Just as with us, our pet’s health also improves when eliminating junk food, chemicals, pesticides and additives from their diet.

Buying Organic guarantees that you have human grade dog food.

Organic Dog Food cannot be labelled as such unless there is a certified amount of organic ingredients in the product and must be certified as such by a third party.

Orijen Dog Food Review - ORIJEN is manufactured by Award winning Champion Pet Foods - Pet Food of the Year Winner


First of all, I realize Orijen is not a certified Organic Dog Food, so this review is just because I have picked Orijen as the overall best dog food pick available today.  It compares just as well with any of the highly recommended Organics that I have reviewed and recommended.


REASONS FOR RECOMMENDING ORIJEN AS my # 1 Pick for BEST DOG FOOD:

Food used in this product is fit for human consumption
No Outsourcing (100% China free)
Biologically appropriate (Orijen mimics the natural diet wild predecessors)
Fresh and Regional Ingredients only
NO Chemical preservatives (BHA, BHT,  or Ethoxyquin )




1. Fresh and Regional Ingredients

Use of fresh regional ingredients, which are delivered daily to the production plant is the number one reason for this pick of best dog food.  The food used in Orijen has been approved “fit for human consumption,” by the Government of Canada.

Orijen uses free range poultry,  wild caught fresh fish delivered daily,  and free range red meats.

Fresh means no processing, never frozen,  and preservative free.


2. Meat and Protein Rich


Orijen uses a “Top Five” Ingredients philosophy, meaning the first 5 ingredients in every kibble is animal based.

This is a high protein, No grain product,  all in a Biologically Appropriate ratio of 80 percent meat, 20 percent fruits and vegetables, and zero grain.(80.20.0).

Orijen is meat concentrated, and protein rich, as by all scientific standards, and evolutionary history, as dog is a domesticated wolf.  Modern dogs of all breeds require a meat based diet mimicking their ancestors.

ORIJEN ADULT DOG:  Top Five = Boneless chicken, chicken meal, boneless salmon, turkey meal, herring meal.

ORIJEN 6 FISH DOG:   Top Five = Boneless salmon, salmon meal, herring meal, boneless herring, boneless walleye

ORIJEN REIONAL RED:  Top Five = Boneless wild boar, deboned lamb, beef lever, deboned pork, lam meal.

Some vets will tell you that high protein diets are harmful for your dog, but they are not educated in animal nutrition during veterinary school.  Multi-national and and marketing companies for low protein, high grain based dog foods, of course want to keep this myth intact.


3. Carbohydrate Limited


Today’s conventional pet foods are lower in protein and high in carbohydrates (40-50%). As carbohydrates are not part of the natural diet, it should come as no surprise that carbohydrates are not required (in any amount) by dogs and cats.

Orijen takes this philosophy seriously, and have won numerous awards.


4. Grain-free


ORIJEN is free of cereal grains, and the carbohydrates are derived from fruits and vegetables.  Carbohydrates are limited to 20% of the overall product, to better match the natural diet.

Grain free for the specific reason that grains are not necessary and used in lower end pet foods as a cheap filler and ultimately causes long term illnesses and weight problems (diabetes, allergies )



5. No Plant Oils


Dogs and cats are meat eaters,  and fats from animals, not plants are essential for their peak health. – Dogs are efficient at digesting animal fats, and as opposed to humans, animal fat does not cause high cholesterol or heart disease, but metabolizes as useful energy, healthy skin and coat, healthy immune function,  and regulates the inflammation processes.


6. Fruits and Vegetables

Wild canids including wolves, coyotes and fox eat fruit throughout the summer which provides vitamins, enzymes, anti
oxidants and phytochemicals.  They also eat grass which cleans the digestive tract.

Conventional dog food features small fraction of fruit and vegetables ( and high cereal grain content), Orijen features 20-25% of
fruit and veggies.

Fruits and vegetables are also produced locally, and used fresh.

