i did my own taste test for my dogs, which i breed pomeranians, i tested -blue buffalo,- fromm, -prairie,- instinct,- natural balance, and orijen. all of the dogs choose "orijen" they wont touch anything else now that they've tried it, & much to my surprise, their stools have all firmed up! they were previously on blue buffalo and all had loose stools, so that's why i was on a quest to find a new food, but since the orijen seems to work, i'll will look no further!
