Back to the questions: Do you arm yourself with research and go to the vet to educate him/her? Do you politely say that you've done the research and are convinced that a vegan diet is perfectly appropriate for most dogs and has the added bonus of not putting you in a position where you're supporting the needless slaughter of other animals?

As much as I don't like responding to comments that are hostile, they also demonstrate a lack of understanding/education/knowledge on the part of the commenter that perhaps, if remedied, might result in a different opinion. Such is the case with Spencer R's comment from my brief post recommending The Botany of Desire.

The “Crow Down” is a “hunting contest” where both adults and children slaughter as many crows as they possibly can in two days. On the website he reminisces fondly about his “best hunt,” where he killed 3,125 crows in 9 days, bringing to mind the days when people slaughtered seemingly endless flocks of passenger pigeons and herds of buffalo.

I’m familiar with the slaughter of herons, egrets, and other pretty birds for their feathers, but I didn’t know that shorebirds were also targets and that the gunning trade greatly contributed to the demise of the Eskimo Curlew.

Finding that decades of consumer education hasn’t slowed meat-industry growth or ecodestruction and that universities powerfully influence what people eat, RPA has been demanding that the colleges of agriculture at our LGUs stop forking over billions of dollars worth of training, research, and public relations to the meat industry.

I say "if you know someone" because this isn't a book I'd recommend to vegans for their vegan education efforts. I simply don't understand the core message of this book--that eating animals can be wrong for one person, yet that same person supports the unnecessary slaughter of animals as long as it's done in a certain way.

If we are not justified in eating mackerel ourselves, are we not also morally obligated to stop the slaughter brought on by the tuna? When even educated, intelligent people make elementary mistakes, there is no hope. Such an obligation would make us the protectors of all species, and the destroyers of every ecosystem on earth.

He is letting his attachment to eating animals and his attachment to his constituents profiting from their slaughter cloud his decision making. Let's deconstruct: Paragraph #1: Americans don't know where their food comes from and what it takes to produce it. Methinks it is Scott who is letting his emotions get the best of him.
