    meanwhile in the dog food discussions:

    • My dog likes bell pepers
    • My dog only eats raw racoon meet
    • my dog eats poop

    Dogs, the easiest species to feed

    Edit: they will.also eat all the crumbs and spills from the floor saving time on cleaning

      Dogs have been selectively bred to better handle foods humans eat barring some notable exceptions. Dogs significantly better grain digesting enzyme production than wild candids for example.

      My dog has an iron gut based on what she can happily eat

      That would be pigs but some dogs are actually quite close to that.

          Yup, I heard you got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies’ digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don’t want to go sievin’ through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, “as greedy as a pig”.

            …for the sake of the piggies’ digestion

            yep because they’ll even eat the theeth and any artificial work done to it, but they will poop it out later… and we all know how that turned out for ol’ bobby

      My dog knows the command “help”, which means “oh no I spilled some food on the floor come clean it up”
