C4D- So well said!

SkeptVet- If you look through this site some more, you will see the countless people who have come on here seeking out other peoples advice because their regular vet’s have flat out admitted to them that they do NOT in fact have a lot of training in nutrition and can not help them with their dietary questions.

Do I think the average person knows more than the average vet? No…they probably know about the same about dog nutrition. My vet is the same way. She does not push the “vet recommended” foods on me thank god, but she has no clue what I’m talking about when I bring up majority of the foods I feed or want to feed.

That being said, even holistic vet’s can have their own agenda. I spoke with one who during the phone consultation started pushing acupuncture on me when I called to ask about titering for my dog. I was just as upset about that as I was when a vet tech who had never examed my dog ever told me he would have to go on a prescription diet from the information I gave her in our phone consulation.
