Is Blue Wilderness a good food for puppy?

I am getting a 3 month old boxer in a few days and my head is spinning trying to decide best food for her.I am leaning toward Blue Wilderness as it is ASL and grain free.Another thing is the protein level too high?Thanks for input.Is Blue Wilderness a good food for puppy?
I would say no. Just because it has a higher protein content than their regular line. A puppy doesn't need that much protein.



If you want grain free - try Wellness.

Even if you went with Blue Buffalo's regular line - the grain that it contains is not even close to being harmful.
One of the Blue Wilderness varities is suspected of causing Hypercalcemia due to Vitamin D toxicity (see the link). To be on the safe side, I would choose a top quality large breed puppy formula (perhaps something from Wellness or Merrick) so your boxer will be getting the appropriate amount of protein for proper growth. Be sure to start her off with the food she's been already eating then gradually switching her to your food of choice.

that is correct blue buffalo does make puppy food as well...

http://bluebuffalo.com/products/dogs/pup鈥?/a> , for small and large breeds, when the dog gets about a year old then maybe you can switch him to the wilderness which is its topline food....
No, as already stated, the protein level is to high. However BB does produce other foods besides the "Wilderness" line.
