I fed my toy poodle with orijen 6 fish for 6 months. So far so good, but I think he is bored with the foods.

I'm thinking to change the foods.

1) from dog food analysis, orijen is best brand with quality ingredients. The protein content is very high, 40% they said not suitable for toy poodle which is small breed dog. Is this true? If possible, I'm thinking to stick with the brand but maybe change to chicken? Orijen puppy? Is it for small breed type?

2) change to lower protein content. I have found one, Artemis brand fresh mix for adult small breed which I think is quite good. Not as good as orijen, but the protein content is lower, maybe more suitable for toy poodle? This is with grain.. But good grain. Orijen is grain free which is better. Anyone know where to get Artemis? So far I checked big ones like petsmore and petslover no sell. I'm from selangor. Know where to get Artemis?

3) what u think acana vs Artemis for toy poodle? Acana is lower protein content about 33%. Ingredients lost to orijen maybe better than Artemis?

4) any other suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hope to get feedback ASAP cause I'm thinking to get new pet foods for my toy poodle tonight as he doesn't eat the current orijen 6 fish kibble anymore. Now feeding him with chicken meat.

Thanks.

Artemis no longer brought in to Malaysia AFAIK.
I was hoping to get Fresh Mix for my boy earlier but was told that supplier discontinued.

Maybe you want to change from Fish to Lamb or one of those Kangaroo / Duck / etc by Addiction?
I heard good reviews about GO! and NOW! by a friend as well. http://www.petcureanintl.com/
Pet Safari has Go! &  Now! (Endurance is 6*)

Or Innova / TOTW ? Some of Innova/TOTW is 6* on DFA. Pet Safari has them as well..

Hi rhika,
Thanks for your reply and suggestion.

I went to pets more today. They recommend canine caviar holistic pet food.

They said is very good, when I ask them to compare with addiction, acana, they said canine caviar is better. They said is their best dog food. smile.gif

So I bought the fish one to try.

The best thing they said is it is direct transition from your current pet food, meaning you can feed it with the new food right away instead of gradually adding up the amount of new food.

Anyone has any comment on canine caviar holistic pet food?

Anyone interested to buy my canine caviar holistic pet food fish?
I just bought and my dog don't eat.
I think he doesn't like fish smell. I get the orijen 6 fish also no eat.

He likes chicken.

I got for rm64 planning to sell rm50 like that. It's 99% full.
Can meet around klang valley. Do not want to waste pet food n money.
Get the money get different pet food, this time don't choose fish already since he don't eat at all.
