Question

Kayla
Hi, my puppy is crazy about vanilla yoghurt. I feed  her a small Vitamin C enriched cup a day. Is this OK?

Answer
Hi Peter,
Your puppy is adorable! I would limit the yogurt to say 1/4 of a cup daily and not vanilla as that will have sugar in it. Just plain, high fat yogurt, and not more than 1/4 cup. I'm assuming you're using a good quality puppy food, so you want to make sure you don't go overboard on calcium.  There are loads of treats you can safely give to a puppy without upsetting the nutritional applecart too much - but a cup of yogurt a day is a lot for a pup.

All the best, Catherine
