I think I will stick to a meat diet for my dog for the initial reason I stated which is that I do not believe that dogs should be denied meat on the basis of human ethics BUT I have learned so much in just a couple of days re: additives in kibble food, etc. Not particular to the brand I use, which is Acana, but I believe all manufactured food is at risk for quality control issues and ingredient considerations are not always 100% because these considerations are made by humans who are not infallible.
I can't thank the OP enough for asking the question which prompted my own questions and for everyone's opinions/advice/experience. I really do love YT for these reasons! Thanks again for the info! I shall have a look later on today! |
Misty, if you can get a full digital copy of the article "
A field study on the nutrition of vegetarian dogs and cats in Europe," let me know. I'd like to read it. Maybe you will have better luck since you are in Europe.
