She had always had trouble with keeping her weight down and after trying almost every light or weight control food from popular brands I finally made the switch to Orijen! Wow I wish I had made the change so much sooner! She dropped the fat and toned up and looked incredible with the energy and speed to match.<br\/>\r\nSo like I said I have loved and supported Orijen\/Acana for a while now but recently I have been even more impressed with what I have seen\r\nAcana do for my new puppy.<br\/>\r\nI recently adopted a huntaway mix from a rescue who had a rough start. When I got him home he was pretty thin his coat was a bit flaky and\r\ndull and he would only eat his food when it was mixed with wet food and hot water. As soon as I could I began the switch to Acana puppy and\r\njunior and we have hit a major turning point in just a few weeks! His sensitive tummy has settled right down and he nearly back flips for\r\nhis dinner. During the time we were attending puppy preschool and by week 3 everyone was commenting on how amazing he was looking in\r\nparticular his coat! I had put the skin issues down to losing his puppy fluff but I was wrong and I still cannot believe how shiny and\r\nglossy his black coat is! And I'm over the moon that I can no longer see his hip bones sticking up while he plays and instead nice muscle\r\nand happy fit puppy! I can't wait to see how he matures with such great nutrition and know he will be in perfect condition to start his own\r\ncareer in sports when the time comes.<br\/>\r\nSorry for such a long winded email I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate being able to feed such amazing food to my crew and\r\njust what amazing results I have experienced with it from not just one but now 2 dogs with completely different needs! Thank you so so much\r\nyou have definitely got yourself a lifelong supporter and advocate and to be honest I think the beautiful dogs let the food speak for\r\nitself! &quot;<br\/>\r\nThanks again 😊",

It was around Feb\/March 2017 Valley suffered a brain injury, we almost lost her\r\nbut after a large dose of steroids she started to come right. August came and with weaning her off steroids she lost all of her coat, it was\r\nthin, wiry, dry and broken. I was feeding a raw diet and continued to do so until August 2018. Her coat was starting to grow back within\r\nthis year but very slowly and we had a major set back in Jan 2018 with her injury again and once again we almost lost her. She is now on a\r\nlow dose of steroids permanently. July 2018 and her coat started to fall out again, I was due with my second child in August and raw feeding\r\nbecame just to hectic with two small children so I decided to switch completely to Acana after talking about all other foods with Erin. <br\/>\r\nBy October we both noticed a massive difference in her coat, it stopped falling out, her colouring became darker and started to thicken. And\r\nnow it’s been 6 months feeding her Acana and her coat is looking amazing, it’s thick, rich in colour, super soft and luscious. In parallel\r\nwith feeding Acana I have also been professionally grooming her every 3\/4 weeks to ensure her coat is looked after to the fullest. <br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nHope you enjoyed my story so far, this year will be the year to tell if her coat falls out again but so far it’s looking good and she’s\r\n(touch wood) hasn’t had a relapse for some months now.",
