In the OP's case, it seems more like a case of picky dog, and owner giving in. I believe that most healthy dogs should never eat a vegetarian diet. Obviously Daisy is a rarity who is thriving on such a diet.
Nope, it's not a rarity. I've seen other vegetarian dogs who are also thriving. It's all about properly balancing the diet and nutrient profiles not ingredients. And as I said, I'd feed egg over meat if it was more portable and less perishable than meat.
