Orijen ....

Now in process of swapping Angel from Arden Grange to Orijen .
No real reason just thought i'd try her on it .
Done a lot of reading up and seems a very good product .
Of late she seemed a bit fussy with her food , something I think is caused because I work away a lot so she's sad when her pop goes away ....
So started the 20 minute rule , which touch wood , seems to be working a treat .

Anyone else use Orijen .... she really likes it ....

They had an orijon stall at the ultimat pet show - rocco loved their food, but it's so expensive and they are both doing well on arden grange i didn't personally see the point in changing. It's a good food though.

We are using it. He seems to like it and his poo is hard and in limited quantities (so I assume he digests most of the food).

We bought some for Barney.....but he wouldn't touch it at all!! We put him on Royal canin and he wolfs that down, and his coat is lovely and shiny and he's doing really good on it!! We have been putting a little bit of the Orijen that we had left over in with his RC and he's been eating it. I'd like him to eat Orijen all the time cuz it's good stuff, but aint too fussed that he doesn't....he's doing great on RC.

i feed my staff and my boxer on it and they love it my boxer waz a real fussy eater but he seems to enjoy this food you can only give it a go and if they dont like it then try something else every dog is different and like diffrenet types of food

Exactly!!

Well , 2 days in and Angel is waiting at her little feeding area for her tea , not at all like her , she is enjoying it , and yes , her poopers are smaller and firmer , easier to pick up ...

I have had Ruby on Orijen and she blossomed on it. Although we have her on Nutro Puppy at the moment (introduced gradually of course) and she seems to like this I still like Orijen better. I know it's fairly expensive but cost doesn't matter to me, it's her glossy coat and growing well that matters. I will be ordering some more Orijen now that I have my new bank card. (I cut up the wrong one when I got a new one through the post but that's a different story!)

billy likes orijen i dont think it is that expensive £44 and lasts a couple of months

If I just had the one staff I would poss feed it but feeding two would be too expensive as I only pay £30 for my arden grange.

We had Sadie on it and her poops were really firm. She was super gassy on it though so we had to switch to a lower protein food.

Angel has dropped a few corkers since she's been on it , but she really does look good , coat seems gorgeous .....
I'll put up with her trumping !

Do you buy it locally monty or online and have it delivered?

i have to order mine i order mine from gjw titmuss ltd i have to make sure i order some before i run its a bit of a pain but its worth the hassle because my dogs love it

I've seen them in a google search but I've never ordered from them I might have another look!

I am trying a sack of Orijen for Fen when her Arden Grange gets low. I've done a lot of reading about it, and it sounds excellent!

Those of you who say your dogs are gassy on it, I read that they can be gassy on it to start with because it's such a good high quality food, and the gas is a result of the dog's body detoxifying any nasties it may have! I read you should carry on feeding for a couple of months, then the gassiness should settle down!

I bought it from Petplanet , free delivery after £29 spent , and I must say Angel is loving it , she can't seem to get enough and is really looking good ....

She looks fantastic really lovely coat

She really does look in wonderful condition MONTY! I can't wait to get some Orijen for Fen! I got a trial bag, and she loved it! The only thing I noticed was that it only had a few weeks 'til it went out of date. I'm hoping this is just because it was a trial bag. Could someone else look on their sack of Orijen and check the use by date, and let me know? I'm sure it's fine, I just worry about these things! Thanks!

My bag still has quite a long way to go , and thank you for kind comments ....

Thanks for that, must just be the trial bags then!

Okay now I'm confused. On the Orijen site they make a big song and dance about the fact that there's no grain in it at all. I just switched to James Wellbeloved because I was told it was good for puppies but it has got rice and oats in it.

What's the deal?

Rice and oats isn't as bad as maize and wheat, which can cause nasty side effects in some dogs. I don't know of a dog food other than Orijen that has 0% grain in.

taste of the wild has no grain very similar to orijen but looks a bit darker as for the dates on the bag a brought a sack friday and it runs out 2010 all the sacks are vacumed packed as well

Ok cheers for letting me know! Can't wait to get Fen on Orijen!

how much did you pay amber a got the biggest bag of puppy and its just gone up to £47

I've only tried a trial bag so far lol! If you get it from Pet planet, you get free delivery on orders over £29! I will get 7.5 kg sacks, and they are £29.49 from them.

Bubba thrives off Orijen Regional Red.
