Serve dry or lightly moistened. See your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry location.
When switching diets, it’s important to transition your dog or puppy as it takes time for her digestive system to adapt to the richer nutrient levels in ORIJEN. Over a 5-7 day period, gradually mix in ORIJEN, increasing the amount each day so that by day 7 you are feeding 100% ORIJEN.

Whew! She's eating again!
By Lilahmom on Jun 3, 2021
Our 13 year old Great Pyrenees with arthritis and a sensitive tummy has been turning up her nose at her tried and true food. We tried toppers, flavorers, broth, everything we could think of to make it enticing for her. I found this Orijens after reading reviews on Chewy and decided to go for it even though it's pricey. In reality it's not as pricey as I thought because I need to feed so much less, volume-wise. Which probably helped Lilah finish her meals too! She really loves this, eats it dry with no need to add any extras! Thank goodness!

Healthy poop!
By Jfauntleroy on May 25, 2021
I’m transitioning my dog from the vet prescribed food and I’ve already noticed a difference in the last few weeks of her stool and body shape. I will be pairing this food with brown rice and veggies when she’s all the way transitioned since the food is MAINLY protein. But my little old lady is much happier so far!

No resealable bag
By Ljw57 on Jun 2, 2021
My dog loves this food, and the kibble size is perfect for her, but why on earth would a 25-pound bag not be resealable? I bought a 4lb bag locally to give it a try, and that bag is perfectly resealable. It's pretty ridiculous, and very disappointing.

Every last bite
By Coley on May 26, 2021
This one was a little sad as it was hard to believe we were actually looking for senior food for our little guy. :( But he dove right into this from day one. No side effects. Finishes every last bite. Loves it!

Still on the fence ...
By Tracy on Mar 28, 2021
I decided to give Orijen dog food a try because of the coupon made available. I was expensive but my dog is worth it to me. Even with the coupon, it was very pricey and I don’t think my dog tasted any difference. I’m going back to our usual and not ordering Orijen again until I see a good reason why it is so expensive. I feel a little duped.

Kibble is too big
By JNelle on Mar 26, 2021 top1000Contributor
Was hoping my 9 year old Papillon could transition over to this slowly, but the kibble size is very large. She didn't go for that at all, and left it in the bottom of her bowl. Going to soak the kibble ahead of time in Merrick's Chicken Broth or warm water and see if that will encourage her. Just wish the kibble was smaller, the ingredients are super great for senior dogs.

Supply chain
By Suzanne on May 4, 2021
This brand hard to find locally and thus far Chewy has it in stock. But have a friend on auto ship of her food and scheduled date has been missed. Chewy has contacted her and explained. So their CS is on the ball.

Best in the world
By peaches623 on Mar 13, 2021
Very best dog food that we have found on the shelf and on internet that the ingredients are true to a natural biological correct canine food, I keep it down as snack food and for a meal replacement when I don't have enough regular human food of meat, vegetables, and fruits for my two fur girls. And they love it and refuse to eat any other kind of dog food.

He likes it!
By TJ29 on Apr 18, 2021
Dog approved, immediately wanted to eat when he's typically a grazer. My ONLY complaint is I WISH the bag was closable to keep in freshness. As it is, I clamp it shut. But they should really improve on this.

So Far So Good!
By VegasBoxerMom on Mar 4, 2021
I've been trying to find a dog food for our boxer that she will eat and it is healthy. I was feeding Eukanuba Boxer, she liked that for awhile and then stopped eating it. So I tried the Fromm brand and she didn't like that at all, ended up trying this next. Third times a charm so far. I like that the first five ingredients are real meats. Hopefully she continues to enjoy this food.
