Open Question: Dog Food (switching to Orijen)?
I'd like to switch my lab's food over to Orijen adult. The shop near me carries it. So I bought a 5lb bag just to start mixing it in with her regular. She currently eats Innova (green bag) and she's been on that for 1.5yrs. Its only been decent and I probably should have switched a long time ago. She does only ok on Innova. But I have been on this grain free kick. My dog came from a field trial breeder and was eating Canidae ALS since 8 Weeks. She ate that for her first 1.5yrs before I switched over to Innova. The breeder currently uses Orijen food for his field trial dogs I learned and he swears by it and his dogs have been on it for the last 2 years with no issues yet. But Innova protein is at 24% while Orijen is at 40%. Vet told me that's a lot of protein on the kidney. He said he has never heard of Orijen but knows of Innova EVO that seems similar but he doesn't like that stuff. Said if my dog is not hunting or in field trials its not needed. I think he might need to relearn nutrition but anyway... thoughts on Orijen Adult? Anyone out there used this food for a long time?

Open Question: Is my dog constipated?
We have a 7 month old JTR. He isn't 100% potty trained yet but lately he has gone 24hrs with out having a bowel movement. Could he be constipated? We usually feed him at 8am and again at 6pm and while he eats we will tie him to the door by his food so he can eat and then he cant wander the house and poop. lately tho we haven't seen him poop and we will only give him free run of our downstairs only after he has done his business outdoors. so that means that he has been on a leash in the house or in his kennel. Is there anything i can give him that will make him poop regularly again? He used to go at least 3 times a day now hes down to one if we are lucky. Poor thing. I hate seeing him on a leash in doors.
