Goat milk
Goat milk is the milk produced by goats, and it is often considered a nutritious alternative to cow’s milk for dogs.
Why we feed?
Goat milk contains vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and fatty acids that can benefit a dog’s health, particularly for those who are sensitive to cow’s milk. It is more easily digestible due to its lower lactose content and smaller fat globules.

How to feed?
You can add a small amount of goat milk to your dog’s regular food as a nutritional topper. Goat milk can be frozen into cubes or mixed with other dog-friendly ingredients to create healthy, refreshing treats. Both plain raw goat milk and fermented (such as kefir) are used for their probiotic benefits.
Common Uses?
Goat milk is often used to improve digestion, particularly in dogs with sensitive stomachs or those recovering from illness. Raw or fermented goat milk can be added to a dog's diet to improve gut health through its probiotics, helping with conditions like diarrhea or inflammatory bowel disease. Goat milk can be a supplemental food for puppies that have trouble digesting solid foods or are orphaned, though it should not replace a balanced puppy formula
Additional info?
Be sure to purchase your goat’s milk raw. Once again, any processing will remove bioavailable nutrients and kill the lactase. Raw goat milk can be bought from local pet food stores or farmers.
