LONDON, April 20 — Are vegan dogs healthier than their carnivorous counterparts? To find out, British researchers studied the health of 2,536 dogs for one year.

That’s what scientists from the University of Winchester have been trying to find out. To find out if vegan dogs were healthier than their carnivorous counterparts, the authors of the study, published in, surveyed the owners of 2,536 dogs. Volunteers were asked to fill out questionnaires to provide information about their dogs’ diet and health status.

Similarly, the percentage of dogs that experienced health problems during the year was 49 per cent for dogs on a conventional diet, compared to 36 per cent for ‘vegan’ canines. Dogs that were more accustomed to eating raw meat also appeared to be healthier, although this may be due to the fact that the animals in question were on average one year younger.
