Dogs are carnivores, although they are not an obligate carnivore like cats. Meat provides most, if not all, the nutrients a dog needs. However, dogs are very adaptable and can scavenge for food, so their stomachs can deal with vegetable matter. Plants and vegetables can be used as part of a dog's diet, but they aren't a necessity.
Dogs can survive on an omnivorous diet, but it does not mean it is the best diet for them. The assumption that dogs are natural omnivores remains to be proven, whereas the truth about dogs being natural carnivores is very well-supported by the evidence available to us.
