Dogs are carnivores.

And mine feel like wolves today. Very little on our deer go to waste.

We do the same. 

I'm not sure they get any happier than dismantling a rib cage.

They love being primitive and there’s no better way to feed them.

I used to have a Finnish Hound and oh boy, he was an eating machine. He finished a whole moose head in a week, including antlers.

I may have posted this in a another thread. Go to mushing.com and read an article called "Rendering the sense of fats". How the dogs were once fed, then advancement in nutrition and thought process, and then back to being a high fat-high protein carnivore for success/performance.

Their diet and our diet along with both of our diet history are remarkably similar.

Almost parallel paths.

That is absolutely correct.

i think i posted it already on a different topic. i have a lil dog, 3kg 14yo. She started having severe health issues including an abscess to her jaw bone. Every single vet told me she wasn't operable and many suggested me to put her down. I started having the same considerations of Scott about how much similar our evolutionary needs are in terms of diet, and we went carnivore together. She is now thriving, it looks like she got back to being a puppy, super energetic, playing around all the time and the jaw abscess she had just self resolved without any trace left. that was a huge blessing. My mental health is hanged on a thin thread and that thread is her i need her to live up to 100yo minimum.
