ORIJENLarge Breed Adult 23.5LB

As you may know cane corsos are quite the picky eaters! Whenever we go to the vet or visit the pet stores, even the holistic/organic concept local stores, they always offer treats. My pup is the one who turns his nose away, he can care less as he is not interested. So I have to say with him being so picky, Orijen to him IS the better choice!I love the fact that I can rotate his food without have to worry about upsetting his stomach. He has so far enjoyed the puppy -grain free, tundra, six fish, and regional red varieties. All of which he has truly enjoyed! The kibble is pretty decent in size, with the puppy kibble being a bit smaller than the others. We keep the kibble stored in a vault for freshness and longevity. We have not had any allergic reactions, or experienced any issues with digestive upset. He isn’t scratching, scooting, or licking himself crazy. His coat remains healthy-looking and shiny, with little to no shedding.Orijen also makes freeze dried treats which we use for training in combination with his kibble ( both work great and keep him engaged). Overall a great brand of kibble that offers a variety of healthy options to keep in rotation for the high protein diet!10/10, Cane Corso approved and recommended!

My husky/lab 60 pound lab mix loves this food. I noticed that he seemed to scatch a bit and thought that it might have been due to chicken allergy which apparently is not that uncommon. So I tried a bag of this and the scratching stopped. While it's not cheap I can understand why it cost what it does due to the ingredient list. I love the fact that it's not only one major product like beef or chicken but that it has various other ingredients like fish and lamb to create a more balanced diet for my dog.

>.. Orijen is possibly the most respected dry dog food available to the average US consumer. So much so, that there have been reports of bags of dog food looking like these being imported from Asia. [Orijen is only in North America] Having a responsible source for this food is important to my dogs.>.. Is this inexpensive? NO. it runs about $4.00 per pound at the time I write this. I know, I was shocked too, unless you compare ingredients in this food with other pet food offered. Primary ingredients are wild meats, fish, poultry. Not by-products, but meat suitable to be offered to human consumers. These meats are then processed enough to get down to weight and size needed. Then they are mixed with grasses and other plant foods (20-25%) as mimicked in natural dog eating habits. with the primary (80%) of the kibble being meat - human eatable meat [not rejected for human consumption] then processed. Now, the cost is seen by me as reasonable.>.. This all started when I found my dogs ignoring their daily chow. They would nibble at the kibble and lick the canned food, but were not interested in really eating it. I bought more expensive - "premium" dog food and the same result, not really interested. Then I went to "super premium" commercial dog food, same result, partially interested, but not eager eaters. So I researched dog food and stumbled on two items of interest. 1. Orijen Dog Foods. and 2. raw diets for dogs.>.. What my research had found was that most of my dog's dry and canned foods were starchy carbohydrates and not protein centered. And even the "no grain" dog foods were filled with potatoes, or other starchy foods (cassava was the latest starch I saw) which dogs have no real ability to digest. These commercial dog foods were trying to emulate the Standard American Diet, not the foods that carnivores eat in the wild.>.. Carnivores (meat eaters) usually consume a fair amount of meat and some other stuff (like fur, bones, etc.) from eating their prey straight from the kill. Orijen does it's best to replicate this balance in their product, thus keeping the cost for them, and the price for us, at an higher than normal level. But the QUALITY is much HIGHER than most commercial, premium and super-premium pet foods. My dogs are very eager eaters, now. And I have used the kibble, by itself, and a training treat for them as well. They love it!>.. Because foods that are vacuum sealed often lose their goodness if not maintained under vacuum, I open the bag, and then fill 1 quart vacuum bags with the food, and reseal the extra food under vacuum. This can take some time, effort and cost, but if I am paying a premium price, I ought to maintain it as best I can. I usually get about 15 vacuumed sealed bags out of a 25 pound bag, and I open one only when I need to get more dry dog food. The rest are stored, vacuum sealed, out of the sunlight, and at a cool temperature until needed. My primary use of the Orijen is to supplement the raw food diet I prepare for my dogs. I feed each of them 1 pound raw food, and then add the Orijen to supplement to the Calorie level my Veterinarian has suggested.>.. I might be a bit obsessed about my dogs food, but it is the most common and best way to see that I contribute to their ongoing good health.

Love this dog food. So do my two boys. The food despite being EXPENSIVE, is in my opinion, the best dog food on the market. I like to always feed fish based food, it just seems to be the only food that doesn't have chicken meal in it, I found this about a year ago and have been feeding it to my boys ever since thier coats look amazing and they are lean and healthy 65lbs dogs. At first is was like "holy crap" the amount I'd have to feed them but I only have to give them a little more than 2 cups each daily! So I can get a large bag to last about 2ish weeks. Our pets are our family i think they should eat good and this food does not disappoint. I get compliments all the time on how beautiful they look. If your unsure i hope this helps you decide.
