Hi
I'm a vegetarian who lives on a farm (no meat) and I have 3 dogs, and they all eat meat, for the simple reason that that is natural and healthy!. Dogs are carnivores!. However, dog meat is often bred in horrible conditions, so what I do is buy free range chicken meat (RSCPA standard approved) and free range beef, changing them around, I also give them my free range eggs, rice, sweet corn, and some other vegetables (whats left over from our meal!) which mean I don't have to give them as much meat overall!. I hate buying meat, but our dogs really do need it!Www@FoodAQ@Com

dogs are actually omnivores, in the wild dogs regularly eat grasses!. and unlike cats that go blind on a vegan diet dogs can live on a vegan diet and will generally be healthy!. i do however think that dogs should be fed a food that contains meat, just because they can live without it does not mean they should!.
having a dog is not an unvegan thing to do, as long as the dog is adopted from a shelter and tot purchased from a pet store or breeder!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dogs are carnivores!. Not omnivores, and certainly not Herbivores!.
It isn't healthy for them!.
So I am against it!.
Human bodies are built for either, plus we have the brains to decide!.
These people are FORCING their dogs to live on a diet their bodies shouldn't be eating!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dogs eat meat, that's a fact!. It would be cruel and unhealthy for the dog not - and being cruel to animals is, I guess, what you are against!. If you are unhappy with feeding a dog meat don't get a dog - it's simple!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Dogs need meat in their diet!. If you disagree with feeding a dog meat, then don't get a dog!. Get a fish instead!. In fact - why even have a captive pet if you are so concerned about animal welfare!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Dogs are carnivores because they possess canine teeth!.
Humans also have canine teeth!. So eat a steak!.
IF i was vegan, and thats a big IF, i would feed the dog meat in its diet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't eat meat, but I wouldn't think it's a good idea for a dog to be vegan!. They are mainly carnivores!.
You'll get get a flatulent pet if you feed it nut cutlets!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I wish people would stop to question their 'common sense' once in a while!. Dog's aren't carnivores!.!.!. they're omnivores just like us!. My dog loved munching on carrots, apples, just about anything actually! Sure in the wild dog's wouldn't have been vegan but they also wouldn't have eaten processed dog food, kibble, dog treats and all the other things people feed them!. A healthy well thought out vegan diet is fine for a dog and probably better than the inferior quality meat dog food on the market!.
There are loads of dogs out there living healthily and in fact thriving on a vegan diet!. The oldest dog in the UK who's 27(!!) is vegan for god's sake so just because something as seen as out of the ordinary or going against the status quo, doesn't mean that it's wrong!. People say the same thing about vegans in general!.!.!. our bodies were designed to eat meat etc etc!. If they actually did some research and were a bit more open minded they would see just how beneficial a vegan diet can be to both humans and dogs!.

Dogs are omnivores by nature and can thrive on a feel vegan diet!. Vegans do not *keep dogs* but maybe adopt them into their family!. I know a lot of vegan dogs out there and even vegan cats (though vegan cats are more controversial since they are carnivores, they get supplements)!. You can be perfectly healthy as a vegan dog, actually more healthy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Making your dog be vegan is unfair to them I believe!.
They are omnivores and are designed to eat bones, well they'll eat just about anything however foul and revolting it may be!.
Vegan dog food , well it just isn't right, the dogs' teeth will probably fall out too, with the lack of chewing!.
I don't think it right to impose ones own beliefs on those who have no choice of their own!.
EDIT::Dogs ARE OMNIVORES watch them and see what they select to eat, it's not just meat, they even graze!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
