By nature, all puppies have evolved as carnivores, biologically adapted for a diet rich and varied in fresh meat with smaller amounts of vegetables and fruit.
The gray wolf is the ancestor to all dogs. While years of breeding have produced hundreds of "different-looking wolves" the internal workings of modern dogs and their wolf cousins remain unchanged, so it's no surprise that their dietary needs remain the same too.
