Product Description
Made with the highest inclusions of FRESH chicken, turkey, whole eggs and wild-caught whitefish, ORIJEN is bursting with the protein packed, human grade meats (minimum 80%) your puppy needs and none of the grains or carbohydrates that are inappropriate for your puppy.
Instead of cereal grains, ORIJEN contains a full compliment of regional fruits and vegetables including sweet and russet potatoes, black currents and sunflower from prairie farms, apples and cranberries from interior orchard’s, and sea vegetables harvested from the pacific tidal range.
Fresh lake whitefish and Chinook salmon provide are a superb source of unrendered essential fatty acids (including DHA and EPA) that nutritionally support the development of cell membranes and immune systems, as well as a vibrant skin and hair coat, your puppy’s outer symbol of health and vitality.
Bridging the gap between good nutrition and peak health are psyllium, dandelion root, sweet fennel and peppermint leaf. All of which replicate the natural diet to nourish and tone the digestive tract and strengthen the liver.
Biologically Appropriate ORIJEN PUPPY naturally nourishes puppies of all breeds and sizes. This high-protein, low-carbohydrate puppy food mirrors the original canine diet and naturally satiates appetite - so expect to feed less than you would of conventional pet foods.
As each puppy is different, feeding requirements will vary with size, environment, age and activity. Feed twice daily and always keep fresh, clean water available.
