Dog Foods
"Myths about feeding dogs are almost as numerous as myths about dog behavior. Dogs are omnivorous, but with strong carnivore tendencies. This means that they may choose meat, given a choice, but will also opportunistically supplement their diet with fruits, berries, and herbs. If given a chance dogs will scavenge. While this is a big health problem in cities, it is interesting to note that scavenging garbage is a major mode of support for wolves in some areas of Italy!"
