Sheila....dogs are not mutations of wolves....zoologist reclassified wolves and 
dogs to be the same species in 1993......they noted several valid reasons for 
doing so, the most important one being the fact that a wolf and a dog can breed 
and the ofspring can reproduce as well...not so for horses breeding with 
donkies...or tigers breeding with lions...the off-spring of these unions are 
sterile...and you guys thought I was just another pretty face...any one know 
where I can buy some "wolf kibble"...lol....FB

what wolves eat, it is likely close to 70% protein. Does this cause problems, 
well if it is a wolf we are talking about not likely. Dogs however are 
mutations of the wolf, so it is harder to say. I do advise my clients to 
consider the Adkins diet when thinking about their dog's diet. Mostly protein, 
and then some of the rest of life.

However I am feeding about 24% protein and my dogs look great, with no weight 
problems.

Hi all, I have a question that I have been thinking about. It used to be, 20 or 
30 years ago, that protein levels above the mid 20s in dog foods were cause for 
alarm amongst vets. They said that high levels would lead to kidney disease. 
Today, foods are running much higher levels of protein...some even 42%, and 
yet, I never hear anybody talking about this. Have ideas changed or is it the 
source of the proteins that make a difference? Just curious.
