Absolutely every source I’ve investigated says something completely different about every food I could cry im so lost
Same, I have been using fromm for all three of my pets because i figured premium dog/cat food had no wrong. It's so confusingly overwhelming.
me too. im very stressed and so anxious about my puppy getting ill (since hes a sdit he has to be practically perfect yk)
Try Raw
right!? It’s so confusing I went to two different vets and they told me completely different things I dont know what to believe anymore
ALL KIBBLE IS BAD-ALL REAL WHOLE RAW FOOD IS GOOD...VERY SIMPLE, GO FROM THAT POINT INTO ALL FOODS FOR DOGS CATS AND HUMANS...PERIOD
There should’ve been the overall scores at the end.
You can check the Facebook group out for the full results
Or you could back to 10:46...and do a little arithmetic.
Carna4 I believe won
Carni4 wins by 1 point over orijen without adding the useless bag durability test
14Raine14 not all of us are on fakebook
Wow, the salt divider was very eye opening.
From what I've learned, the first 5 ingredients is about 85% of the food. So, that, in addition to the salt divide is really helpful to me.
It doesn't really taste salty to me. Maybe I'm just used to using tons of salt in my own (human) diet.
It’s the same as human creams and lotions and mixed food and drinks
now look at the label when they say stuff is made with olive oil - LOL
I swear by it now. I saw this video a year ago and to this day I use the salt divider.
I did the math & here's the results:
1st: Carna4 (15 pts)
2nd: Orijen (12 pts)
3rd: Stella & Chewy (7 pts)
4th: Fromm & Zignature (4 pts)
5th: Taste of The Wild (2 pts)
So carna4 is the best one?
@@martinjunior1206 Yes, I would say Carna4 is the absolute best food (besides homemade) you can get for your cat/dog. However I looked at several places & found the only place you can get it is off their website which means it's expensive. If you can't afford that I would get the next best thing. Of course consult your vet before switching foods.
@@TheEmodarkangel19
Yea I'll try that. Maybe this time he won't eat the cat food if I give that to him
@@martinjunior1206 Ziwi Peak is also up there!
Thank you 😊
I'm going insane with all these reviews. I'm more confused then ever
Totally
all kibble is bad-that makes it very simple-raw frozen is the way to go
In summary: kibble is crap. convenience comes at a big price.
my dog got very sick from eating raw food, it costed me 170 dollar vet bill.
Jenny rodriguez-fito that’s exactly why I wouldn’t feed a dog raw. As a treat it’s ok.
As someone who works at a pet food store in Nova Scotia, it’s awesome to see someone taking steps locally to educate people on pet food. Definitely sending this to my coworkers
Hello friend 😊
The salt divider has me shook
Eh. I when I buy a bag of kibble I am not expecting a bag of blueberries or cranberries and would be more shook if that was a major ingredient.
Still the salt divider is a neat trick.
Shaken
@@yournamehere3071 no. It's "shook". It's slang for shaken. He's using it 100% correct.
K.C. Siebert
Really? Good to know. Thanx
@@KCSiebert It's actually slang for shocked
Thank you for uploading this. One of the best 22 min videos I’ve seen
I feel like this video has truly helped me. Sure I'm still not 100% confident, however, I have a better chance of catching something wrong with my dogs food, than before! However, packaging test was not important to me as transfer food into an air tight container once opened. So less or lighter packaging is best for me! ❤️ Thanks!!
Wow, the "salt divider" test is a game changer.
Hello friend 👋
AMAZING WORK. SO ENLIGHTENED NOW!!! Standing ovation and a big THANK YOU!!! PS: No better way to endorse & validate your video using the 3 ladies at the end! So so so thankful I saw this video. My dog King is going to be happy!!
I love how you're talking about the vitamin mixes! Absolutely correct my friend. (I work in a vitamin premix mill)
I love Carna4!! I put some bone broth, blueberries, and fish oil over it, and some of it I feed in his puzzle toys. HE LOVES IT!! I also rotate in a lot of raw as well :)
too bad it's like 150 a bag
@@julesrandolph7910 You feed 20% less than you would regular kibble. It is totally worth it. It resolved my dog's itchy skin and coat. I use it as part of a rotation. I always have some on hand.
The reason it cost a lot is because it's actual food without fillers. Other dog foods are mostly filler and food that has been cheapened hurting its nutritional value
I have tried Carna4 and for the price. In my opinion. You shouldn't have to add anything as a topper. To be honest. My dog hates it. Eats everthing around that food. So I wasted $150. I can't even drown in liver topper. To get her to eat it.
