Hello Vicki,
I totally agree with you, carnivores and obligate carnivores need meat, meat and more meat.
However, I've learned to accept pet parents who do feed some vegetables but still feed a balanced, enzyme-rich meat / organ meat diet with meaty bones... sure is better than feeding sugar and starch.
What's unfortunate are vets who say dogs are omnivores and thrive on a starch diet... gives them an excuse to sell garbage Hill's Prescription Diet and Science Diet.
Sadly, the Purina website even has pages "Why is corn good for my dog?" and "The Power of Grain"... many pet parents buy into that.
Then there's vets [even Dr. Karen Becker is in this camp] who wrongly say wolves eat the stomach contents of their herbivore prey [nothing could be further from the truth] and therefore need some veggies and grains.
All these can certainly be passionate topics... instead of being confrontational with so many pet parents who are 100% wrong about diets, vaccinations and neurotoxic, carcinogenic flea / heartworm chemical poisons, I simply say my peace, feel sorry for their pets and move on...