Sweet Potatoes from Idaho
Russet Potatoes from Southern Manitoba
Red Delicious Apples from Okanagan Valley, B.C.
Sun Cured Alfalfa from Southern Alberta prairies
Cranberries from Fraser Valley, B.C.
Organic Kelp from Vancouver, B.C.
Green Peas from Saskatchewan
Whole Carrots from B.C. and Alberta
Tomatoes from B.C. and Alberta
Pumpkins from Easter Canada
Turnip Greens from B.C and Saskatchewan
Spinach from B.C


7. Health-promoting Botanicals



Botanicals are part of the natural diet, acting as tonics and builders to help strengthen organs and tissues in specific parts of the body. Botanicals support the digestion process and help the body eliminate toxins by stimulating physiological processes, such as the cleansing of the liver. The daily consumption of botanicals helps the body heal itself naturally, keeping it functioning in a healthy and happy manner


8. Mineral Balance


Orijen uses deboned meat specifically to moderate the calcium and phosphorus and keep the minerals naturally balanced.
Rather than relying on conventional or commodity meat meals as the source of animal protein, ORIJEN uses the highest ratios of fresh, boneless meats that are low in mineral content. Chicken, turkey and fish meals in ORIJEN are custom prepared, especially for Champion Petfoods, to utilize a much lower ratio of bones to flesh, thereby reducing the mineral content and improving the protein quality.

No outsourcing of products, production or imported goods are used.  (Absolutely 100% China free)  Most companies still outsource vitamins from China.



ABOUT TESTING

CHAMPION PET FOODS conducts only those tests in which they allow their own companion dogs and cats to participate.

If it not OK for their dogs and cats, THEN IT’S NOT OK FOR ANY OTHER CATS AND DOGS.

They perform only non-invasive tests, which including palatability (taste). Urine PH and digestibility (the latter through stool analysis only).  These tests are NEVER performed with dogs or cats kept in a laboratory environment (cages.).

    ORGANIC DOG FOOD – Karma | Organix | Natural Balance | Wysong | Newman’s Own | AND MORE

    WHAT IS ORGANIC?


    Organic ingredients are produce and grains that are grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers or GMOs (genetically modified organisms).

    Organically raised animals are never fed the by-products of other animals, and are not kept constantly caged indoors, without access to fresh air, or opportunities to socialize with other animals.

    For Example - **Organic farming promotes the humane treatment of animals. Organically-raised poultry, cattle and other animals are fed a certified organic diet, free of hormones, GMOs (genetically modified organisms) or animal by-products.

    Rather than relying on antibiotics to reduce disease, organic farmers prevent disease by ensuring that animals have a healthy lifestyle, with lots of pasture, comfortable and spacious shelter, and opportunity for natural socialization.**

    Processed organic foods do not contain chemical preservatives or synthetic additives like colourings and waxes.

    Organic farmers use quality compost, cover crops (such as nitrogen-rich alfalfa) and crop rotation to nourish soil naturally, and to allow it to rest and regenerate. Plants grown in healthy soil are better able to feed and protect themselves from pests and disease, which means they won’t require heavy applications of fertilizers and pesticides. The expression, “Feed the soil, not the plant” is a familiar refrain among organic farmers.

    An Organic diet is better for your dog, better for the environment and the companies making organic products are more conscientious and eco-friendly. Organic dog food must be certified to standards as stated above, by a third party agency that is regulated to do so.

    • NO Chemical fertilizers - Chemical fertilizers have been incriminated in serious health problems in animals and are not allowed in organic-certified products.
    • NO Antibiotics or steroids - Long-term daily administration may result in a compromised immune system, muscle wasting, and destruction of the friendly bacteria living in the intestines that aid the digestion of food and assimilation of nutrients.
    • NO Chemical additives or artificial preservatives - Chemical antioxidants, such as ethoxyquin, BHT or BHA, that were designed to extend the shelf life and reduce fat spoilage (rancidity) of pet foods may cause allergic reactions and affect liver and kidney functions
