Orijen Puppy Food, Large, 11.4 kg

Orijen Puppy Large is my Newfoundland's favourite food. Free from grains and the unknown derivatives and such sourced "meat", Orijen food is 85% meat, with the remaining percentage lentils and similar non-grain foodstuffs. The first main ingredients are directly sourced fresh and dried meats, rather than derivatives. The Puppy Large differs from the standard yellow bagged Orijen Puppy, in that Puppy Large caters for the metabolic and growth requirements of large and giant breed dogs, which differ from small and medium breeds, and require high-quality protein for lean muscle growth and development, but a lower calorific and carbohydrate intake to help prevent excessive weight gain which can lead to undue stress and strain on growing joints and bones. Calcium and Phosphate levels are also specific for larger breeds, who can have too much of having to overeat less nutritious foods. The yellow bagged standard puppy is designed for all breeds other than large/giant breeds. It has the same 38% protein, but with a GI calorific value, for dogs that have a faster metabolism. The kibble is small but comprises of the same meat ingredients as the large puppy food. The puppy large kibble is slightly larger than the standard puppy kibble, and when placed next to an unnamed but similarly priced premium brand of dog food, my pup picks this every time. His growth has been steady and he is a very trim, lean dog with plenty of muscle and strength. His coat is also in great condition. If you can afford it, I would say it is most definitely worth having this for your large breed puppy. Alternatively, try the Acana range, which is made by the same manufacturers, but the ratio split is 2/3 dried to 1/3 fresh, rather than 2/3 fresh to 1/3 dried. The mantra is still the same, and while perhaps may not be as "premium" and Orijen, will still have the great nutritional benefits and trustworthiness from the manufacturer. As with any food switch, be sure to slowly mix in the food in increasing proportions over a week or so. If your dog is switching from a lower quality lower protein food, there may be some softer poos which they adjust, however, a good probiotic will help during this phase. I wouldn't have my pups on anything else. 5-month Newfoundland - Orijen Puppy Large 5-month French Bulldog - Orijen Puppy

We rehomed a Romanian rescue pup in March and, aware of their need for bland food for the first few weeks, we started her on Symply Puppy after a week or so of boiled chicken and rice. Despite being a normal healthy, active pup with a shiny coat and no other issues, her digestive tract just wasn't happy. After 2 months of very soft to liquid poo, that you could only smear around with a poo bag rather than pick up, and farts that were so bad you could literally chew the air, I decided to try her on the very highly rated, for both nutrition and results, Orijen Puppy. Based on the fact that her poos couldn't possibly get any worse, we transitioned her onto it much quicker than is recommended. Within days, things had started to solidify and the farting stopped. Now we are finally able to pick up well-formed turds of which there are only 3 or 4 a day (she was doing about 6, sometimes more, on Symply). Hallelujah! Now, I'm not saying that Symply is a bad choice of food (my mum's dog has been on it for years with no issues and it rates above 85% on the allaboutdogfood website) it just wasn't right for our pup...in the same way that Orijen may not suit your dogs. Comparing the ingredients, Symply had more carbohydrates and much less protein and fibre than Orijen. Clearly Orijen's ratio suits my pup more. It's a pity it isn't cheaper (it's £20 more for 600g less!) but I'm more than happy to take that hit if it means I don't have to go back to smearing liquid sh*t all over the grass and, many, many times, my hand.

Recently purchased for our new puppy. This food was highly reccomend by our breeder who has used this for a few years with both pups and adult dogs. He has said the quality is tried and tested. After seeing how much our puo enjoys it and the health and condition of the older dogs it was a no brained for us to continue with this feed. Arrived in great time also! Great ingredients, little smell and easy for puppies to digest.

This food is used to feed a Labrador retriever puppy and she is developing extremely well on it. I had researched and tried several brands in the past , always finding it extremely difficult to judge the food except by studying the content and seeing the dog before me. I have never been a fan of all kibble feeding and my senior labrador has a mix of wet and dry food. My new pup is not upset by the food and her coat is a testament to her health. Her stools are consistent and as they should be. I have not found it difficult to keep her weight and growth steady. I was sceptical about paying so much for the Orijen brand when there are cheaper alternatives available but I trust I am giving my pup the best start I possibly can.

I changed my puppy to Orijen from James Wellbeloved after doing my research on a dog food comparison site. I wanted him to have a higher quality food with a good meat content, good veg and herbs without all the starchy filler foods. Orijen fits the bill! I switch him very slowly by combining the two over several weeks (as I had a lot of his other brand to use) and so he had no tummy issues. I’ve noticed a very definite improvement in his behaviour since switching, he doesn’t get hyperactive and has a lot more focus. He’s also stops trying to eat everything in the garden including the lawn, Moss, plants and compost! Of course some of that will be down to his age, but he does still get hyper if he has too much peanut butter etc, so I think diet plays it’s part.

I have given this 4 stars because I know this is a very superior dog food, however, no matter how much I wanted my puppy on this she didn't like it and wouldn't eat it. I have given up with dried food for her as she has to be starving to eat it and I want my puppy to look forward to meal times and eat with pleasure. Nell is not a hungry dog and not the least bit greedy even with so called training treats, and I have tried the best, she is more interested in everything and everyone around her. I really wanted her to love this food but it is not to be.

Pas de surprise avec ces croquettes qui sont de qualité, que mon chien adore et qui ont une composition idéale pour la digestion.

I selected this product to give to my 7month old Rottweiler puppy because it is grain free and contains high-quality animal protein from multiple sources. Read on about "Whole Prey diet for dogs" to know why this product is better than the many other alternatives currently available. This product is packed in a vacuum sealed packaging to prevent air entering and leading to biological contamination and staleness. The product is tightly packed with no loose kibbles and maintains a rigid shape. When you shake the package, it should make no loose sounds. Only once you open the seal, the package will loosen up and you can then feel the loose kiddles inside it. I've ordered multiples times satisfactorily but in one instance got a damaged product which had air entered into it due to possibly bad storage. Otherwise this is a puppy food worth 5starts.

Ottime crocchette! Spedizione puntuale.

No grains. Great quality ingredients. Makes poop smell a bit but it’s okay as long as my puppy is getting all the right nutrients.
