Yoghurt????

[Dakota Rose]

Help!!!!! Floopy has got the taste of Natural Yoghurt is this okay to give him in moderation? At the moment he's running around with the pot stuck on his nose

Yes it will do him good, mine love yoghurt.

Yup - Honey regularly has a frozen yoghurt cube in her Kong.....

Live youghurt on their food can kill nasty bacteria in their poor tummys.

Cheers Guys for the help. I did think it would be okay since its natural, but thought I would ask anyway. Maybe if I start giving him it on a regular basis it'll kill his desire for chocolate. He doesnt get any at all but it doesnt stop him mooching for it.

Nt sure about that, but live yogurt definitely help to keep the good bacteria in the gut alive and well, in dogs and humans.

I always give Zack the empty yoghurt pot... I like seeing him come back to me with yoghurt all over his face

Mine loves yoghurt mixed with tinned tuna, stuffed into the kong's, then frozen...keeps her entertained for a good 1/2 hour

Yuck, that sounds revolting

I keep trying him with all sorts of different things that can be used as treats the latest being Grapes, which he will eat, as long as I squish them first:005: We also gave him a bone from spare ribs we had made, and he absolutely devoured it, which was unusual coz we've tried him with bones before and he wasnt interested. So if any of you guys have any other tasty ideas we can try out please let me know.

Eek!  I don't want to worry you, but grapes can be very toxic to dogs - perhaps you could find something else to tempt him?

I don't want to sound like a party-pooper, but cooked bones aren't good either - they can splinter and cause damage to a dogs digestive tract

My lot love this too - altho best they eat it outside or on lino etc - my lot are a messy bunch

Please take note and don't feed grapes or cooked bones

If you haven't got a kong I would recommend you get one as you can stuff them with loads of good treats that keep them entertained for ages

Off to the pet store today then. No more grapes or cooked bones for the Floopster, will he ever forgive me.
