OZZY GURL! You took the words out of my mouth FOR real! Dogs and Kitties are not mountian lions and Wolfs that live in the wild and can tend to themselfs anymore. Humans have domesticated them to the extreme. By feeding scraps to an animal you risk giving them tummy troubles not to mention worms that can basically eat away at there insides. Not altering an animal and allowing them to run free and mate is why thousands of animals here in my state every year have to die. Over-population is a terrible thing where I live and daily just in my town of 3500 folks they kill 200 a day! When a dog is a yard dog so to speak without any medical care they have fleas and ticks and normally end up with lime....
Which makes them bleed to extreme and become anemic.
I always like to say, a dog without the proper care has a slow death sentance waiting to happen. domesticated creatures are not like the wild ones and with heartworms and mounds and mounds of other things these PETS need to be taken care of properly to live out there life in full. In my area, several folks tend to think as your parents thought about animals. The old way, that is why these animals are running around town with conditions that can be passed on to humans and now humans are getting sick.
