Question
Can my puppy have milk and or soy protien?

Thank you.

Answer
I would stay away from all soy products with your pup. Yes, you will see differing opinions on this but from all of my reading and talking with experts, soy is very difficult for dogs to digest and can cause some real problems down the road with eyes, infections, endrocrine systems etc. This doesn't happen with every dog, mind you, but the fact that it is so hard to digest for pups and dogs says it all. Use goats milk with soft kibble if you must use milk products at all, ok?
SOY AND DOGS DO NOT MIX SO PLEASE STEER CLEAR OF THIS SITUATION. Hope this helps.
