Review: Not cheap for a teason - This is easily the best complete food you can get for your dog. After a lot of research this product ticked all the boxes, it’s not cheap but the dogs eat less and are getting so much more protein and nutrition from this food. I have a Malinois and a German shepherd and they are always on the go. They seem to be getting all the right minerals and vitamins they need. Their coats are shiny and the big difference is the toilet is always firm, and they don’t have the runs that other foods give them. Have been using this for nearly a year now and the difference it makes to them is clear to see. No it’s not cheap but in my opinion and experience it’s worth the extra.
Review: Simply the BEST!!! - This product is first class! We feed it to our German Shepherd and she thrives on it. We supplement it with small amounts of chicken, salmon and tuna making a perfect wet and dry diet. It's a bit pricey, but you only get what you pay for. If you want the best for your pet, you won't do any better than this product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant food and great quality
*by M***M on 7 June 2024*

When I got my 2 puppies they came with a bag of a different brand that I continued to buy. I then found out about a website you can go on that tells you the nutritional value of what you are feeding your dogs. I was horrified with the results. Orijen came 2nd in the list in the high 90’s as a percentage so I ordered it to try. My dogs have been on it ever since. They have glossy coats that people always comment on and I am super happy they are being fed nutritional food. It’s brilliant getting it delivered through Amazon as the 11.4kg is heavy to lug to a car. Would highly recommend to anyone
