Question for Vegetarians - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Same here... I'm vegetarian, but I could never do that to Trixie.

I actually just became a vegetarian a couple of months ago, but I still feed Georgie his boiled chicken. I guess I look at like I know eating a lot of veggies is good for me, but because I am not sure how it will affect him so I give him chicken. I think I have spoiled him so much that I have to mix chicken in with his dry food or he will turn his nose up at it

I'm a veggie. Have been for 15 years, but I feed Merlot a regular diet. I think it would be silly of me to try and make him a veggie too. What's funny is I won't have meat products in my house or prepare them for my family except for Merlot. When he is sick or for a treat I give him a boiled chicken breast. That's the only time you will find meat in my kitchen!

Yup, this is an old thread popping up, Nicole!

Reason being, I made breakfast and we eat soy bacon. I have two pieces left and thought the girls would love it as they have been going nuts over the smell of it. So I thought I would do some research online before giving it to them (for tricks!) and no where did I find any convincing evidence that it was as bad for them as I had been led to believe.

So they will have it! They will have to EARN it, but I will give it to them in exchange for some nice performances. I may even film them for y'all!

Several of the doctors I work for are vegetarians - and they just feed their dogs regular dog food - with meat and whatever.

Well Glad, this isn't a thread that could trick us, like a Happy Birthday thread that all of us are responding to that's 5 months old.

Its funny this thread got brought back up. The real reason I wanted to know the question I had asked, was because my secret pal was a vegetarian and I wasnt sure if it would offend her if I got her dog treats(possibly meaty treats) but I ended up sending yogurt drops

Everyones answers were very imformative and I learned alot though
