I've met 17 year old dogs who ate Beneful their whole lives, some 15 yr + dogs who always ate "high quality" foods according to pet boutiques, some who ate raw, some who ate non balanced foods (I knew one dog who ate primarily rotisserie chicken  because she wouldn't eat dog food). You honestly just never know. Not that I am advocating for some of those, LOL... but overall, I have seen dogs thrive on a lot of different things. I think a lot greatly depends on genetics. Just do the best you can.  |
Yep. Our first dog was feed moist and meaty from Purina and what caused her to be put down had nothing to do with food, I also gave her some of whatever I was eating lol. My parents fed their dogs beneful and one lived to like 15. I just have chilled out a bit on the food thing. I don’t know what I would get and feed if Callie wasn’t on the prescription food.
