How To Claim an Orijen Dog Food Recall

We trust that pet food manufacturers will take care to ensure that all of their products will be safe and healthy for our furry friends. However, production mistakes do happen, and this can lead to products like Orijen dog food being recalled. When a pet food is recalled, you may be able to make a claim to get a refund for the recalled product.

If you are concerned about an Orijen dog food recall, you have ways to take action. You can search for product recalls to see if others have had similar issues and possibly get a refund for the product.

This process can be difficult if you aren't sure where to look, but thankfully, there are ways to simplify the process. DoNotPay has a tool that can help with your recall concerns.

How Do I Make a Claim for the Orijen Dog Food Recall?

If you are concerned about an issue with your Orijen dog food and wonder if there is a product recall, there are steps that you can take on your own to research the product and make a claim. To make a claim on a recall on your own, consider the following steps

  1. Research if there is already a recall on Orijen dog food. Product recalls in the United States can be found on Recalls.gov.
  2. If there is already a recall, you may be eligible for a refund for the product. Collect any information that you have to prove that you purchased the recalled product.
  3. If the product does not yet have an active recall, you can report the product. This can be done at USA.gov/recalls. When submitting a report be sure to include details about why you believe a product should be recalled.
  4. At this point, you will have to wait for the recall to either advance or be denied.

Is There an Issue With Orijen Dog Food?

Right now, there is no active recall on Orijen dog food or any other Origen products. It seems as though there was once an Orijen cat food recall in Australia, but there has never been a recall on Orijen products in the United States or Canada.

Just because there is not a recall right now, though, does not mean that there could not be issues in the future. If you are concerned with Orijen dog food that you have purchased, you could still take steps to report it for a potential recall.

Why Do Pet Food Recalls Happen?

Common reasons for pet food recalls include contamination, foreign material, nutritional imbalances, and packaging problems.

ContaminationPet food can have bacterial or mold contamination that comes from the food itself or the food processing equipment. Pet food can also be contaminated with harmful chemicals, such as melamine.
Foreign materialWhen food is being processed, bits of the processing equipment can break off and end up in the food. These tiny bits of metal or plastic, when eaten, can damage a pet’s digestive tract lining.
Nutritional imbalancesSometimes, pet food can contain too little or too much of a particular nutrient. A nutritional imbalance can cause a nutritional deficiency or overdose, both of which can make pets sick.
Packaging problemsFaulty food packaging can lead to a pet food recall. For example, if a “pop tab” on a can of pet food is defective, moisture can enter the food and create a breeding ground for mold and bacteria

Who Is Eligible for a Dog Food Recall?

In the case of Orijen dog food, currently, no one is eligible for a refund or replacement because there is not an active recall. In the cases of other product recalls, you are eligible for the recall if you purchased a product during the time that the recall is in effect. Keeping the product, receipt, and other relevant information can help provide evidence to support your claim.

Do I Immediately Get a Recall if I Report a Product?

If you report a product, this does not guarantee that it will be recalled. You may have legitimate safety concerns involving Orijen dog food or other products. However, if there is no proof of widespread contamination of any kind, it is unlikely that a recall will be issued.

Because it can be a lot of work to determine which products have been recalled, and it can ultimately be unsuccessful, searching for recalls and making claims on your own can be a discouraging process. Thankfully, this isn't something that you have to tackle on your own.
