The meat-heavy diets of our companion animals have a huge carbon pawprint. While cats are compulsory carnivores, dogs are omnivores and can live -- in fact, thrive -- on a fully plant-based diet. (Case in point: a British border collie named Bramble was fed as a Vegan and lived to 25 -- the Guinness record for dog longevity.) On this episode, Diana Laverdure-Dunetz, a canine nutritionist with a Masters degree in animal science, shares the how's and why's of feeding dogs in ways that will make them happy and healthy without animal products. Diana's book: The Plant-Powered Dog: Unleash the Healing Powers of a Whole Food Plant Based Diet to Help Your Canine Companion Enjoy a Healthier, Longer LifeWebsite: Plant-Powered Dog: Vegan Dog NutritionistFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theplantpowereddogIG: https://www.instagram.com/plantpowereddogLearn more about your ad choices.
