If you feed your pet dog a diet consisting of only cuts of lean meat, chances are he would have severe nutritional problems.

Commercial pet food is a multi-billion-dollar industry that seems to grow in sales each year that goes by. What is happening here, are more animals being adopted or are more pet owners being sold on the idea that dogs absolutely must eat dog food in order to be healthy?

Just a few years ago, feeding your dog was so much simpler compared to today's nutritional advice. I remember when my parent's dog ate whatever the whole family would eat, including dessert! In addition to table scraps, he also ate commercial dog food. That dog had a happy life and lived well into his mid-teens without contracting any serious illness or disease.
