Vegetarian Dog?

[PandyMandy]

Hi! Just wondering if anyone is raising a vegetarian dog and/or if its even possible because of the amount of protein dogs need. If so, what foods are best?

I think that John Olexa is the only member here that has a vegetarian dog. You may want to PM him on what he feeds Lizzie.

Nope, dogs are carnivores and should be able to eat meat.

i do not think it is healthy to force a dog to be a vegetarian. it is one thing for a human to make that choice, but we should not force it on our carnivores.

In my opinion, the only reason that any dog should be on a vegetarian diet is if they have some sort of allergy to animal proteins.
