| I mix a couple tablespoons in w/ her food. If some of the food is covered in yogurt and some isn't - She'll leave the un-yogurted food in the bowl. |

| Yeah so now I have to make sure EVERY piece has yogurt on it or else she'll leave it. If everything is covered she'll even lick the bowl, almost clean. |

Last night since it was Champs birthday, I mixed about two tablespoons
of yougurt with about 2 tsps of penut butter and gave it to him as his
birthday cake. I sang Happy Birthday to him and he kept turning his
head sideways and I couldnt keep a straight face singing. I gave it to
him as a snack before we went to bed. He licked the bowl clean. |

| we freeze fat free yogurt in ice cube trays and give that as a treat. They sell Fat Free plain yogurt, but reading this reminds me I should check out the sugar content (and other additives). |

| ok..you all are making this WAY too hard on yourselves. Why don't you all just buy probiotics. These are the ones I give my dogs . These are tiny, it shouldn't be a problem for your dogs to swallow them. |

Personally, I feed Luna Kiefer because she likes it. It's nice to freeze in her Kong as a healthy treat!  |

I like the idea of freezing the yogurt in ice trays. I will do that.
He seems to settle down pretty good at night after we have our
"midnight snack' before we go to bed. I recently have swithched
him over to two feedings a day, leaving out the lunch one.
Which is pretty nice, cause now when I come home for lunch,
I let him out in the back lot of my property and he runs for about
30 minutes, chasing birds, squirrels, ect ..... So now we have
extra time together.
I am not sure what Kiefers is or anything about probiotics? I dont
have a whole lot of money so if I can get it from Walmart, that
is just fine with me. |
