ORIJEN

Made in Canada

 

Formulated to match your dog’s natural diet, ORIJEN ADULT is loaded with the protein-packed meat ingredients (80%) that Mother Nature intended all dogs to eat — including free-run chicken and turkey, whole eggs and wild-caught fish that are farmed or fished within our region by people we know and trust. Passed ‘fit for human consumption’ ORIJEN’s regional ingredients are delivered FRESH EACH DAY, so they’re never frozen, preservative-free, and bursting with unprocessed, biologically appropriate proteins and fats to nourish your dog completely. Carbohydrate-limited and grain-free to replicate the natural diet, ORIJEN supplies a full 20% of regional fruits, vegetables and botanicals — including kelp, juniper berries and marigold flowers — that are naturally rich in phytonutrients, B-vitamins and essential trace minerals. Made with pride in our award-winning factory here in Alberta, Canada, ORIJEN ADULT keeps your dog healthy, happy and strong.

We believe dog lovers want to know where the ingredients in their dog’s food come from. For this reason we don’t buy the inexpensive, bulk commodity ingredients found in conventional dog foods.   Instead, we use ingredients that are sustainably raised within our region by people we know and trust, approved ' fit for human consumption,' and then delivered to our door FRESH.   And as dogs of all breeds and sizes are carnivores — evolved to thrive on a varied diet rich in meats, with smaller amounts of fruits, vegetables and grasses — ORIJEN ADULT features a Biologically Appropriate (80.20.0) ingredient ratio of 80% meat, 20% fruit and vegetables, and 0% grain — all slow-cooked at low temperatures to retain their natural goodness.   RICH IN MEAT (80%) All dogs are adapted for a diet rich and diverse in meat proteins — not grains and plant proteins. With 80% of poultry, eggs, meat and fish, ORIJEN features high ratios of meat and protein to mirror the natural diet.   A VARIETY OF FRESH MEATS (6) The natural diet is seasonal and diverse, so ORIJEN features 6 fresh meats, including free-run chicken and turkey, chicken liver, and whole eggs, and a superb selection of wild-caught fish — all delivered fresh each day! NO DRY DOG FOOD ON EARTH MATCHES THE QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF ORIJEN’S FRESH MEAT INGREDIENTS. FRUITS and VEGETABLES (20%) In place of high-glycemic grains such as corn, wheat or white rice, ORIJEN features a full complement of regional fruits and vegetables. While providing a limited amount of carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables provide important vitamins, minerals and protector nutrients in a natural and bioavailable form.   GRAIN-FREE (0) ORIJEN is grain-free and carbohydrate-limited to match the natural diet of dogs.   FRESH FISH (2) ORIJEN features freshwater and saltwater fish — harvested responsibly within our region and DELIVERED FRESH, so they’re loaded with natural, non-rendered Omega-3 (DHA, EPA).   All ORIJEN foods are free of plant oils such as sunflower, flax, coconut or canola oils all of which provide Omega-3 in a form that is ineffective for dogs.   Fresh boneless chicken* chicken meal fresh boneless salmon* turkey meal herring meal russet potato peas sweet potato fresh boneless turkey* fresh whole eggs* fresh chicken liver* fresh boneless lake whitefish* fresh boneless walleye* sun-cured alfalfa pea fiber chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols) organic kelp pumpkin chicory root carrots spinach turnip greens apples cranberries blueberries licorice root angelica root fenugreek marigold flowers sweet fennel peppermint leaf chamomile dandelion summer savory rosemary vitamin A vitamin D3 vitamin E niacin thiamine mononitrate riboflavin d-calcium pantothenate pyridoxine folic acid biotin vitamin B12 zinc proteinate iron proteinate manganese proteinate copper proteinate selenium yeast Lactobacillus acidophilus Enterococcus faecium * DELIVERED FRESH, preservative-free and never frozen.