From a Puppy I have fed her Origen. She eats it. Ya some days I add toppers. Still a lot cheaper than Carna4.
Recently I tried Stella and Chewy's Raw Blend. My dog actally bumps her nose on the bag. To tell me she's hungry. I put the food in the bowl, no toppers. She inhales it.
So we can try and stuff what we want. Down our animals throats. But if they won't eat it plain. Whats the point in buying it?
So in short. I'll never buy Carna4 again. Cause my dog doesn't like it.
Origen, I would buy for sure. My dog likes it. I have a very health and trim dog, because of their food.
Stella and Chewy's Raw Blend? My dog loves it.
Maybe I mix it, with the 1/2 bag of Carna4 I'm stuck with. Hopefully she'll eat it.
I'd love to see dog food reviews. Maybe show dogs eating the products. That they are boasting about. Cause to me, that's the most important, imho.
Funny fact.
Every time I drive by the Origen factory. When I'm 1/4 mile away. My girl has her upper body out the truck window. Nose in the air and smiling.
Carna4 is restoring my dogs fur with soft fur and his ears no longer have gunk in them, my dogs microbiome is waaaaaay better!!! Carna4 all the way I hope thry never cheapen it!!! Bravo carna4 👏 bravo as long as yoi never cheapen this and don't sell out you have earned a very picky customer willing to pay premium for premium
Oh my! Your effort and research was brilliant! This is the information every dog lover needs to know! Thank you so much!
I feel even better now for choosing Carna4 over a year ago for my Westie! Thanks 👍🏼
Hello friend 👋
Would love to see an update on this for 2024. So many companies have been bought since this video, and recipes have changed for some.
Here’s the update; all kibble is trash and if it isn’t it will soon be trash so you’re better off going raw or cooking for your dog.
@flankman9385 farmina is actually the best in dry kibbles in my opinion lol and raw isn't for everyone but yes homemade cooked food is the best so I would suggest going full cooked diet and n&d farmina as filler for your dog
Orijen has since been bought out and now is using synthetics
Rodney, today I made my dog the beef recipe that you and Dr. Becker made on TH-cam. I cooked it since it was the first time and mixed it with her remaining kibble to ease her into it. Needless to say, she ate every bit of the real food and left every piece of the kibble. She has spoken. There's my answer. Thanks for all you do.
She will be even happier if you let her eat it raw :-)
Hello friend 👋
Thank you for teaching me the salt divider test! Awesome video. By the way, 8:52, you got me. I'm laughin'.
What a fantastic review. Actual witty humor that takes second place to great content that matters to us and our pets.
I love all the great tests you have done to educate pet parents. It is clear that our dogs deserve more attention in regards of their diet! Now I understand it way better!! Thank you so much.
Prior to getting my rescue, I made the decision to feed him Freeze Dried Raw dog food, but I'm weaning him off of the dry kibble he was eating. I can't thank you enough for doing this video. I already had a bag of Orijen, but in the future, if I choose a dry kibble it will likely be Carna4.
When we brought home a tiny 12 week old puppy a few years ago she refused to eat any commercial pet “food.” I went searching online for information on pet food. The pet food corporations provide zero information about where they source their ingredients or how those ingredients are processed. I did finally find Susan’s website and found some other interesting sites.
