ORIJEN Grain Free Poultry Free High Protein Dry Dog Food Six Fish Recipe 23.5lb Bag

I switched to ORIJEN Original after hearing good things, and it did not disappoint. The ingredients are high-quality, the smell is fresh, and my dog loves it. Her dermatitis issue with the previous cheap dog food has disappeared. Absolutely worth it for the nutrition and quality.

This is a great quality food and my dog loves it! It helps keep her coat healthy and shiny and her stools are much more normal and consistent with this food vs the other food we used to feed her.

Great dog food. Poops are perfect with this food and she loves it. The quality bag it comes in is super easy to open with hidden pull tab. I wish it was resealable though because the food does lose some of its appeal after it’s been exposed to air for a long time. Easy solution is to just get a container for it but then towards the end of the bag, it’s still getting lots of air, a resealable bag would be better and cost less.

>.. Orijen is possibly the most respected dry dog food available to the average US consumer. So much so, that there have been reports of bags of dog food looking like these being imported from Asia. [Orijen is only in North America] Having a responsible source for this food is important to my dogs. >.. Is this inexpensive? NO. it runs about $4.00 per pound at the time I write this. I know, I was shocked too, unless you compare ingredients in this food with other pet food offered. Primary ingredients are wild meats, fish, poultry. Not by-products, but meat suitable to be offered to human consumers. These meats are then processed enough to get down to weight and size needed. Then they are mixed with grasses and other plant foods (20-25%) as mimicked in natural dog eating habits. with the primary (80%) of the kibble being meat - human eatable meat [not rejected for human consumption] then processed. Now, the cost is seen by me as reasonable. >.. This all started when I found my dogs ignoring their daily chow. They would nibble at the kibble and lick the canned food, but were not interested in really eating it. I bought more expensive - "premium" dog food and the same result, not really interested. Then I went to "super premium" commercial dog food, same result, partially interested, but not eager eaters. So I researched dog food and stumbled on two items of interest. 1. Orijen Dog Foods. and 2. raw diets for dogs. >.. What my research had found was that most of my dog's dry and canned foods were starchy carbohydrates and not protein centered. And even the "no grain" dog foods were filled with potatoes, or other starchy foods (cassava was the latest starch I saw) which dogs have no real ability to digest. These commercial dog foods were trying to emulate the Standard American Diet, not the foods that carnivores eat in the wild. >.. Carnivores (meat eaters) usually consume a fair amount of meat and some other stuff (like fur, bones, etc.) from eating their prey straight from the kill. Orijen does it's best to replicate this balance in their product, thus keeping the cost for them, and the price for us, at an higher than normal level. But the QUALITY is much HIGHER than most commercial, premium and super-premium pet foods. My dogs are very eager eaters, now. And I have used the kibble, by itself, and a training treat for them as well. They love it! >.. Because foods that are vacuum sealed often lose their goodness if not maintained under vacuum, I open the bag, and then fill 1 quart vacuum bags with the food, and reseal the extra food under vacuum. This can take some time, effort and cost, but if I am paying a premium price, I ought to maintain it as best I can. I usually get about 15 vacuumed sealed bags out of a 25 pound bag, and I open one only when I need to get more dry dog food. The rest are stored, vacuum sealed, out of the sunlight, and at a cool temperature until needed. My primary use of the Orijen is to supplement the raw food diet I prepare for my dogs. I feed each of them 1 pound raw food, and then add the Orijen to supplement to the Calorie level my Veterinarian has suggested. >.. I might be a bit obsessed about my dogs food, but it is the most common and best way to see that I contribute to their ongoing good health.

I rescued a 7 month old Husky recently. When I took her into the Vet for a wellness check, I had asked the vet what would be the best food for her. Without hesitation the Vet said Purina Pro Plan was the best! So trusting my vet I went out and bought the food. I feed my dog the Purina Pro Plan food and she sniffed around it at first and ate it. The food gave her diarrhea. Knowing huskies have notoriously sensitive stomachs, i thought I'd try sticking to it to see if she normalized. It wasn't happening. During that time decided to educate myself on dog foods. Obviously fresh dog food is the best. I don't have time to scratch make dog food myself, and the fresh dog food in the big brand stores is either too expensive, or I cannot depend on them to keep it in stock regularly enough. I came across Orijen dog food and the first thing I noticed were the ingredients. The first ten ingredients in a dog food is pretty telling. Here's the first ten for Orijen's Original Dog Food: Chicken, turkey, salmon, whole herring, chicken liver, dehydrated chicken, dehydrated turkey, dehydrated chicken liver, dehydrated egg, and dehydrated sardine. Did you see mention of any "by-products" or "meal"? Nope, because it's not there. If you take a look at the first ten ingredients for Purina Pro Plan for puppies they are: Beef, rice, whole grain corn, poultry-byproduct meal, whole grain wheat, egg product, beef fat, pea fiber, fish meal and natural flavors. Clearly Orijen is the winner here. What they put in their dog food is so much better for our four legged friends. I switched my husky to Orijen's Original food and things have been great. She has a beautiful shiny coat. She has had no digestive issues. Her energy level has gone up and she enjoys this food! Don't ask your vet what to feed your dog. There's a reason they suggest Purina and it's not because it's the best food for them. Do your research. Purina doesn't even make the top 20 when it comes to foods that are better for your dog. Try Orijen if you're looking to feed your dog well! . .

This dog food is excellent quality and clearly made with great ingredients. While it is a bit pricey, the results are worth it—my dogs absolutely love the taste and eagerly eat every meal. After feeding them this food for a while, I’ve noticed their coats look much healthier, shinier, and softer. It’s a great choice for pet owners who want to invest in their dog’s nutrition and overall well-being. Highly recommended despite the higher cost.

I did a LOT of research before purchase! The wonderful thing about ORIJEN is they do not spend money on advertising, all that money goes to research and they are top award winners evert year. The products are made in a stand along manufacturing facility (in Sudbury) I think. One may, if they choose, go in and see the products in production! No menu foods scandal is possible with is first rate, independent product. I have a dog that is going on 15 years and though white in the face is still doing well. All she ever gets is ORIJEN!

La verdad a mi pastor aleman le encanto el cambio a Orijen, previamente usaba royal canine. Lo único que lo vuelve difícil es el precio, no se si pueda seguirlas comprando por el precio.

All my dogs love your products. Thank you.

This product is internally acclaimed and of top quality.Its a must by product and all pets like it very much.

愛犬家の義姉から勧められて我が家の犬に買いました。市販のドライフードは毛がパサパサしていたのでこちらに変えて様子を見ています。お魚の匂いが強いので美味しそうに喜んで食べています。賞味期限もしっかりあって信頼出来る商品です。
