Rich in meat & protein:

Orijen Adult is made with a full 80% of meat from free-run chicken and turkey, fresh whole eggs and wild-caught fish. These high meat inclusions produce a Biologically Appropriate protein level of 38%, which replicates the natural diet and nourishes your dog according to his anatomical adaptation to meat protein.

Rich in animal fat:

Animal fats and oils are essential for the peak health of all dogs ®®® that's why Orijen is free of plant oils and only features fats of premium animal source. Instead of the highly-processed rendered fats used by conventional pet food makers, over 90% of the fats in Orijen occur naturally from high inclusions of fresh chicken, turkey, fish and egg.

DHA & EPA from fresh fish:

Fresh fish is a perfect source of highly digestible and Biologically Appropriate DHA and EPA Omega-3 fatty acids. Essential for your dog's immune and nervous systems, as well as a glowing skin and hair coat, these richly nourishing fatty acids are not available from plant oils such as flax, coconut or sunflower.

Grain-freeE & carbohydrate limited:

Your dog's natural diet contains very few, if any, grains or carbohydrates. That's why Biologically Appropriate Oorijen is grain-free and contains less than half the carbohydrates found in conventional dog foods.

Limited Calcium & phosphorus:

The potential oversupply of calcium and phosphorus in high-protein dog foods is cause for concern. High inclusions of chicken meal, fish meal or turkey meal used to increase protein levels also provide a rich source of minerals and push calcium and phosphorus levels to the upper allowable limits of, respectively, 2.5% and 1.6%.

Glucosamine & chondroitin:

Orijen's high ratios of fresh poultry, meats and fish provide a rich source of glucosamine and chondroitin, which is derived naturally from the fresh meat ingredients ®®® without adding synthetic ingredients to the formula.

Veterinarian selected Botanicals:

Providing the element of your dog's natural diet that he craves when foraging for grasses and weeds, Orijen's veterinarian-selected botanicals help support your dog's metabolism, strengthen his organs, and serve as cleansers to rid his body of toxins.
