Orijen tundra dog 2 kg

YOUR DOG IS UNIQUE

Your dog is unique and his nutritional needs vary depending on the environment, his age and his activity level.

For this reason we recommend that you start feeding using the guides below, regularly checking your dog's weight and changing the rations as needed. The recommended frequency is two meals a day, always leaving fresh, clean water available.

† Use a standard 250ml/120g scoop. Serve dry or slightly moistened. We recommend that you visit your trusted veterinarian regularly. To best maintain the freshness of the product, we recommend carefully closing the bag and storing it in a cool, dry place.

ORIJEN Tundra is designed to meet the levels established by the AAFCO nutritional profiles for dog foods at all life stages.

OUR PHILOSOPHY FOR BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE FOOD

The gray wolf is the ancestor and closest relative of all domestic dogs. Although years and years of crossbreeding have produced “different-looking wolves,” the internal functions of the dogs' bodies have remained unchanged, so it's no wonder that their dietary needs are unchanged. Our 5 Biologically Appropriate Food Principles are simple and replicate the freshness and variety of animal ingredients that dogs evolved with.

• RICH IN ANIMAL INGREDIENTS (85%) AND PROTEINS (40%)

  Dogs' anatomy and sharp teeth are made to metabolize proteins and fats from meat. ORIJEN is designed to provide dogs with all the nutrients necessary to meet their biological needs.

  • 85% fish and animal ingredients (2/3 fresh or raw and 1/3 delicately dehydrated)
  • 40% nutritious meat proteins
  • 100% of animal ingredients come from animals declared fit for human consumption before being included in our foods
  • The dehydrated animal and fish ingredients contained in our foods are produced with fresh fish and animal ingredients declared fit for human consumption and dehydrated at 90° to create a concentrated source of protein that cannot be obtained from fresh animal ingredients alone.
  • FREE from vegetable protein extracts or concentrates (from potatoes or peas)
  • FREE from high glycemic index carbohydrates (tapioca, potatoes, rice)
  • FREE from gluten or cereals

• UNPARALLELED AMOUNT OF INCLUSIONS OF FRESH ANIMAL INGREDIENTS (2/3)

  Fresh fish and animal ingredients are the basis of award-winning ORIJEN foods.

  • 2/3 of the fish and animal ingredients are fresh or raw to provide dogs with essential nutrients in their richest, most natural form.
  • 1/3 of the animal ingredients are gently dehydrated at 90°C from fresh animal ingredients, game and fish to create a rich and concentrated source of nutritious proteins that cannot be obtained from fresh animal ingredients alone.

• AN ABUNDANT VARIETY OF ANIMAL INGREDIENTS (8)

  In the wild, dogs can eat a rich variety of meat. Often, however, this variety is not found in common dog foods, which usually contain only one animal ingredient, usually chicken or lamb, which is heavily manipulated and rarely fresh.

  For this reason, the award-winning ORIJEN Tundra food contains a rich diversity of red meat and fish ingredients in Biologically Appropriate proportions of whole prey (WholePrey™) to provide the nutrients necessary for dogs to achieve optimal health:

  • Fresh domestic goat from rural Alberta
  • Wild boar from rural Alberta
  • Fresh venison from rural Alberta
  • Whole Arctic char from the cold waters of the Yukon
  • Free-range duck from Ontario farms
  • Free-range mutton in rural Alberta
  • Whole rainbow trout from Ontario lakes
  • Sardine caught in the wild in the Pacific of North Vancouver Island

• ANIMAL INGREDIENTS IN THE PROPORTIONS OF WHOLE PREY (WHOLEPREY)

  ORIJEN's ingredients are in WholePrey™ proportions of meat, organs and cartilage that mirror those found in nature and eliminate the need for long lists of synthetic ingredients, allowing us to limit additives to just zinc.

  • Animal ingredients – essential for proteins and fats, as well as vitamins A, B, D and K, copper, chromium, folic acid, iron, magnesium, potassium, selenium and zinc.
  • Organs – Packed with virtually all the nutrients your dog needs to thrive, including vitamins, minerals, healthy fats and amino acids.
  • Edible Bone – A rich source of minerals including calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium, in the natural form that your dog's body can easily absorb.

• LOW CARBOHYDRATE CONTENT (20%)

  Dogs have no biological need to consume carbohydrates, which is why ORIJEN Tundra contains only 20% carbohydrates, all with a low glycemic index and with a gradual release of sugars into the blood.

  The more proteins there are in a food, the more space available for carbohydrates is reduced. ORIJEN Tundra is a food rich in proteins and with a low carbohydrate content thanks to lentils, chickpeas, pumpkin, fruit and vegetables, which are digested slowly and reduce the potential accumulation of fat.

  Most common pet foods contain high-glycemic or fast-digesting carbohydrates, such as potatoes and tapioca, which are known to be a major cause of obesity and diabetes.
