Should dogs eat vegetarian dog food? Umm, I don't know. My mommy is a vegetarian, and does not like the thought of any animal suffering, then she got me. I love to eat meat, especially chicken. As a test, she placed a piece of chicken and a bowl of rice in front of me. 99% of the time, I will take the chicken. Wild dogs, my ancestors lived mainly on small animals. The vegetables they did eat were in the stomachs and intestines of the animals we eat. It seems like it would be healthiest to eat our natural diet instead of vegetarian dog food. My mommy doesn't want animals to suffer, she loves me more than chickens, so I get to eat meat. However, I still enjoy chewing on a brocolli stalk here and there. I'm curious about what the top selling vegetarian dog food companies are putting in their food. I researched this, so I thought I would make a list.
