Teddy has two of these sheep now. But this is him first playing with it.

In Zoroastrianism, the dog is regarded as an especially beneficent, clean and righteous creature, which must be fed and taken care of. The dog is praised for the useful work it performs in the household, but it is also seen as having special spiritual virtues.

A dog’s gaze is considered to be purifying and to drive off daevas (demons)

Reddit wants me to believe that Pedigree and other mainstream WSAVA compliant brands are the only possible foods to feed your dog.

All other foods will kill your dog. Raw will kill your dog. Homemade will kill your dog.

My shiba’s been on dehydrated turkey barley for 5 years and in the prime of her health. The problem is that the company that makes her food suddenly shut down and she refuses to eat kibble.

Anyone have any recommendations for non-kibble dog food for a picky dog?
