I know we are alot smarter and wiser but does anyone ever wonder how on earth old Spot and Rover ever survived years ago... they ate what ever was left over on the table... just scraps or a can of good ole kenerations, people never went to the vet, and dogs LIVED FOR 20 years.. I am not debating good nutrition for dogs believe me I buy the best.. but every time my mother is here she always puts that bug in my ear.. and I have to say it does make me wonder...
