    Hi everyone,

    Does anyone give organic probiotic yogurt to their furry friends? Only reason I ask is that poor old meg is getting very windy these days and boy are they silent killers. Bless her it doesn't seem to bother her :) :)

    Done a bit of research and found that yogurt can help calm digestive system, but me being me was wondering if its ok to give it to meg because of her age.

    I think it will be fine , my two have this a couple of times a week , mainly because Lab Sam is a demon for eating things he finds ( think dead things ) and Millie because she likes it :)

    I give it to Harley a few times a week as she has a sensitive belly. It seems to help with her stools and wind ::)

    Thanks everyone,

    A quick update. Started Meg on yogurt last week and what an improvement. We still have a few little incidents but not the kind where you need to wear oxygen mask :) :)

    Her poo is also a lot firmer. So thanks for advice, am glad I started her on it. She has a couple of spoonfuls every other day.

    a suggestion - it might be more cost effective to get a good probiotic powder from the health shop and stir a spoonful into food then you're not paying for organic yoghurt /packaging etc and it keeps for months.

    Thanks Carole. Funnily enough, we meet a nice lady and her dog down the park and she suggested the same thing a few days ago as her dog Sam has it. Got some yesterday and Meg doesn't seem to know it's on her food.
