| Switched to Orijen i posted a month or so ago when I was concerned about feeding my pups Canidae. After reading what people had to say I went ahead and switched Hendrix and Lucy to ORIJEN and they are LOVINGGGGG it!!!! My only concern is that their breath stinks SOOOO bad! I put them on the fish formula because I read that it was best for their coats, but man does it make them smelly.... and they are already smelly to begin with haha. I know a lot of you on here also feed Orijen.... any suggestions on switching them to a different flavor that will also benefit their skin/coats? They have super dry skin, but I just cannot deal with the fish smell!

| We tried the Acana (same company as Orijen just lower protein formula) Pacifica and had to stop feeding it. Not because it was not great. Max LOVED it. I could not take the stinky breath and poop. LOL They love the Acana Prairie and Grasslands formulas.

| I feed Orijen fish to my guys and their breath and their poop sure smell a whole lot better than when I was feeding Evo. Evo made them stink like skunk. Orijen has a chicken and turkey formula as well but I think it has some fish in it. They also have a new product called Regional red, which I believe has buffalo, wild boar and a couple of other free range meats, no fish. |

| You can switch to the Orijen Adult, it's not as fishy, if your dog has dry skin, you can supplement it with Cod Liver oil, which has no smell to it. |
