Dogs need a lot more protein than humans and this can come in the form of meat or vegetables. It can be healthy for a dog to have a vegetarian diet as long as it is well balanced.

Many experts advise plain meat and rice as a good starter meal for your dog but it is wise to vary an animal’s diet in order for it to be balanced and healthy. Vegetables are a nutritional addition to a meal even for a dog and with any diet changes; it is wise to slowly add them to an animal’s daily meals along with their normal foods while slowly increasing the amount of new food until it is the only part of the diet.
