Amanda Seyfried: 'I need to be needed'

Amanda Seyfried has said that she needs her dog's companionship more than her dog needs her.

The Dear John star also admitted that she is on a raw food diet.

Seyfried told Global Grind: "Most of the time I just want to go home and throw the dog a stick. Can anything be more obvious than throwing a stick? I need to be needed. I understand that the need is never with the dog."

She added: "I'm on a raw-food diet. It's intense. And sort of awful. Yesterday for lunch? Spinach. Just spinach. Spinach and some seeds."

Seyfried recently left LA after living in the city for six years. On the subject she said: "I did my job out here. I made the contacts and did the work I had to do. But I came here at eighteen. I'm out of here at twenty-four, and I feel lucky it wasn't longer."
