| Raw goat's milk I've been hearing a lot about how good it is for dogs...not the canned or powered, only the raw. Has anyone tried it?

| Mine LUB it! We've tried the raw goat's milk yogurt w/chia seeds & coconut from Steve's Real food, want to try Primal's next.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I wonder why it's said it's particularly good for dogs, do you happen to know? I'm curious...

| I'm interested as well . Pasteurization came about for a reason. Why would raw be better for a dog? Thanks for the info.

| We've also tried The Honest Kitchen Goat's Milk w/Probiotics & Digestive Enzymes, it comes in dehydrated powder form. Just mix & serve! One reason why dogs + raw goat's milk is that they can digest it. Answers Raw Pet Food Company: ADDITIONAL - Raw Goat's Milk The lactose intolerance of many adults often perpetuates this misnomer. From the history referenced above, we know people consumed milk traditionally to maintain health and fight disease during an entire lifetime. The problem of lactose intolerance grew as milk pasteurization increased. Lactose is a milk sugar that requires the enzyme lactase to split it into simple sugars for easy digestion. Raw milk is rich in lactase enzyme, aiding in the digestion of lactose. During pasteurization, heat destroys the lactase enzyme. Many people and pets not producing the lactase enzyme cannot digest pasteurized milk, but can digest raw milk without problems. Goat’s Milk According to the Journal of American Medicine, “Goat milk is the most complete food known.” It contains vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, trace elements, enzymes, protein, and fatty acids all utilized by the body with ease. In fact the body can digest goat’s milk in 20 minutes. Having fat molecules one-fifth the size of those in cow’s milk makes it easily digestible and tolerable to those with compromised digestive systems. http://www.answerspetfood.com/raw-milk.html#benefits Here's another great article: http://www.dogsplendor.com/2013/03/g...aw-goats-milk/

| Yay! So good to hear this discussion. We milked goats three out of the last four years, this spring is year five and I most definitely intend to resume. I can't say enough good things about raw goats milk, lilah should see plenty in her food this year.

| I ended up buying some raw goat's milk for Ian. After it defrosted, I mixed one teaspoon of it with two tablespoons of filtered water, then used about a tablespoon of that mixture in his kibble. He loved it! He threw up, twice within one hour, and I threw it out!
