| Aug 4, 2015 at 10:40 | comment | added | jawo | Zombieflesh is Humanflesh. Due the dog isn't in danger getting infected by the zombivirus, the Humanflesh is a legit food for the dog. One could mention ethical climax, but ,.. uh,... this is an emergency. However, even dogs shouldn't eat rotten flesh, so you should look out for fresh zombies to feed your dog. | |

| May 16, 2015 at 14:57 | comment | added | user2781 | This reminds me of some of the most sage advice I've heard: never fight zombies with something you can't defeat yourself. | |

| May 14, 2015 at 8:27 | comment | added | Chris H | @ckersch, not if resupply of stores breaks down before the zombies arrive and kill everyone. If long-distance transport shuts down (in panic/to try to contain things) there won't be any food left in the stores, including dog food. | |

| May 14, 2015 at 2:43 | comment | added | PotatoEngineer | @DavidEugenePeterson, consider the alternative: no dogs, no extra carrying capacity, and much less of a margin of survival. If one dog dies, then you redistribute the loads, and decide whether to carry heavier packs or go without something. You should, of course, have a couple of spares of vital items, so that you can trade or lose one and not be completely screwed. After all, you've got all that extra carrying capacity. | |
| May 13, 2015 at 22:11 | comment | added | user9584 | If a dog is killed with your gear on it, what would be the alternative to carrying around that extra weight with -1 party? I imagine the time it would take to find and train another dog would be very time consuming? | |
| May 13, 2015 at 19:48 | comment | added | ckersch | I'm not sure, but I don't imagine they'd have to. In the wake of a zombie apocalypse, abandoned homes and stores should have enough salvageable human and pet food to feed a group of dogs. Plus, depending on how long post-apocalypse this is, there will be an assortment of other creatures (such as feral cats, dogs, and rats) that can be hunted for food. | |
