Poor animals.

Anyone who thinks dogs or cats are omnivores, much less vegetarians or vegans need serious lessons in canine (and feline) anatomy and physiology).

By the way, Odhinn’s coat looks fabulous.

*Some* people classify dogs as ‘omnivores’ but that’s only true insofar as they’ll cheerfully eat the gut sack of any prey they get hold of.

I’m not sure that really qualifies.

The addition of corn and soy was the downfall of generally good dog health, many years ago.

How many times has anyone seen a wolf or coyote standing in a corn or soy field, smacking its lips with anticipation?

[yeah, *never*...unless rabbits were in the field, too]

Ironically, both of Odhinn’s vets cringe when I mention his raw, bloody meat habit.

They worry it could “hurt” him or “make him sick”.

The stomach acid of a dog can handle rotted carrion, even though, of course, I wouldn’t feed less than fresh.

The whole world has gone wimpy and they want to take the dogs with them.

Pitiful.

Thanks for the compliment...petting him is like stroking fine black satin.
