Why do you want your dog to be a vegetarian? Dogs are omnivores. Some sources even say they are strictly carnivores. I don't know which is more true as there's conflicting studies on it but they are certainly not vegetarians. They should not be forced to live as a vegetarian just because of your food preference. While I do think a dog can survive on just vegetarian foods, they will not thrive on it without a source of animal protein (meat) in their diet. If you cannot handle giving your dog meat, the easiest solution is to go to the petstore and find the best quality kibble that you can afford and feed him that.
