But using your logic, a wolf pack should be just as happy meeting their
nutritional needs by grazing in the fields as they do from eating the stomach
contents of a herbivore. Problem is, a wolf can't digest grass because it is
not a omnivore. I'm not arguing that wolves need more than protein in their
diet (Canivores thrive on protein but it is not their only nutritional need)
however they get what they need by eating the entire kill (stomach, organs,
hooves, hide) not from munching on tree bark or sampling local plant life.
I know that this argument about dogs NOT being canivores has been floating
around for years, and I know it's just a belief not a scientific fact. I have
nothing against nutritionists, but I think I'll stick to the biologists on this
one.

Cindy,
Do you know what an omnivore is? Vegetarians are freaks. I am basing my
info on the dietary needs of animals. A true carnivore needs only meat to
survive. And omnivore requires vegetation as well as meat for a balanced diet.
An herbivore requires only grasses and grains to survive. A vegetarian is a
freak of nature and is not a natural order. Wolves are NOT true carnivores.
They eat the stomach contents first for the grasses and then the meat. Where
do I get this? Well, I have been involved in animal nutrition for about 10
years. I have attended seminars and even pre-vet nutritional classes that have
confirmed these findings. I work with raw feeding vets as well as holistic
vets. They feel the same as I, that the diet must be balanced based on the
species of the animal. If you wish to disagree, so be it. If you want your
dogs to be total carnivores, that is your choice. I am just throwing out MY
ideas for people to consider, based on my education on the
subject.

} What are you basing your info on? Vegetarians like to say dogs are
omnivores, which is why they feed their dogs only vegetarian based dogs foods,
but since a dog is a direct descendant of a wolf and wolves are indeed
carnivores not sure how that is possible. Bears are omnivores because they are
just as happy eating berries as eating meat and if you've ever baited a bear
you know that it is not meat but sweets that they are attracted to.
Dogs can eat fuits and vegetables, but they thrive on meat/fat (protein) and
you will never have to protect your garden from a bunch of meandering wolves.
Carnivores-
Carnivores are animals belonging to the Order Carnivora. The Order Carnivora
contains 7 families and about 250 species. This group of animals includes dogs
and their relatives, bears, racoons, mustelids, civits, hyenas, aardwolf, and
cats.

Ok, that just hit on my pet peeve. Dogs are NOT CARNIVORES!!!!!!!!!! They are
omnivores, just like humans. There are very few true carnivores in the animal
world. These include cats, mink, hyenas and a few weird rodent things we don't
have in North America.
As Paul stated, in the wild, a dog/wolf, whatever, will go for the gut of an
animal first. This is for the grasses the herbivore has ingested. Then they
will go for the meaty parts and small bones. This is why we add veggies and
fruits to the animals diet. To make it balanced. A meat diet alone for a dog is
not a balanced diet, therefore, they are not carnivores. Feeding raw is no
different that feeding your family a balanced meal.
