If they are feeding the dog special food....that means they likely researched what was the best one for their dog and are aware of the ingredients.
They certainly didn't spend more $$ on dogfood so their supposed "friend" would go about slowly poisoning their dog while they were away. How hard is it to just feed their dog like they instructed you to?

Well obviously I'm friends "enough" with them to trust me with their spoiled rotten dog which is just a substitute for a kid.
Well, you made fools of them for their trust, now didn't you? Are you proud?

Yawn, come on Rex, you can do better than that. You're a dog lover too, right? Opinions?

Royal Canin + fish oil vitamins (tablets) + some other treats they left in ziplocs (don't know the name of those).

I'm gonna guess that the OP thinks any food not named Ol' Roy is "fancy" dog food

They love boiled seafood even more.

I see nothing wrong with it. Feed the dog some chocolate candy as well. Also don't take the dog outside to use the restroom, let it go wherever it pleases. Make sure to keep the toilet seat raised so it can drink when it's parched or whenever it wants. Let me know if you need anymore tips bud.

What type of Royal Canin food? What does it say on the bag? This is kind of important.

quote:
While large brands sold in veterinarian's offices may be marketed as premium, top of the line foods, one look at the ingredients tells a different story. These formulas, made by large conglmorate food manufacturers, derive far more protein from grains or grain by-product sources such as corn gluten meal, brewer's rice, and wheat, than from healthy meat sources.
These brands, and so many like them found in grocery stores, also contain poultry by-product, which consists of the leftovers unfit for human consumption, like feet, beaks, undeveloped eggs, and intestines; everything BUT clean meat. It's a cheap, low quality source of protein that is far less digestible than clean chicken meal. These ingredients are a tell-tale sign of poor quality food and are no different than discount brands at the grocery store. Although the formulas may contain a few specialized ingredients to position them as a special diet for health conditions such as joint support, urinary tract health, etc., a better way to treat these conditions is with a truly healthy food and one or more daily supplements.

Well for one that dog food they left definitely doesn't have onions in it.

From the same article you posted...
Cheeseburgers and pizza don't really meet #1 do they?
quote:
Most holistically trained veterinarians encourage the practice of feeding "people food" to our pets. Healthy leftovers are an excellent supplement to your companion's regular fare."There are only two rules with people food for pets:
1) It must be healthy for them: meat, steamed and finely chopped veggies & fruits, baked sweet potato, rice, oatmeal; no junk food; and
2) If you give them some of what you are eating, remember to feed less of their own food so that they don't put on extra pounds."
It's important to note that not all healthy foods for us are healthy for our pets: onions, grapes and raisins can all be toxic to dogs and cats. If you're not positive it's safe, don't feed it.

That's a very high protein, chicken based food. The fish oil is likely for skin allergies. Just because the dog is happy eating pizza doesn't mean it's good for it. Especially a puppy not used to that type of food. Not to mention that they might not want to introduce table food so that it doesn't create bad habits. What you're doing isn't going to kill it but it's still shitty.

Give this shite up.... You posted this hoping to get a rise and your jollies off, but the truth is you really are a fricking idiot loser and I actually don't believe you have any friends that would ever leave their dog with you. Or any friends in general