People should take note that over the past 50 years over 60% of industry in the US has changed from being owned by individual companies to being owned by mega corporations that own multiple entities of various types of industries. These huge corporations have a huge amount of influence on just about every aspect of our lives. Most importantly, they have been able to “buy” influence in all the major political parties as well as so many other influential entities. Money IS power. It is these “special interests” who pay the majority of the expenses for major political campaigns. Illegal? No. We have laws about campaign finance contributions but then there are also the “super pacs” that can be formed that are not effected by those laws. It’s a huge hoax on the American people. We have the appearance of fair elections but the fact it that these “special interests” have been telling us who we get to vote for over the past several decades. Government agencies have gotten so huge and out of control that it is now the agencies that make the rules rather than the elected officials that supposedly protect the people. The FDA is a major offender. It is the billion dollar pet FEED industry that tells the FDA what ingredients they will approve and how processing will take place. Pet food is actually classified as feed and you better know that the livestock that you consume is nothing like the livestock that Americans consumed 50 years ago. They are now confined in filthy buildings making antibiotics, hormones, and other “medications” necessary on a regular basis. Steroids are used to bulk up the animals and slow down certain diseases. Genetically modified grains (that are banned in most other civilized countries) are fed to the livestock instead of the grass that animals once consumed NATURALLY. All these chemicals and “medications” stay in the flesh of the livestock and we and our pets consume it. You will not find a wild animal with cancer or heart disease unless it has some source of human or pet feed. If your pet itches a lot and you cannot find the source....many of the antibiotics used on livestock cause allergic reactions in dogs. Those antibiotics, along with many of the other dangerous medications, remain in the flesh of the livestock and can effect those who consume it. The commercial “food” that pet owners feed their pets have had the natural nutritional value cooked out of it. But even before that these corporations use the lowest quality ingredients. Yes, those blueberries may be in there but those are the berries that were squashed and rotting and the human food companies could not salvage. The “meat” is actually the lowest quality parts of the animal that has sat long enough to be foul. Animals that died before slaughter and diseased animals are just a couple of the horrid things approved by the FDA for pet “feed.” Other low grade organic materials are also approved. This is just one of the reasons that the ingredients must be cooked at such high temperatures. There are high quantities of harmful bacteria in those ingredients. The scam on the American people and their pets goes on and on. If you took the time to read actual proven facts on Susan’s website: truthaboutpetfood.com you would hardly believe your eyes. There are other sites available as well but Susan has taken the time to attend the actual pet food association meetings with the FDA and has the firsthand information.
I began cooking food for our little puppy. It turned out she knew what was best for her because that kibble that we had tried to feed her was garbage even though it was sold as a “high quality” pet food.
The pet food industry’s number one concern is the bottom line that the board of directors see. They want “feed” that can be easily transported and that can sit on a shelf in a storehouse and in the store for months and even years.
Most of those synthetic vitamins and minerals used to bump up the nutritional value of this over processed garbage are processed in China. Because vitamins and minerals are not considered actual food that fact does not have to be disclosed. Most human supplements sold in the US are the same deal. Processed in China. China has the lowest paid labor force in the world (with India and other third world countries not far behind) and can under bid any western service. Much of the frozen fish sold in the US is now processed by China out on barges way out in the ocean. (Think about the human rights disaster that is) China was able to under bid and put out of business a large percentage of American fish processing plants.
Our pets, just like our people, are being slowly poisoned by these huge corporations that now control the food supply. You will not hear about this in the corporate owned media which is also controlled by these “powers that be.” Corporations that own pet food companies also own multiple other types of businesses. The American people walk around in an almost totally controlled environment. It is an environment made and controlled by those at the top of the corporate ladder.
taste of the wild is a high quality dog food but states nowhere the welfare of their meat last time I checked so likely uses factory farmed chicken. You will find wild animals with cancer and heart disease but due to natural selection there isn't that many. I live in the uk not usa but we have pretty decent pet foods here and around europe. Have orijen/acana worked for you? They are the only good brand I know thats in the us, here we got yarrah, lilys kitchen, yora and bozita. www.ethicalconsumer.org/food-drink/shopping-guide/dog-food talks over issues, I don't want to feed a vegan/vegetarian diet since I eat meat and I find thats a little unfair even though its more ethical.

Ellie L. Thank You. All the info we need are out there,but people are too lazy or just give a damn. MAKE YOUR OWN DOG FOOD FHS! Slowly poisoning isn't love. Dogs can easily live 18 years and up if not given that filth. And yeah,heck, even v e g a n is so much better( I say the best) for both human and dogs.
Come at me,angry know-it-all's who feed their dogs sh..t and are fine with a 6- 8 year life span for their best friends.
Totally agree with you. Since one of my babies get sick this year with kidney failure, I have read and research all I can about dry dog food. And I was shocked by what I've found! Every single thing you said is truth and is so painful to me realize that I have been poisoning and harming my beloved dogs with this shitty products. And I'm so angry at the vets I've gone all this years because the primary interest on those mf is to sell their products and give a dam about the health and life of all the animals they attend. The animal industry, since schedule of the universities until a bag of kibble, almost everything corrupt and owned by the big corporations.
Thank you for breaking this all down. I actually learned a lot from this video that I'll now use to educate friends & family!! My miniature dachshund was on Fromm as a puppy, but he stopped eating it & that's when I made the switch to Orijen. So glad I did!! The expensive dog food is very worth it, especially for a smaller dog like him!
