Hi Guys,

To all you Orijen feeders. Today a customer came in the shop to bring back a bag of Orijen this formula was the Senior. She has claimed there were large shards of bone chips in the food. So I said well bring the bag in so I could have a look, thinking like really lady? Sure enough there were litterally hundreds of loose bone shards and slivers they are very very sharp. They almost look like maggots. So I went and opened almost every bag of Orijen we have in the shop right now sure enough in the Puppy, LB Puppy, Adult and Senior there were many bone shards and slivers stuck in the kibble and loose in the bag. Some bags from diffrent lot numbers as well. Ironically, there were none in OUR batches of 6 fish but that does not mean they are not there. So if you are feeding Orijen please carefully inspect the pieces of kibble looking for whitish bones pieces. Agian, they are very sharp. I will try to attatch a photo later. We are in Alberta and the plant is about half hour from my place. I have been trying to speak with them all day - they will not return any messages. I am very disappointed to say the least we have completely removed it from a our shelves. I will try and get a few photos later on.

I don't feed Orijen, but thanks for the warning! That is really scary to think what those sharp pieces of bone could do. I'm also disappointed that the company isn't returning phone calls. Maybe because it's the weekend? Let's hope they're more responsive.

bumping up.... I don't use this food, but I know some on here do. Thanks Ash

I am starting to get fed up with these dog food companies! Where the heck are the standards and the regulations? Those bones could be really dangerous and get stuck inside the dog causing all kinds of problems. Really frightening...I hope people realize before they feed this to their dogs!

That's very disturbing !!! Up until this incident I thought they were really top notch and was sad no place here sold it. Guess it just goes to show, unless you're fixing it yourself, we really have no guarantees.

Where is their company headquartered? Can you contact someone like the FDA in the states to investigate??? I don't know if it's possible.
