Re: Dry Dog food whats the best out there ? ................

[QUOTE=james1;1077431]Have to disagree with that popsy.......

"Meat meal" is different from "meat" yes but its not as scary as what some scare stories make out. Firstly Orijen is produced in Canada where the regulations on the production of pet foods far exceeds most other countries. They are so heavily regulated which only a few brands come from Canada and they are all high end because of this. Orijen has won independent reviews as top dog food 2009/10 and independent studies peformed by Universities getting 6 star ratings (top being 6) for its health benefits and igredients content.

In the Adult Orijen: Meat is the top with 2 meal types next then Fish meat
In the Senior Orijen: Meat is again top with 2 meals and then Fish 4th
In the Puppy Orijen: Meat is again top with 2 meals next and Fish 4th again
The two meal products are the only meal products in the entire ingredients listings and contain things like carcases and bones - things that are perfectly healthy to give (marrowbone) but would otherwise go to waste

James, you seem to be really knowledgeable about Orijin foods - are you on a commission?!

Sorry - but I just would never feed a food that is so packed with meal meal - which is not even organic. I mean it's all the toxic stuff going into a powder and then being described as 'meat'. A grain-free dry food means that the ingredient that makes it all stick together is meat meal overload - very hard for our poor pets to digest this..and will leave them open to all sorts of illnesses, skin problems etc.
