dehydrated form. Both are human-grade excellent grain-freed dog foods but wondered why the dehydrated was only from 21% to 29% protein, depending on the flavor. I wondered also if the drop in protein is responsible for my dog suddenly having a insatiable appetite since I switched.
Can anyone who knows about nutrition please give me your thoughts on if the new food with less protein is what might be making my dog very hungry, and also why so little protein compared to Orijen, is Orijen too high, or is the raw too low?
Thanks so much if you can help!

41% protein seems very high.
Canine athletes such as Racing Greyhounds and are usually fed 28 -30% protein feeds.
Your dog is probably just adjusting to his new food.
Could it be that he prefers the taste of the new food and ‘can’t get enough’ – much the same as me with chocolate!
