What should dogs eat? Are dogs carnivorous or omnivorous?

In a column for the British newspaper "Daily Mail," British animal nutrition expert Jonathan Self stated that the digestive systems of dogs and gray wolves are actually identical. Therefore, dogs' stomachs should be able to absorb the nutrients from meat, bones, and organs, as well as small amounts of plants.

Are dogs carnivorous or omnivorous?

Dr. Bessent, an American veterinarian, points out that dogs' saliva lacks enzymes to digest starch and cellulose, their teeth are specifically structured for meat consumption, and their gastrointestinal tract is much shorter than that of omnivores. All of these factors prove that dogs are carnivorous animals.

Dog food and grain-free food mainly contain a large amount of carbohydrates (such as corn and beans), which not only disrupts dogs' digestive systems and nutrition but also raises the question: Can dogs really rely on this type of diet for healthy growth throughout their lives?
