Yep. This is well documented. The only problem..... Ever read the ingredient label for most dry dog foods? Almost all are nearly "Vegan" already. Full of a bunch of grains, very little meat-based proteins.
My dog(s) get table scraps, supplemented by good quality dog foods when needed. Most of my dogs live well past the normal live expectancy, so the diet must be working. Including the poultry bones. Never had a dog choke on a bone in the 50+ years I've been feeding them to dogs. Checked with my mother. She's 81. Fed their dogs scraps all their lives, never had one choke on a bone. Lots of good iron and protein in the marrow of those bones!!! |
