If you really want to change food, I wouldn't rule out Orijen because you think it will make him gain weight. He's a puppy. He's supposed to gain weight. You'll be feeding less Orijen than Canidae because it's more dense & there's more nutritional value packed into each little kibble. The difference between Orijen & Acana is that Orijen is 80% meat-20% veggies...Acana is 60/40. The protein levels are higher in Orijen. Acana is more carb heavy. So it all depends what you're more comfortable with. I've fed both Orijen & Acana and neither one gave my pups stinky poo. The kibble size of these 2 foods can be large for a smaller dog. Some do okay with it. But I cut the kibble in half for my little 3 pounder.
Earthborn Primitive Natural is a good food too. We keep that in our rotation & my finicky one likes it. It also has a pretty high protein content compared to other foods out there.
They're all good foods. Personally, I would prefer to feed Orijen, Acana or Earthborn over TOTW. It really depends how the food works with your particular dog. |
I just saw on Facebook that Orijen just started with a freeze dried food. Have you seen it in stores yet??? I would like to try that if it isn't too expensive.... Horizon has some good choices too.