Hello friend 👋
I saw this video for the first time a few days ago, and I'm glad I did. My pup has been on Zignature dog food for a few years now and started off with the Salmon formula, and now she's on Kangaroo. It seems to me the formula has changed, because she's starting to scratch more and now has redness on her belly and under her arms and growing area. I don't give her any treats except for blue berries and her Joint treats from Glyde that contains shell fish. I'm taking her off Glyde to see if the shell fish is the problem and creating a yeast infection. All the vets want to do is give her pills that don't work like Apoquel. All Apoquel does is help stop the scratching, not fix the problem.
I know this video is form 2019 and you mention that Orijen only has one added synthetic, (Zink). I'm looking for a new food for my pup, and don't have the time to make homemade food and considering Orijen. After further looking at their ingredients list, the list of synthetics is quite large compared to what you are claiming. Has this changed from when you first did this review? because this is a list of additives on the packaging from there original formula.
, zinc proteinate, mixed tocopherols (preservative), vitamin E supplement, thiamine mononitrate, calcium pantothenate, copper proteinate, dried chicory root, turmeric, sarsaparilla root, althea root, rosehips, juniper berries, citric acid (preservative), rosemary extract, dried Lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation product, dried Bifidobacterium animalis fermentation product, dried Lactobacillus casei fermentation product.
I would like to see an updated video on these brands. Carna4 seems great, but very pricey for your average person.
Keep up the good work!
The quality of the video is incredible for a “small” channel, very informative.
Thank you for encouraging me to continue feeding homemade (easily in the slow cooker) and raw from a local company who uses local, holistic supplies only.
Hello friend 👋
The salt divide and hill's synthetics fatalities are good to know!!! Glad I switched to Orijen
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS REVIEW!! Rachel Fusaro recommended you and I'm so glad she did 💖, we are about to get our first puppy in a few weeks and we have spenT HOURS on line researching and trying to learn as much as we can, your videos are fun and educational - LOVE THEM.
I want to learn more about raw food and again I can't say how glad I am to have found your Channel..KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! 🦾
Hello friend 😊
Love this channel me and my partner are getting a dog in the new year 🐶 and wanted to find some helpful videos. Knowledge is power
3:55 my house smells absolutely terrible...haha, got a good laugh from that one.
LOVE this! Thank you! P.S. I love you panel of experts & YOU are hilarious!
Wow, that was awesome. Thank you for informing us. I learned about the salt divider last year when my dog came up with a tumor. I suppose my weakness is making sure there are few synthetic vitamins.
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen ever. The editing is top notch.
Hello friend 👋
I'm from Wisconsin and work for a pet store and I had the chance to visit the Stella and Chewey plant and let me tell you they are serious about their pet nutrition! They are so careful with their products they scan every package of food for metal contamination, they clean their machines daily, and they will tell you exactly where their ingredients come from if you ask! I highly recommend them if you're not trying to go the crazy expensive route! I will also add that Fromm has no form of customer care and used to have extremely shady business practices, they are working on it but don't be fooled!
Thanks for this information! I used to feed my dog and cat Fromm and it was NOT worth the price in my opinion. Both of my pets gained a lot of weight on it. even if I cut their portions very small. And then they’d feel hungry all the time because the portions were so small! Maybe if you have an underweight animal I’d recommend it lol. They’ve eaten all kinds of different fresh food, canned, and kibble and nothing made them pack on the pounds like Fromm.
It is encouraging to see some innovative dog foods coming out of Wi. :)
Can you tell me if-royal canine is good I have a five month old Shepard mix
@Lisa P I have a 5 month old Shepherd mix what can I feed him I need your advice
@Lisa P thank you so much you are appreciated 🙏
Thank you so much for this! This seals the deal on this brand that I already researched for my Boston PUP!!!!!!!!
I’m on the fist minute of your video and I love it ! Thank you 😊
Great video!! Love you guys!! I would love to see an OPEN FARM review next
THANK YOU so much for clarifying which foods were THE best for my dogs. It always seemed like a mystery. Glad to know Orijen is the real deal. Aweseome. Please make more videos going in depth on the REAL nutrition of dog food and dog food brands. :) Subscribed.
