Answer 1

It sounds like they were looking for a homemade dog food recipe, and you really didn't try to answer the question. Yes, your answer violated the community guidelines, so therefore your answer was reported and deleted. If you post an answer to a question, your post must try to answer the question to the best of your ability. Here's a link about that from Yahoo:

There's a lot of "stupid" questions on here. You have a choice: to try to answer them seriously or just move past them. Doing anything else opens you up to violation reports and in time, perhaps getting your account suspended. You may want to look over the community guidelines to avoid getting reported in the future:
