In keeping with the site, it's also strictly noncommercial :o) The author Euan Fingal has offered up a free ebook (pdf) to try to help us understand how we might improve our well-being and that of our domestic animals in general, but especially that of our canine companions. The book brings together ample unbiased natural sciences evidence, and the experiences of many naturally oriented caregivers, to clear a convincing swath through the propaganda surrounding well-being, and the misguided understandings it fosters. To learn more about the book, and to download it, see the journal entry: "Ol' Shep's Well-being: A Natural Perspective" http://www.achinook.com/journal/2009/6/18/ol-sheps-well-being-a-natural-perspective.html What the book basically establishes relative to diet (among other aspects of well-being) is that: What it all comes down to is that to deny that a natural species appropriate diet is a necessary component for natural, optimal well-being, is to deny nature—i.e. the evolution of a species, and its optimal, natural diet [in the true scientific sense].

The "why" is that we have crossed the line between science and prolific industry propaganda. Since the 1950s vast sums of money have been poured into shaping public perception because the profits are enormous. Not to mention that “we the people” have a tendency towards anthropomorphism, and convenience is a driving force. For unbiased scientific information see the "Ol' Shep's Plight: Diet" article at: http://achinook.squarespace.com/ There is also a "lighter" fabricated "Dr. P. Kibble Interview" :o) My best to you and yours, Lee C There is a lot of confusion about a species appropriate diet for dogs.
