It is thought that the myth arose from when humans were diagnosed with kidney disease they were put on a low protein diet, however the only reason for that was because low protein is also often low nitrogen, nitrogen is what people with kidney disease should avoid, not protein. Now patients with kidney disease are put simply on a low nitrogen diet consisting of easily digesting protein that will therefore have fewer nitrogen by-products.

High protein is the best possible thing you can give a healthy dog. I believe in feeding dogs what they were designed to eat.
