Brady gets "Blue" for small breeds. Its made of deboned chicken, whole grains, garden vegetables, and fruit. There philosophy is, "If it's not good enough for us, it's not good enough for our dogs". The website for the dog food has the following story of why they started the brand:    
Blue, Bill and Jackie's large breed Airedale, who is the inspiration for our company and one of the best pals who ever put on a collar.    
When Blue had his last bout with cancer, we did some research and found out that cancer is the number one cause of death for both dogs and cats. And while there's a lot of research going on relative to the causes, prevention and treatment of cancer, many veterinarians are beginning to link the increases in environmental toxins with the growing incidence of this disease.   
We hadn't thought much about toxins in the past, but when we looked into it a little further we found that they are virtually everywhere. Almost all of the household surface and rug cleaners have warnings on their labels; lawn and garden fertilizers and pesticides are toxic (just look at all of those little yellow signs) and the list goes on. This doesn't even include air pollution and the decline in water quality (which is why bottled water has become a multibillion-dollar business). All of these things have a big impact on dogs and cats because of their size and proximity to the toxins themselves.   
Once we had this information we decided to make a food that would include ingredients to nourish our companions along with ones that had been scientifically shown to provide an extra level of protection against environmental toxins. Our first step was meeting with leading experts in canine and feline nutrition. With them, we developed the BLUE™ Life Protection Formula dog food and BLUE™ Spa Select™ cat food.
