so i posted something simular on a closed thread but i dont agree with dogs being vegan or vegetarian but i do agree with it for humans (although i do eat meat i used to be veg but had to stop for some reasons)

here is why...


canines

-all teeth are pointed,sharp and meant for tearing flesh
- canines have the enzymes to digest raw meat. thats why they
dont get ill when eat it

- in the wild canines eat primary meat, and eat veggies to either aid in some digestion or to survive when food is scarice, not on a reg basis

- dogs cannot thrive on a veg diet without supplements

humans
-most teeth are flat for grinding or flat for cutting through fruits/ veggies however we cannot (even with out "canine teeth") easily tear flesh

- we get sick if we eat raw meat we dont have the enzymes to digest them.

- meat leads to increased cholesterol: humans die/become ill more often from clogged arteries leading to heart attacks. dogs dont dies as often from clogged arteries

- primative humans (in some yes controversal studies) ate fruits and veggies as their main source of nutrition

- humans can survive on a veg diet without supplements (with proper planning, however most human veg or not could use supplements b/c most dont plan and get all the nec. nutrients)
