ORIJEN Original Dry Dog Food, Grain Free, 23.5 lb

El producto caduca en un mes.
Mi perro no lo terminará en un mes. Así que, o lo tiro o se lo doy caducado. Dado que el coste es muy elevado, habría preferido un producto más fresco.

80 lb australian shepherd, 8 years old. She’s a little tubby, and has a few medical issues, so she’s become a full time inside lap dog. Since then she’s become incredibly picky about what she eats, she wants people food, which only makes her belly problems worse, haha. I’ve tried 3 varieties of orijen now, and both dogs just gobble it up. This is the only fit n trim type dog food I’ve ever tried that dogs love to eat. It’s top tier food, great ingredients, and she’s feeling pretty great while eating it. Will order again.

I realize all dogs are different but I can’t feed this as a primary meal to my four dogs. However, it’s outstanding when used as a supplement only for my dogs. I am unable to feed it to my three German Shepherds and Chihuahua as their primary meals because fed in full meal amounts it causes all four to have extreme anal gland (AG) issues, i.e., to develop dark brown circles around their anuses and foul secretions from their AGs. I’m talking all four of my dogs developed the exact same issues within two weeks of feeding this food as their primary meals. When I stopped, all four dog’s AG issues cleared completely up withing a week and a half. I’m a Dog Behaviorist, Trainer & Canine Nutritionist, so I’m very careful and meticulous about identifying what’s good and not good to feed my canine kiddo’s, and in what quantities. I have found that “supplementing” my dogs with this food has a wonderful effect on their skin and coats; My Sheps get 1/8 cup of this food on top of their primary food twice per day and my Chihuahua gets 7 kibbles of it on top of his primary food twice per day. No AG problems at all when fed as a supplement as such and noticably improved skin and coats within 6 weeks.

Now, as for the smell, phew! Yes, even for a fish lover like me it is way too strong to store indoors! Rather, I pour the bag into airtight containers and store them in the garage refrigerator.

Please know I’m not knocking this food as I truly believe using it as a supplement is far superior to using the fish oil supplements they used to receive. So, I give this food 5 stars as a supplement but have to give it only 4 stars as a primary food for my dogs due to the AG issues it clearly causes them when fed as their primary meals.

I’ve been feeding this to my two finicky dogs for about two years. They both love it and it settles well in their stomachs, and make the chore of cleaning up after them much easier. Good quality ingredients as well.

When you absolutely adore your dog, you choose a high quality and safely made dog food like Orijen. My two Rhodesian Ridgebacks are large, healthy male dogs who love to eat. We’ve fed them Orijen since day one in addition to raw, and we feel they are getting the best balanced diet including turkey, chicken and fish. Having it on subscription makes life easy, especially with how much these dogs like to eat. We’re so thankful for a great food that our dogs really enjoy, and keeps them healthy and active.
