My dogs made ME vegan!

"Seeing my dogs thrive I realised my own diet needed looking at. That's when I went vegan. So it wasn't me making my dogs vegan, they made me!"

Vegan Cocker Spaniel LOVES Give A Dog A bean

Oh how we LOVE Sally's story that she so kindly has shared with us about her journey and love for her Cocker Spaniel Jessie:

"Brief story about myself and my vegan dogs.

In 2002 maybe, I was so sick of my dogs being poorly, getting cancer, dying young..around 11 to 13, I decided to try different foods.

I tried BARF, bones from the butcher which was horrible as I stopped eating animals in 1986 ! But I tried them as ' they are carnivores' lol.

They soon showed how awful that diet was, dull coat, unhappy, lethargic, poor bowels. I stopped that and tried human grade meat, eggs n grains.

A slight improvement but still not good. Then I came across a brand called Happy Dog. Now V Dog.

They thrived, their coats shined, they were happy, energetic and.... They loved it. 

Seeing them thrive I realised my own diet needed looking at. Though I'd not eaten animals, for many years it finally dawned on me the horrors of the dairy industry. Thats when I went vegan.

So it wasn't me making my dogs vegan, they made me ! 

I now share my life with a 9 year old, sure shes more like 9 months old, rescue cocker spaniel who absolutely loves your just be kind foods. 

I used to use your recipes but she's mad for the trays. I think wrapped around little finger springs to mind. 😀

Thanks for your time and creating a fantastic place to help our furry kids eat healthy."

Sally and Jessie. 🐾

Sally's heartwarming story echoes that of Dr Arielle who went vegan herself to find the perfect food for her own adored Ruff in 2019!
Listen to her explaining it on Jeremy Vine show in 2023 when invited to appear live with Ruff to show the nation just how much he LOVES his food!

When nutrition is done right, you don’t necessarily notice it working — you just notice your dog thriving. No noise, no stress, no vet appointments. To benefit our environment and farmed animals too is a massive bonus!
