to buy it for her cat this weekend, due to the high price her husband said no way. I recently returned mine to petsmart. We are only buying the ones you have reviwed.

Thanks,

I don't understand. Your review talks about unecessary grains but the Wilderness Formula is a high protein diet. Does your review specifically refer to the Wilderness line or is it a general review of Blue Spa products? I have been trying to find a healthy food but my cat is very very picky and after spending hundreds on cans, raw and cooking my own meals for him, he has finally found a brand that he'll eat-Blue Wilderness.

I agree with previous poster Deanna. This review is nonsesical and seems full of bias against the company Blue.

I have only recently discovered this lo-carb cat food after revising my personal nutritional beliefs to fall in line with a primal diet. Wish I'd sought and found this food earlier because I just buried my pal Peege who died at 19 from kidney disease leading to sepsis. A Blue diet might have given her another healthy 2 or 3 years or more.

Susan gave highest marks to a dry kibble treat with grain higher on the ingredient list than Blue's Wilderness. I think her heart is certainly in the right place but her analysis of Blue Wilderness and her seeming dislike of the Blue company pretty much negate this review.

As an aside, I think chicken fat is a fine ingredient. I imagine primal cats got their share of primal fat.

I'm just starting mine on a diet of Blue and plan to include Innova EVO. Done with the cheap, crappy, grainy catfood.
