Benefits of Yogurt for Dogs
Know the benefits of yogurt for dogs? Yogurt is an easy way to provide probiotics for dogs, promoting healthy dog digestion, eliminating some unhealthy bacteria and providing healthy bacteria and more...
Yogurt is an ancient wonder food which is strongly antibacterial and anticancer. Yogurt contains lots of “friendly” or beneficial bacteria, probiotics , which keep the digestive tract working well. Use yogurt for healthy dog treats and to prevent common infections. Especially if your dog has recently been given antibiotics, yogurt can help to restore the healthy bacteria in his stomach and intestines. Such a simple solution, but oh, so effective! Yogurt has been found to fight such nasty germs as Salmonella typhimurium and Staphyloccus aureus.
Yogurt Coating
for Homemade Dog Treats
For our special occasion treats, we sometimes use a yogurt coating instead of sweeter sugary candy coatings. The benefits of yogurt include a boost to immunity and it is high in calcium (so use it sparingly with dogs). Commercial yogurt coating also contains sugar, another reason to use it lightly when using it as an icing or frosting for dog treats.

Since dogs do not have teeth that are as sensitive to sugar as ours, this is probably OK once in awhile. It is fairly easy to use; however you should only melt what you expect to completely use. It is harder to work with when reheated, as it tends to clump together when reheated.To be on the safe side, it is best to limit sugar for your dog to occasional use and serve your pet more nutritious ingredients for everyday treats!
Yogurt as a Dog Supplement
An easy way for your dog to get the benefits of using yogurt--put a tablespoon of plain yogurt on top of your dog's food each day. I often do this with Skipper, my miniature schnauzer. And she loves it!There are times when probiotics or yogurt supplements should be given to your dog daily--for digestive upsets, diarrhea, deworming, after giving birth and during times of stress. This is a totally natural and very healthy way to help your favorite dog!
