Best Answer

Dogs are carnivores and meat provides all the nutrients a dog needs. Dogs are descendent from wolves. However, through the many centuries living with humans, dogs became very adaptable and learned to scavenge for food, so their stomachs can deal a wide range of vegetable matter and other foods. Plants and vegetables can be used as part of a dog's diet, but they aren't a necessity.
