Do you realize you have just accused me of abusing my dear beloved pet, just because I have come to a different conclusion than you have on the subject of feeding?

If you have intentially done this, knowing I am not about to change my mind or opinion on the subject, then you are guilty of knowingly hurting the feelings of one of those same dear ones that you are trying to protect. Are we not all animals? Are we not only the older brothers and sisters of the animal kingdom?

As far as the subject goes, don't you think it is possible that you don't have all the information on the subject? There are many things that Man does not know, can not know. We can't follow all the canines in the world around to see what they eat. There are many good reasons to feed dogs a vegetarian diet. The vets I have consulted on this have rendered their decision that my dog is well fed and healthy, and complimented me on my dog's coat and health before they had a clue what I fed her. They said, "whatever it is, keep it up, it's working for her."

I would appreciate it if you would not attack me personally. That is definitely abuse.

Dee has said that this subject might be better left alone (thanks for the reminder), and that reminds me that Mike asked us once before to drop it from the list. So that is what I am going to do.

Thank you Teri, I'm of the same opinion.  It is terrible to force a carnivorous animals to live on plant matter.  It is a form of abuse.

They may adapt and survive but it is good healthy nutrition??  Dogs are carnivores.  In a perfect world those who do as you do and feed a vegan diet to dogs would be charged with animal cruelty.  Dogs do use plants as medicines so I don't question their ability to benefit from a particular plant.  How sad that you would force your dog to follow your lifestyle.
