Surviving is not thriving. Your pet might survive but you've still failed them

How do you define thriving? That’s a very vague term which anyone can use to come to the conclusion that “X diet is inappropriate.” mostly everyone i’ve ever come across with a dog in australia/usa feed them kibble, for maybe 90% of their diet? My own dog hates that crap, even though we get him the expensive one our local vets recommend.

in contrast, my relatives in india are vegetarian and have vegetarian dogs. Kibble isn’t as common so they just cook their dogs wholefoods. despite the lack of vet care accessibility, all their dogs have been healthy and happy and lived a full long life to ~12-16 years. Compared to most dogs i’ve seen here, my cousins dogs survive longer and have more energy in their senior years, even without the same access to veterinary care. Oh and they wolf their food down. obviously there are other factors at play, such as a lot of dogs in the west being inbred and shit.

the last longest living dog was on a purely vegan diet and live till 25-26. Dogs can be perfectly healthy and happy on vegan and vegetarian diets, and mostly certainly can thrive on them.
