BACK TO THE BEGINNING

ORIJEN was born from a desire to mirror the evolutionary diet of dogs and cats.

ORIJEN’s Biologically Appropriate philosophy is simple:
mirror the quantity, freshness, and variety of meat that dogs and cats have evolved to eat.

Despite years of breeding, the anatomy and physiology of domestic dogs & cats remain the same as their wild cousins, so it’s no surprise their food requirements remain the same too.

The grey wolf is both the ancestor and the closest relative of all domestic dogs.

The Near Eastern wildcat is the closest relative of all domestic cats.

ORIJEN’s 5 Biologically Appropriate^™ Principles

With a 30-year reputation built on trust, award-winning ORIJEN gives Pet Lovers peace of mind by providing dogs and cats with everything they need to thrive.

Rich in meat and meat proteinModern dogs and cats are equipped with sharp teeth, a short digestive tract, and a body evolved to metabolize meat.
That’s why ORIJEN features:

85% Quality Animal Ingredients
38—44% Protein

Unmatched fresh meat inclusionsORIJEN’s regional ingredients supply nutrients in their freshest, most natural and nourishing form.

2/3 of the meat, fish, poultry, and eggs are fresh or raw, so they’re brimming with protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals in their most nourishing form.
1/3 of meat is air-dried at a low temperature (90°C), concentrating their goodness in highly bio-available form — compared to the industry standard of wasting bones and offal.

Abundant variety of fresh meatORIJEN provides a rich diversity of essential protein and fat to nourish dogs and cats completely.

Ranch-raised red meat
Free-run poultry and cage-free eggs - All meat and poultry are raised by people we know and trust, antibiotic-free, grass-fed, delivered fresh or raw and in WholePrey ratios.
Sustainable and wild-caught whole fish - Fresh and whole saltwater fish is unique to ORIJEN, unlike the minced fish frames that are the industry standard.

WholePrey meat ratiosIn nature, there is no need for vitamin or mineral supplements as wolves and wildcats derive their complete nutritional needs naturally by consuming whole animals.

ORIJEN incorporates a nourishing balance of fresh meat, organs, and cartilage or bone in ratios that deliver nutrients naturally.

Carb-smartConventional dog and cat foods feature fast carbohydrates such as rice, potato, tapioca, and starch — compounds that are quickly absorbed and can cause blood glucose to spike and promote fat build up.

ORIJEN’s award-winning kitchen is located in the heart of Alberta’s fertile farmlands and ranch lands.
“World-class, regional ingredients travel from the farms of people we know and trust right to our kitchen within three days.”

Fresh or raw ingredients that meet ORIJEN’s
precise standards.

ORIJEN’s fresh ingredients are refrigerated to
preserve freshness & nutrients.

ORIJEN’s RAW ingredients are frozen at peak season
using state-of-the-art techniques to lock in their
natural goodness — so they can use seasonal
ingredients to provide a variety of flavour
for your dog or cat. The nutritional benefits
of RAW meat do not degrade, so your pet
is getting the best, nutrient-rich protein
— a key factor in the superior
palatability and feeding performance
of ORIJEN foods.
