Guys, shut it lol. Dogs don't need meat in their diet. Cats need meat protein (taurine) because they're obligated carnivores.

Dogs are omnivore. I don't know how well a bean diet would go. Consult a nutritionist. They definitely need more than rice and beans to live.

Omnivore means that they need proteins as well as they need vitamins. It doesn't mean that they can get away with it only eating meat or vegetals.

If I'm wrong please elighten me. Not sarcasm.


You are right. They still need protein. That can be very hard to sustain with strictly plants. And in my scientific opinion, they need meat. Kind of like us. We are omnivorous too but a meat eater just turns out so much healthier overall. It's in our blood. Same for dogs.

A vegan diet would be so expensive and impractical.
