- 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.
- Puppies: At 1 1/2 - 3 months old, feed twice the adult amount. At 3-6 months, feed 1 1/2 times the adult amount. At 6-11 months, feed 1 1/4 times the adult amount.
- Gestation: increase from 25% to 50% of the adult amount.
- Lactation: feed 'free choice'.
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.
About ORIJEN Dry Dog Food
The Pinnacle of Nutrition

15 FRESH OR RAW INGREDIENTS
With at least 15 fresh or raw ingredients in every recipe, ORIJEN kibble is the closest thing to feeding a raw diet.
ORIJEN'S WHOLEPREY DIET
ORIJEN recipes include meat, organs, and bone, so your dog can enjoy the most nutrient-dense and succulent parts of the prey.

Transitioning to ORIJEN
Acclimate your dog to a new ORIJEN diet by transitioning gradually from the old food you were feeding. Start by replacing 25% of the old diet with ORIJEN food, increasing the new food amount proportionally over the next 10-14 days. By the end of the second week, you should be feeding 100% ORIJEN.

Top Pick By the Princess
By PeppsMom on Jun 3, 2021
The universe has blessed us with the privilege of loving her highness Princess Brandlyn Elizabeth - we call her Brandy. She refuses to eat anything less than the best and SHE selected Orijen Small Breed. We ordered Ollie for her as we want her to love her food. We’d put both the Ollie wet and Orijen kibble down. After a week, she simply stopped eating the Ollie and only ate the Orijen. It is also worth mention that her coat was brittle and sparse when she rescued us. I was prepared to condition and love her coat back to life, but there was no need once we started feeding her Orijen. After a few weeks her coat was soft and shining. Saved me a lot of money at the pup parlor. If anything - she The universe has blessed us with the privilege of loving her highness Princess Brandlyn Elizabeth - we call her Brandy.

Great Dog Food
By Sherry on Jun 10, 2021
My Cavalier King Charles spaniel loves Orijen dog food. When I get the bage out, she watches me until I put her dish down! She gobbles it up. I have tried so many kinds of food for her to no avail. She is very picky! I’m very happy that she likes Origen since it is so good for!

THANK YOU Orijen!!
By momobitesu on May 20, 2021
Our 3 year old maltipoo had been resisting any kibbles in his bowl. We might’ve tried about 10 different brands and adding vegetables to it but nothing worked. Also, I am very picky with the ingredients in his food. He didn’t really like the original kibbles from Orijen, but he absolutely love this new product Thank you orijen, my dog finally eats from his bowl.

It's a must try if you can afford it!
By Mary on Apr 30, 2021
My 10lb toy aussie is rather picky and didn't necessarily love her wellness food, she just wouldn't eat it all. This food she loves, she eats it all right away, and the change in her coat was so noticeable after about a week on this food. It's super soft and fluffed up a lot and her little bit of dandruff cleared right up! I don't feed her a grain free diet. She still gets grains in treats, but her overall health seems wonderful and I would highly recommend at least trying this for your dog, especially if they are picky.

Exceptional Quality
By lisa on May 5, 2021
We have been breeding dogs for over 40 years and there is no doubt that Orijen is one of the best dog foods available. All of our dogs are fed this food and the puppies are all started on it, with a new bag going home with each pup. Yes, it is also one of the most expensive but it is SO nutritionally dense and complete that we are able to feed less than other brands. I HIGHLY recommend this food!

Absolutely love it
By Heather on Apr 15, 2021
I love that they have a small breed, but so wish they would expand upon that. My little Chihuahua is so picky, but she is also 13, and even though I have been faithful with her teeth cleanings, she still has bad teeth, so I would love if they had a senior small breed that had just a bit smaller kibble, and maybe focused more on senior dogs. I guess I should just be happy my little dog will eat something that her stomach doesn't get upset over. Grateful for that at least!

Picky dog approves
By Cfitznelson on Apr 20, 2021
I have the pickiest dog IN THE WORLD. No seriously. She will turn her nose up at the most expensive, raw diet, you name it. She even turns down homemade meat/rice if I dare give it to her more than 2 consecutive days. so far she loves this. She has eaten it 6 days straight which is 5 days longer than she’s ever eaten any dry kibble In her life. She usually stares at it for days and goes on a hunger strike. Two paws up!

Seems like good stuff
By belle on May 20, 2021
My chihuahua snacks on this during the day in between her wet foods. She is picky but she seems to like it. It smells like fish. It seems to be a healthy food with good quality ingredients.

This is the ONLY dry dog food I have found that my finicky dog will eat. I am so glad that Chewy carries this brand now so I can easily order it.

Small Breed
By Crash on Apr 26, 2021
I ordered ORIJEN Dog food because of all the good reviews. I have a 13pound Japanese Chin. The small bits are to small for her. She cant keep the food in her mouth. It was my fault not the brand.