Hello friend 👋
wow finally some honesty!!!!! thank you soo much
Thank you for making this video. It is awesome!! Just one question on Carna4. What is the source of zinc in the duck's formula (shown in this video)? I have been home cooking for my dog and I have learned that it is almost impossible to have enough zinc in a recipe unless I..
1) use beef as the main source of protein or
2) add oyster or
3) add zinc supplement.
It makes sense to me that the Orijen one has zinc supplement added but it surprises me that the Carna4 one doesn't. Am I missing something here?
You put a ton of work into this video! Thank you for all your effort, research and discoveries🤘
Hello friend 👋
I can't thank you enough! I saw the documentary Pet Fooled last year and I've been looking for a new food for cat ever since.
Try to feed raw food for your cats (Small Batch, Northwest Naturals, Primal). Dry food is the worst diet a kitty can be on. :(
Enjoyed this video a lot! Thank you for making and sharing🤩
💯 i appreciate rhis so much bro. I was feeding my old dog blue bufffalo and i looked into like 3 of these brands prior to this video and im leaning toward orijen for my mini doxie pups
Or carna4 lololol
Finally!! Finding a dog food is so hard to find and this helps debunk a lot of marketing scams!! I've never even heard of the salt divider.... thank you.
Hello friend 👋
These videos are so well made, very entertaining, and extremely informative! Raw feeder here (mainly due to your videos by the way), and I really appreciate the time you put into these videos...Keep up the great work! (My dog thanks you as well) :)
I feed my dog Orijen now. But I think I’m going to start feeding raw. Just tired of all the bs smoke and mirrors with this dog food. Most likely cheaper too.
The salt test was very informative looked at the kibble I been giving my boys and was half way down the list. I always add about 1 ice cream sized scoop of veggies with either ground turkey our chicken and rice to each bowl of 1 cup kibble. I spend 90 bucks a month on kibble need to see how I can go back to making the food myself again, so I know whats in it.
Hahaha I liked when you pushed the kibble off the table and LOL @8:55
And You bought those Betty Crocker Chip Bag Closer things from that Dollarama in the background, eh?
Rachel fusaro sent me 😊😊 thank you for the review!
excellent vid! I would add that Fromm's does not use any ingredients from China- so it deserve a higher ranking than Into the Wild and Zignature. Carna4 is certainly superior to Fromms, but most people I know could never even begin to be able to afford $46 for 6 lbs of food.
Thank you. I only feed Carna4 now. My puppy was always puking and not really interested in kibble. After SLOWLY switching to Carna4. My dog now eats regularly and reallly enjoys her food. And have not puked in a long time.
Thank you for this video. It has helped me to finally have an idea what food is best for my pets! I don't mind spending the money for good food, but is is incredibly difficult to be educated as to what, why, which and how much. You answered all the "W's" for me!
K.C. Hartman Orijen and Carna4 are best besides raw... but Carna4 is best.
Thank you, it has concerned me that so many pets are dying less than their ideal age. Eye opening review, never thought much about the packaging or the extras added other than first ingredients was meat.
Thanks for the info. Really learned something new today. There're things I didn't know and really appreciated for pointing them out.
I've gone through 3 of the dry food on your list Formm, taste of the wild and orijin. Apart from Orijin, my dog really didn't like the rest of them. I'm buying her Aatu for a while and she seems to be ok with them. Would be great if you do a review on them.
Hello friend 👋
@@user-nc4cx4gw2z Hi 👋
Thank you so much I love how informative your videos are👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
So Origen and carna wins !
Unfortunately Orijen opened branches in the US, so I wouldn't by them anymore.
Doctor Corgi why u would not buy anymore when they opened a branches in the US?
Well they are better on the scale of convenience extruded foods. But there are still ingredients that a dog in the wild would not consume.
@@Allen_Angelo_Serrano Also they are listed as one of the top dog foods to cause DCM (sudden heart failure) in dogs.
thegiantpaperpanda True. That included Zignature, Taste of the Wild, and Fromm.
Already using Orijens for my 2 chihuahuas and Cavapoo! Yeah!!!
Well i will be looking for better dog food for my Ruby. We recently started the Gentle Giants dog food and for the most part I think its a decent dog food. It does not have corn or wheat in the top ingredients.
My neighbor swears by Zignatures but guess you proved him wrong. Hope you’ll add more brands in the future like Kibbles from Young Again. Great content!
I love your videos, please keep posting!!!
Thanks for the salt divider test. It’s very eye opening.
