Like i said before it's your choice what you want to feed your dog and what you base your decision on , i never once said Orijen is the best food for every dog, i actually never expressed any views at all on the food you chose to feed. I never posted to make anyone feel bad about what they want to feed i just wanted to clear up some confusion.
You said it was a typo and that's fine, mistakes happen no biggie:).
The best food for your dog is the food your dog does best on, opinions will differ from site to site and people to people.
I checked the comments under the review you posted and someone asked "Why is Orijen Regional Red or other Orijen Grain Free dog foods not recommended for small and/or inactive dogs?"
i agree with this reply someone posted below, " I think the reason that the administrator said that is because this food is so nutrient dense that the rations for every dog are reduced compared to most other dog foods.So basically what he is saying is that it would be very easy for a small inactive dog to become overweight on this food.But this is true for ANY breed-size of dog.So you have to be careful on the AMOUNT of Orijen that you feed to ANY dog.Use the chart on the bag for reference but keep in mind that every dog is an individual so any given dog may need a little more or less than is stated on the package,due to metabolism or exercise-energy levels.Also Champion pet foods-the maker of Orijen recommends their products for all breeds from tiny to extra large." hope that helps |
