Dogs are omnivores; they can eat both vegetables and meat, though most dogs prefer meat. A dog’s body gets its nutrients from a variety of foods.
Feeding the same single food for a long time easily leads to a lack of some nutrient and illness โ for example, missing trace elements can cause pica. It is best to feed high-quality dog food normally, and occasionally homemade food, ensuring the diet is complete.
