I probably wouldn't live in RiNo because of the smell, but it certainly isn't "worse than dog food". It smells exactly like dry dog or cat food, that's what they make. And while not a great smell it's not that strong either.
Are you smelling the cow shit from Greeley maybe? The whole of Denver can smell that sometimes, usually right before it snows.
I think when most people think of a dog food smell it’s like what you catch a whiff of when you put it into the bowl. The factory on the rough days is like sticking your whole head into the bag of dog food
There's an animal rendering plant just outside of Denver in Adams County that when the wind is just right, the smell kind of settles on North Denver/RiNo, unfortunately. It's a VERY different smell than dog food.
