I guess to get a more neutral and fair judgement / opinions, best is to quote from independent professionals instead of links from certain brand of pet food companies.

Well as for my Maya, her fur will drops due to allergy if feed with brands other than Orijen, once with Orijen, it will grow back nicely. I guess like human, some of us allergy to seafood, some allergy to certain meat.

Sure bo? I got 10 doggies indoor feeding Orijen neh, if smelly poo then i fainted liao!

Orijen has 70% real meat, while Acana 40% price differs because of the ingredients, the more real meat u put in, the more expensive it is.

To me, Orijen smell... Erm... Very NICE wo~ Acana like normal kibbles.

YES, agree jarjar. It make no sense that the vets can't read the ingredients and they should know how good OR BAD are the ingredients for our pets.

If your vets are recommending Science Plan and you tell them about Addiction, Natural Balance or Orijen, and they say "I never heard about these brands" or "only Science Plan is good, any other brand are rubbish" or anything like that, then I would say this vet is simply ignorance to do more research or just care about their wallet.

But of corse, not all vets are like that, many are good and doing great jobs.
