This probably applies to other animals kept as pets, but right now I'll talk about dogs.

I think dogs deserve to eat real, varied food instead of the same industrial feed every single day. Have you noticed how they always seek "human" food, even when they might already have food in their bowl? I think they just don't want to eat the same processed crap everyday! They want real food! I think the fact that they would do anything for a miserable pizza border is proof enough.

That's it, I just felt like I needed to tell someone. Thanks for reading, and apologies if the post sounds angry or something, remaking the post now would be too much work 😩

    I'm not a dog owner so i don't know if it's my business to even speak on this but it is true that historically dogs were usually fed scraps and leftovers from human meals, so technically that should be totally fine, however bear in mind that the nature of modern food is much different from what people used to eat in pre-industrial times. So unless your diet is that of a person from the middle ages i don't think it's a good idea to share your food with your dog, at least not indiscriminately. I'm sure that some things are ok, like meat that is not too seasoned or processed, but with most other things you probably want to be careful and get an expert opinion whether it's ok for your pet. Pizza in particular seems like not a great idea but idk.
