Orijen food of the year - Page 2

I feed my dog Orijen, she's doing extremely well on it so far.
She came to me weaned on Hill's Science Diet and I put her onto Eukanuba. Eukanuba she eventually hated, went on to Royal Canin which she also eventually hated. Followed with Eagle Pack, until that was discontinued by the supplier so now she is on Orijen.
 Orijen and EP are the only foods she would willingly eat and have a good coat with, otherwise she'd scratch and itch like crazy despite being flea-free. I give her plenty of meaty bones and chicken pieces, occaisionally tinned fish. It's very hard to find cheap, quality fresh food for myself let alone her.  Also as I flat and we travel a lot due to my work (Air Force) it's simply not practical for me to feed her raw.
 It's impossible to find most of the highly recommended foods from this and other sites in NZ, so I'm extremely pleased I can get Orijen. Feed what works for your dog, if you're thinking of Orijen, I would certainly recommend it because my dog is doing very well on it.

hiya Misbeeb.yes i have tried Duck and yes it is a very good raw food.the dog food company which i use for my minces does carry it.Atm.i feed AMP.frozen nuggets in the mornings with fresh organ meat,cottage cheese or boiled/scrambled eggs or pre.biotic yoghurt at lunch and RMB (CHICKEN CARCASS,LAMB RIBS,PORK RIBS)in the evenings.treats are 1 charcoal bonio each and Fish4dogs treats(2 each)per day.may see yu at the british sieger.hope yu are keeping well.Carole S.

 I also feed Orijen for large puppies and Kirkland puppy feed. I mix one 30 lb bag of Orijen and the 20 lb bag of Kirkland. I believe this makes for a decent nutrition plan and cost a little less than using Orijen alone. An alternative would be to use Acana dog food. It is made by Orijen but a little less expensive. 

Living in Canada I get the Orijen 30 lb bag for 67.00$ + taxes CND and the Kirkland for 18.00$ CND.

We pay $32 for 40lb bag of Kirkland at Costco and Orijen is about $75-$80 for 30lb bag.  I'm in Northern BC.

 Hi Aceofspades,

The prices I quoted were for a area about 50 clicks north of Montreal.

Our male needs to eat 6 cups of Kirkland to stay fit, but only needs 4 cups of Orijen.

Since we started feeding Orijen he has filled out, his coat is glossy, his BM's are solid and he actually likes to eat.

Yes its expensive, but it works for this dog. Kirkland and/or Nature's Domain works very well  for our other dogs. Except for our old diabetic Aussie, she is doing very well on Purina One - Senior. She likes it and no potatoes.....

It all depends on the individual dog and what they do well on.

i have fed orijen for a couple of years and was pleased with the results, but you can also look at the sister food the acana no grain formulas. cheaper, very comparable but my dogs consistently have done better on it. i believe reason is not as rich and high in protein.
for me its the best food out there, and i have tried all the high end foods. i have raised probably 5 litters on it now and stool is always consistent in pups.
