Dogs have developed alongside people for like 10000 years, they are omnivores at this point.
yea..but kibble hasn't been around for that long. Obviously they can handle it, many dogs live long and happy lives on nothing but kibble from birth. Just wondernig if that's what's best for the dog. Because while they me be omnivores out of necessity, they aren't meant to be

You know wolves are omnivores right?
They eat berries, some grasses, and some wild veg as well.
Not huge amounts, but they seek these things and eat them for a reason Id bet.

What you don't see is that carnivores get the nutrients herbivores eat. Even if the dog is no longer hunting or eating raw meat, they still need those nutrients the herbivores did eat.

What does that mean?
They weren't "meant" to be a lot of things, but they are. People put way too much thought into what they feed their dogs.
Saying they can't digest grain is just wrong.
