Our take on Orijen

Written by us, from the labels. Never written, reviewed or paid for by the brand.

Orijen has the narrowest spread of any brand we hold: 1 points, from 87 to 88, across 7 rated foods. The average is 88/100 (Very good), ranking 22 of 304.

That is as close to "every bag is the same standard" as this market gets. There is no value line, no supermarket variant, no cheaper sibling wearing the badge - one formulation philosophy, applied throughout.

The recipes are built on very high named-meat content with minimal plant bulk, and everything is declared with percentages rather than categories. Orijen Adult tops the range at 88/100, but the gap to the bottom is almost nothing.

Cost is premium at about £1.52 a day for the cheapest, and Orijen does not discount its way down.

If you want to stop thinking about dog food entirely, this is the brand that makes that possible. You are paying for that consistency as much as for the ingredients.

      My dog has been eating this for over a year and enjoys it, although the price has gone up recently.
