Contents
Protein
Dogs are native carnivores who require a diet consisting of fresh meats. While traditional pet food offerings only use single animal proteins like beef or lamb as sources for nutrition, ORIJEN’s Regional Red features multiple proteins sourced from Angus beef, wild boar, Boer goat cheese, Romney lamb meat, and wild caught mackerel to meet this natural diet of your pup!
Two-thirds of the protein found in ORIJEN foods is fresh or raw while the remainder is freeze-dried to preserve every vital nutrient without altering its taste. This approach results in food that provides more calories from meat and less from carbohydrates – helping prevent obesity and diabetes in addition to providing energy as well as essential fatty acids.
Fat
Dogs are ancestral carnivores, so their diet should contain whole animal ingredients. Instead of just using one source of meat protein like Black Angus beef or wild boar meat, ORIJEN recipes use multiple proteins from across a wide range of animal sources such as ranch-raised Black Angus beef, Boer goat meat, Romney lamb meat from Yorkshire pork farms or wild caught mackerel as ingredients.
Two-thirds of the animal ingredients used are fresh or raw to provide a concentrated source of protein, reflecting your dog’s ancestral prey diet of fresh meat and fresh bones and cartilage with essential amino acids, fatty acids, edible bone/cartilage nutrition as well as glucosamine/chondroitin supplements.
Champion Petfood’s in-house kitchens create this grain-free recipe featuring 85% high quality animal ingredients to meet the dietary needs of dogs of all breeds and life stages.
Carbohydrates
orijen Regional Red is designed to support your dog’s natural diet, with protein-rich meat ingredients rich in the animal fats they evolved to consume. Ranch-raised beef, wild boar, bison, Romney lamb, Yorkshire pork and wild-caught herring all come FRESH and preservative-free for optimal nutrient delivery to ensure your pet receives all they require for healthful living.
Calories come from high-quality fruits and vegetables such as pumpkin, squash, peas, and chickpeas – these low glycemic carbohydrates release energy slowly while helping maintain stable blood sugar levels in your dog. This can prevent weight gain or obesity.

Two-thirds of the animal ingredients included in this Biologically Appropriate recipe are fresh or raw meat products; dehydrated meat adds protein-packed punch that fresh meat cannot provide alone.
