It is especially important that a puppy is getting everything they need or there growth can seriously be messed up. Just because other people do it dosen't make it right or best for the dog even if that person has gotten lucky. You should not force a dogs system to do something there not meant for. I do hope you do some research and don't just base it on opinions. In fact I strongly suggest you consult with a vet nutritionist.
And when she does consult with a vet nutritionist she'll learn that for $25 an adult vegetarian diet can sustain her adult dog. It really doesn't matter what sources of protein are used if the amino acid requirements of a dog are met. Hate to tell you but your vet tech is wrong.
