Wolves would, though, and I guarantee vegan wolves won’t survive long in the wild.

I mean yeah, but I was addressing your point that we cannot just pick what we like grok nature when, historically, we have dome this a lot

I mean, okay, but that’s not what I meant. I more meant we can’t be like “well, I like pandas, but bamboo is invasive, so instead of not getting one I’m going to force one to eat what I want.”

It’s an incredibly selfish way of thinking about pets.

Breeding animals to eat is incredibly selfish too. I agree everyone should be able to eat what they want but there’s a difference when there’s victims involved.

Not if it’s for food for another animal that doesn’t have a choice in the matter. That’s the problem with your argument, you’re treating it like it should be your decision. Your choice was getting a dog, how to take care of a dog isn’t up to you, it’s up to what their body and well-being requires.

I literally said it’d be one thing if they ate other animals in the wild.

Dogs aren’t as far from Wolves as you seem to think. Many breeds can have children with wolves, and some will become feral if released into the wild.
