It's reporting the same, shitty study as the Guardian in the OP.
Which is exactly what I said, but I'd like a body of evidence please, preferably some clinical trials involving some actual dogs over a lengthy period of time.
Not necessarily could just be ignorant. Both my cousin and a next door neighbor (both gp's) have told me that a lot of stuff they are taught at med school is covered in all of 10 minutes.
So it maybe that the GP advised chicken or fish as they weren't fully conversant with a vegetarian diet. 
And yet, his advice worked!Not necessarily could just be ignorant. Both my cousin and a next door neighbor (both gp's) have told me that a lot of stuff they are taught at med school is covered in all of 10 minutes.
Never said it wouldn't work. When a GP prescribes a medication they will prescribe what they know. They will only spend the time looking up something else if the patient is allergic to the medication or one of its ingredients. If the GP isn't familiar with a vegetarian diet they will recommend what they know.
Yes I am, and you're a prime candidate.You are accusing other posters of being agenda laden?
Christ
Yes it is, and you know it is. Perhaps you should think before you post next time.
So you agree a vegetarian diet can be a perfectly healthy one, yes?
The threads you start, you mean?
This is quite funny. It's peak you. You think everyone who listens to professional advice which falls foul of your ideology have been doing so from other ideological sources other than a bloody GP!
Oh, you're an expert on veganism, are you? What are your qualifications in this area? How many peer reviewed papers have you written about vegan diets?The threads you start, you mean?
The ones that are quite literally about my field of science
As a heuristic for diet, it's not a bad start. 'Some meat, not too much, and plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables' is sound advice for most people most of the time. Of course other factors come in, including how much time you have and how much money you have - reality is that most people on the planet are primarily grain eaters. Plus individuals may have various particular issues to do with things like carb intake. Substitute 'dairy' or 'eggs' for 'meat' in that initial formulation and you're fine. Take out that part and things get a bit trickier. If you want to stay healthy on a vegan diet, you need to plan things a bit and you need a little bit of help as 'fresh' alone won't quite cut it. Similarly, if you want to feed dogs a vegan diet, you're going to be reliant on purchasing products that have the appropriate fortifications added.
FOR FUCK'S SAKE. You're going on about fortifications again.
You said that the threads that I start are - and I quote you directly - "quite literally about my field of science."
wtf?
Do I have to remind of the rambling journey your mind has taken all over this thread, or the fact you end up constantly, endlessly and relentlessly repeating yourself about fucking supplements and fortifications?
What have you actually contributed? The square root of fuck all from where I'm sat.
Perhaps I shouldn't post facts in future? lol
What's your advice then, Frank?
One of the links that has been posted in favour of vegan dog food is to the "Just be kind vegan dog food" site which wants to flog you their "Just be kind supplement" to make their vegan recipes fully nutritionally suitable for dogs. This is what their supplement contains
Still certain you don't need supplements to make vegan food suitable for dogs? Because that looks like there are shit loads of supplements needed.
