There are some really high quality dog treats available out there, with great ingredients…but I’m sad to say that the opposite is usually the norm.

Male participants were on “meat” and “non meat” diets for two weeks during…
I’ve had the pleasure of sharing my adult life with a total of eight fabulous dogs (so far). And seven of them have been vegan. When I first went vegan fifteen years ago, it was really hard for me to feed my best friends animal products. Then a friend gave me a copy of Vegetarian Cats and Dogs by James Peden.