Btw, would you pls review Instict? Thank you
Hello friend 😊
That salt divider is good info. Thanks
Awesome info! I'm picking up a puppy in 8 weeks and I really needed this.
Thanks you so much for making this video. It has helped me learn a lot about what food I should get my dog.
What I would love to see is the best of the low price brands!! I feed my dog what I can afford, mostly high end brands, but when money gets tight and I can't shell out 50 for a bag I would love to know what is good in the lower price range. I do supplement her food with raw human food, and after your video I'll be making sure she gets some raw veggies and fruit in her dinner bowel.
Victor is good. ProPac Ultimates is ok as well.
I use Rachael Ray Nutrish Dish, Dogs love it and the ingredients are pretty solid. $26 for a 14lb bag I believe Last 2 30lb dogs about 2 weeks. Get it at wal-mart.
Raw is actually cheaper. But with a premium food your dog should actually eat less.
@@gsdmomb530
Yes. We feed our dog premium and he does eat less. This is so true.
Tractor Supply’s store brand 4Health is good.
Ever since I’ve began feeding my pups ( 4 years ago) , chicken, gizzards, pork, also, I stem them in water , & a Lytle virgin coconut oil, my dogs have been and looking so good, healthier pups , big dif.
You are amazing Rodney and your information is priceless!:-) thank you for all you do!!
Hello friend 👋
Loved the video. We to your channel. Keep up the work! I’m always gonna keep an eye out on the salt and synthetic vitamins
carna4 seems good, but some of their ingredients are things that aren't so great for dogs (lentils, peas, potato starch). still, i'm intrigued and want to know more... time to do my own research on it XD
Just curious...why did you not use the grain free Fromm Five Star?
Awesome video great production please keep up the good job!!!!!!!!
Thanks 🙏
Thank you Rodney, carna4 is not a popular choice where I live but since trying it I'm a big believer in it
Your reviews and grading system should also include the number of recalls. Stella and chewy has had numerous recalls. I believe taste of wild has also.
I will never use Facebook, Instagram or Tweet something, so where else do you provide this information? I do however use TH-cam.
I'm so happy to see that orijen ranked so highly, we just swapped our two kitties onto them after we suspected one of them had developed a poultry allergy. (Which sadly wasn't the case and we are still working on finding the cause) but it is nice to know we are feeding our babies a truly good food that isnt trying to pull the wool over our eyes
Unfortunately Orijen opened up some branches in the U.S., so...
Also was acquired by Mars. Watch future ingredient labels!!
Thanks for all the great insight and entertaining video Rodney!
Wow. Carna4 is $60 for 2.2 lbs. Really. It’s no wonder why we feed our dogs affordable kibble. ! For my 100 lbs dogs I can’t afford that or raw!!! This is Reality and we do the best we can and hope for the best
Honestly you are better off feeding from the big brands that can hire veterinary nutritionists and run food trials. Many of these boutique brands play heavily on fear-based and inaccurate ideology of pet nutrition. When push comes to shove- the big five dogs are not dying of DCM.
if you order a big box of Honest Kitchen from amazon & buy a fat pack of Bonelss skinless chicken at the store .... You would be feeding a much higher ,completely safe heathy food to your dogs. .... Ive figured out the math after 15 years buying cans & bags of dog food ........ Knowing my dog is eatinG Safe healthy food is more important than The Convenicence of opening a can or bag & dumping some down for him. Honest Kitchen, Mix it up with warm water stir, Cook up some plain meat, chop it up & dump it in. Put several servings in a ziplok bad so thru the week just take one out a few hours early or that morning or hatever so it isnt frozen.
Then you can’t afford the dog
@@elizabethziegler9841 Trading DCM for cancer isn't a good solution either.
The YoPancake Show well stop slurping down big macs . The money saved there can be used to feed your dog and yourself a healthy meal.
Sadly, Orijen’s formula has changed, and seemingly not for the better. A lot of the goodness is now listed behind salt. Further, they no longer claim 15% fruits and vegetables on the label, presumably because they can’t.. nearly all fruits and vegetables are now listed behind salt, leaving me to question the complete nutritional value of this product.
