We love giving our dog treats for Christmas. This year, I decided to crochet a treat basket to hold all of our dog’s delicious goodies!

This year, Daisy is getting BLUE Santa Snacks® for Christmas. I don’t have to worry about what is in Blue Dog Treats. I know they are safe for Daisy to eat.

Daisy has a sensitivity to corn, soy, and wheat. I know that when I purchase Blue dog treats and dog food, we don’t have to worry about her getting sick due to her sensitive stomach.

Another great thing about BLUE Santa Snacks…there is no Chicken/Poultry by-product meals, artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors!

These treats contain Oatmeal, Barley, Pumpkin, Flaxseed, Carrots, and Cinnamon. They smell quite delicious! They are also made in fun holiday shapes!

Blue Santa Snacks can be picked up at your local Kroger, Meijer, Target, Chewy, Pet Smart and other select regional retailers.

Blue is also hosting a “Naughty or Nice” Holiday Contest. Make sure you enter the contest by submitting a photo of your naughty or nice pet! Winners are chosen each week to recieve a BLUE Stocking with Santa Snacks and a potential to win the grand prize of a $500 gift card.

Make sure you follow all Blue Buffalo on all social channels to keep up to date with all their products!
