[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The idea that people would feed their dogs something with peas or potatoes as the first ingredient is insane to me. [B] I get that not everyone can afford or manage a raw or all meat type diet like what a true carnivore canine would eat. [/B] Don't feed a dog like you'd feed a vegan human. [/quote] Dogs can (and probably should) eat a pretty varied diet and get on fine. If you feed your dog all meat and include nothing else, you will end up with a very sick dog. If you want to make your own raw or cooked meals for your pets, that's fine, (I used to cook for my old dog due to his allergies) there are a ton of resources to help you put together a balanced diet. Commercially prepared foods are pretty convenient, though, and all meet AAFCO guidelines at minimum, so there is that. [/quote] +1. Dogs are omnivores, not pure carnivores the way cats are. [/quote]