The Orijen puppy formula ingredient list as of February 2022 is now as follows:
Chicken, turkey, turkey giblets (liver, heart, gizzard), flounder, whole mackerel, eggs, chicken liver, whole herring, dehydrated chicken, dehydrated turkey, dehydrated mackerel, dehydrated chicken liver, dehydrated egg, whole red lentils, whole pinto beans, whole peas, chicken fat, lentil fiber, pollock oil, whole green lentils, whole navy beans, natural chicken flavor, whole chickpeas, pea starch, chicken heart, SALT,
whole pumpkin, whole butternut squash, collard greens, whole pears, whole apples, whole cranberries, dried kelp, zinc proteinate, mixed tocopherols (preservative), thiamine mononitrate, calcium pantothenate, vitamin E supplement, copper proteinate, dried chicory root, turmeric, sarsaparilla root, althea root, rosehips, juniper berries, citric acid (preservative), rosemary extract, dried Lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation product, dried Bifidobacterium animalis fermentation product, dried Lactobacillus casei fermentation product.
As you can see, it’s still a great kibble for protein. In my case, I may elect to continue with Orijen and supplement with raw fruits and veggies.
It would be interesting to see a comparison video of the old formula to to new.

Oooh thanks for making this video. I have a four month husky pup and have been driving myself crazy about which brand to feed her. Now I know. Thanks!
I have a Husky too. Look into Visionary Pet. It's raw freeze-dry and it's not horribly expensive. They often have discounts .
Tnxs for your Time to do such a helpful review! Keep it up!
The TH-camr is like “the best dog food? Well hire a chef please”
That moment you want to eat the kibble since it smells so good

Incredibly useful info. Most appreciate your efforts.
Would love a review of Red Leaf brand. Switched my dog over recently and she loves it. Currently using the Angus beef with sweet potato and pumpkin.
I can’t for the life of me understand why an earth anyone would thumbs down a video like this 🤷♀️ it’s valuable information like what’s to dislike 😒
I fed my dog a high quality kibble starting at the age of 7 years old. He lived to be 16 years old. I began incorporating raw food the last two years and he thrived. I lost him to Cushing’a Disease 3 years after raw feeding. I wish I would have started sooner.
Jillian Torres hi! What kibble did you feed him?
George .S. I fed him Go! Dog Food. It is Canadian.
Started what sooner?
-ˏˋ V A I S H N A V I ˎˊ- raw food.
may i know what kind of breed he was?
I would love you to review K9 Naturals and Ziwi Peak, I feed raw completes and veggies and fruit but occasionally these too
Thanks for this review. Awesome and insightful for a pet owner.
My dog did really well on Castor and Pollux Organix before I fed raw
How is it going with the raw diet? And where do you get the meat from? ☺️
My dog stopped eating when I went raw😩and I did it for a few months.
I went and got Orijen so far so good
@@MaximillianandRubyGrace Interesting maybe your dog got used to the food it ate before. But if you want a good kibble it is a Swedish one named "magnussons" it is all Swedish ingredients and it is baked in oven. But If you don't live in Sweden it is difficult to find it I think.
When you’re out there looking for dog food, the easiest way is to look at the ingredient list. Look for a minimum of 28% raw-protein and a minimum of 17% raw-fat. And of course the smaller the additives list is the better. This means that the less additives the better quality the main source of foods was.
Hello friend 👋
I worked at vet office. The reason Hills is sold there is they feed your animals / sick or boarded / this food is not kickbacks...it is because they sell 50 lb bags TO the vet and employees for $5.00 each( does not come in same (packaging/ looking )bags though. Since employees usually have pets themselves, some 10-15 pets at home, it is their perks. I would order everybody their bags- many- (food everywhere!!) ( some resold for profit) and when truck got there would stash them in employees car asap. This is why they push this crap...keep your pets sick, you keep coming back.
WOW
Thanks so much for showing me the truth I was a Stella but seeing the end I am switching to the best rated for the vitamins
Just wondering if giving digestive enzymes might help to digest the food up better?
Yeah
I would love to see a review and comparison on kibble vs fresh cooked food such as open farm or home made.
Hello friend 😊
Y'all are doing and incredible job, i change my dog diet of just kibbles for homemade food and just 1/5 of kibbles per meal after watching the documentary "PET FOOLED "
My dog loves Lettuce combine with homecook rice so much!
Incredible and valuable info. Thank you so much for this! Changing to Orijen today!
@Johnnie Joey Caraballo
I switched to Orijen 2 weeks ago and noticed a change in my dog's coat and running speed. Did you stay with Orijen?
Orijen and Carna4 on top!
I had to give this video a like just on presentation alone. Outstanding presentation.
