Ears twitch in anticipation, and the tail swooshes back and forth, hoping for a taste. You can probably see your pup salivating already.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For some dogs, it&#8217;s the same if you&#8217;re eating lettuce, a hamburger, or yogurt. They want what you&#8217;re having. If you&#8217;re like many dog parents, you don&#8217;t mind sharing a nibble, but as a dog owner you want to make sure it&#8217;s safe for them.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what about Greek yogurt for dogs? Or any other&nbsp;<\/span>kind of yogurt,<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for that matter. You know it&#8217;s rich in calcium and protein. You might know it&#8217;s also packed with probiotics, which are the good bacteria that support a <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/pet-parenting\/dog-food-for-sensitive-stomachs\">healthy digestive system<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet, is Greek yogurt safe for dogs? Can they digest lactose?&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good questions. In short, yes, many dogs can eat Greek yogurt as a treat. Plain yogurt can be good for your dog&#8217;s gut but not every dog can digest lactose, so you&#8217;ll want to be careful.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, you&#8217;ll discover the health benefits of Greek yogurt for dogs and what to consider before giving it to your pooch.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>What are the Benefits of Greek Yogurt for Dogs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fun-Feeder_Medium_Teal.jpg\" alt=\"can dogs have greek yogurt\" class=\"wp-image-15220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fun-Feeder_Medium_Teal.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fun-Feeder_Medium_Teal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fun-Feeder_Medium_Teal-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fun-Feeder_Medium_Teal-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s talk gut health.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the benefits of yogurt for your dog&#8217;s health is its probiotic content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You&#8217;ve probably heard how important it is to have a healthy gut and how it helps keep the digestive system balanced. Without a healthy digestive system, your pup can suffer from the dreaded &#8220;GI&#8221; (gastrointestinal) issues of tummy aches, vomiting, and diarrhea.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It turns out, one of the primary ways to have a healthy gut is to keep a mix of &#8220;good&#8221; bacteria in it. A healthy digestive system is a complex network of bacteria and other organisms. High-quality yogurt has active cultures that make up your dog&#8217;s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.msdvetmanual.com\/immune-system\/the-biology-of-the-immune-system\/the-role-of-the-microbiota-in-animals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">microbiome<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A microbiome is personal. It&#8217;s part of your dog&#8217;s DNA and is based on your dog&#8217;s diet, overall health, age, and other factors. No two microbiomes are the same, which is why some dogs have stomachs of steel while others can be intolerant to a new food.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Probiotics are part of a healthy microbiome. They fight &#8220;bad&#8221; bacteria that can find its way into your dog&#8217;s body and even help strengthen your dog&#8217;s immune system. It takes a healthy gut to have a robust immunity! Both regular yogurt and Greek-style yogurt are packed with probiotics.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your dog can digest dairy products, yogurt can be an occasional delicious treat for your dog (<em>Tip: try freezing it in a slow feeder, ice cube tray, or dog puzzle for a cool treat on a hot day!<\/em>). In fact, a spoonful of plain yogurt can help soothe <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/health-wellness\/sharing-medicine-with-your-dog\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">upset tummies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in some dogs You could add a little to your dog&#8217;s kibble. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, just like people, not every dog can handle lactose.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dairy products can upset some tummies and cause inflammation in the body.&nbsp;Before giving your dog yogurt as a treat you need to find out if they can tolerate dairy. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t already know, start by giving your dog a small amount of yogurt to see how they digest it. Note their stool consistency. If they\u2019re not experiencing any tummy pains or diarrhea, it should be safe to feed your dog yogurt.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Are There Possible Dangers of Greek Yogurt for Dogs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4979_Deep-Dish-Sherpa-Bed-in-Frost_Angle-1-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"dog in a dog bed\" class=\"wp-image-17352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4979_Deep-Dish-Sherpa-Bed-in-Frost_Angle-1-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4979_Deep-Dish-Sherpa-Bed-in-Frost_Angle-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4979_Deep-Dish-Sherpa-Bed-in-Frost_Angle-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4979_Deep-Dish-Sherpa-Bed-in-Frost_Angle-1-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many people ask about the best brand of Greek yogurt to feed their dog (should you go low-fat or non-fat?). Yet, like all human foods, there are additives to consider before feeding them to your dog. And since new brands are always emerging, it&#8217;s a good habit to read labels before giving anything to your dog.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if your pup is lactose intolerant, then you won&#8217;t want to feed them yogurt at all, as even a spoonful could make them sick. The side effects of Greek yogurt for dogs with health issues like lactose intolerance include vomiting and diarrhea.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then there are artificial sweeteners and preservatives to consider. These can be downright dangerous. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/dogs\/safe-human-food-for-dogs\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Xylitol <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is a substance found in sugarless gums, some peanut butter, and some yogurt. Even a tiny amount can be toxic to dogs causing liver failure or seizures.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you read the ingredient list on the label, you&#8217;ll see if it lists xylitol and you can avoid giving it to your dog. In general, veterinarians recommend keeping your dog&#8217;s diet free of added sugar.<\/span> Flavored yogurts tend to have a lot of added sugar and added fat content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, a type of yogurt like plain Greek yogurt has no sweetener. If you know your dog can digest dairy products, then it&#8217;s probably safe to give them a spoonful as an occasional dog treat.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Probiotics for Dogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/snoop.jpg\" alt=\"best interactive dog toys\" class=\"wp-image-12827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/snoop.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/snoop-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/snoop-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/snoop-1024x536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Probiotics are necessary for a healthy digestive system. Greek yogurt is a good source of probiotics, it isn&#8217;t the only way to get them.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s because most yogurt has a limited amount of live cultures. If your dog needs more probiotics, you can look for dog food that incorporates probiotics and\/or add probiotic supplements to your dog&#8217;s diet.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do pet parents know if their dog needs more probiotics than what he or she is getting? Your veterinarian is the best resource for an individual treatment plan. Still, if your dog is prone to allergies, <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/health-wellness\/dog-farts-smell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">excessive gas<\/a>, urinary tract infections, or yeast infections, a boost in probiotics could help your pup feel better quicker.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your pup is on antibiotics, a boost of yogurt or other probiotics could be good for your dog if he\/she can handle it. That&#8217;s because antibiotics destroy all bacteria, good and bad, in your dog&#8217;s system, so you&#8217;ll need to replenish it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Changes in routine like moving, travel, and other big shifts can also change your pup&#8217;s gut makeup. Probiotics can support it and help your dog stay well.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Can Dogs Eat Greek Yogurt and Is Yogurt Good for Dogs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/snoop_boston_2022-23-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"what colors do dogs see\" class=\"wp-image-18655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/snoop_boston_2022-23-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/snoop_boston_2022-23-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/snoop_boston_2022-23-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/snoop_boston_2022-23.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, dogs can eat Greek yogurt (in moderation). In general, your dog&#8217;s gut is constantly shifting based on diet, health, and environmental factors. They always need the right mix of good bacteria to stay healthy, so you can let your dog eat Greek yogurt as long as they can tolerate lactose.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your dog can digest dairy, they&#8217;ll be able to enjoy a Greek yogurt treat once in a while.
