Don't you think it has more to do with what else they eat? I'd rather feed a high quality high protein kibble but then they get canned food or *real* food too. If it was 100% kibble then yes I'd switch back to the Canidae. In fact, there's truly nothing wrong with the Canidae and I haven't seen a dramatic improvement with the Orijen. I think it's all in my head that I think it's better.
