Should our dogs go vegan?

A proposal making its way through the Los Angeles Animal Services commission could require that all dogs in the city’s public shelters be fed an all-vegan diet.

Supporters say the roughly 336,000 pounds of animal-based dog food in the shelter system accounts for the deaths of more than 20,000 chickens, 10,000 turkeys and 1,000 lambs every year — figures they say have a devastating environmental impact.
