As found on http://www.ypte.org.uk/animal/panda-giant-/157, Pandas spend 2/3 of their life eating because they are ill equipped to properly digest the bamboo they favor. They are, natural carnivores, who are too slow to catch prey and have "chosen" to eat bamboo instead, making them functional vegetarians, rather than obligate vegetarians.

Dogs are mainly carnivores, means they need meat in their diet. Another answer: Dogs do not have the digestive system required to live on a vegetarian diet. They neither have the four chambered stomach of a cow nor do they have the large digestive area in their large intestine like a horse. Instead they have a relatively small digestive system. They could not live on a vegetarian diet.
