I take a relatively simple approach to my pets diet. Basically I won't
give them anything to eat or drink that I wouldn't put in my own mouth.
If I go for a walk or run with my dog I share a water bottle with her,
she doesn't seem to be worried about getting germs off me so it's all
good.
The food I prepare or purchase for them should be nutritious and
something I'm not scared to eat.
Actually it should be nutritious but their digestive systems are made a
lot different than a human one. A dog's digestive system is a lot
shorter with stronger stomach acid and can handle older meat that we
cannot eat.

You just don't put regular gas in a Ferrari Char lol.


You just don't feed a carnivore like a omnivore Steve!


Omnivore? How did peas and carrots get into this thread?
My statement was abut the quality of, not the type of food & water I present
to my pets.
I do find it odd you say that when all the reputable brands of pet food have
recipes with pasta and vegetables in them.
