Your puppy is unique and feeding requirements will vary with environment, age and activity.
That’s why we suggest starting with the feeding guides, and then monitoring their weight and adjusting portions as needed. Split the daily feed amount into smaller portions to feed 2-3 times daily and always to keep fresh, clean water available.
ORIJEN PUPPY provides more calories from protein and fat and fewer from carbohydrates, providing a calorie distribution that mirrors the natural puppy diet and supports healthy growth and development.

"Fantastic Dogfood!"
Posted bySerena Mcewenon23rd Nov 2025I spent weeks researching the best large breed puppy foods and decided on orijen for our neo mastiff/amstaff puppy Nova. What more could you ask for in a food? It has literally everything! Full of freshness, meats, vegetables, fruits and fish with no unnecessary fillers that make you fur babies sick in the long term. She’s gaining steady weight, her coat looks fantastic, she eats less of it than other foods, so is obviously more filling. I’m Very pleased, and so is Nova! Thanks pet direct!
"The best!"
Posted byBen Curtison17th Feb 2023We have a black Goldador and his coat changed within days of switching him from Royal Canin to Orijen, even the vet took not of how great his coat is. He loves it too!
"Great service"

"Orijen puppy"
Posted byRoslyn Koningon20th Mar 2022Our pup has an auto immune disorder, I wanted a food that didn’t increase inflammation in her body, she has had no flare ups on this food, her coats is super shinny, she’s gone off the food a bit as she’s getting older and we will change her soon to and adult one in the range, we’ve combated that with something with gravy on top,but very happy with this product and staff where great at helping us when there was a shortage over Christmas.
