None of my dogs have been intolerant to yoghurt but my eldest one always had dire rear with milk but she has no problem whatsoever with goats milk
Minds probably bit slow this morning but not sure what the confusion is about yoghurt, sorry???

Hi Christine
no confusion I don't think
....some of us recently read the piece about yogurt and stomach acid taken from
Journal of Small Animal Practice Vol. 35 I posted the relevant quote because it is interesting and quite hard to find, but many of us feed/have fed yogurt anyway because it is nutritious and easily digested for those dogs who are not lactose intolerant.
