Is it okay for a dog to drink milk? or is water the only thing healthy for them to drink?

Milk can upset the bowels...not good for dogs the vets say...water works fine.

my yorkie loves it which is why i am asking ... i have never gave like a bowl of milk but just put a little bit maybe a teaspooon over her food and that is the only way she eats it not when water is on top of it! She hasnt been sick or any thing from it ! i dont do it often b/c i wasnt sure bout dogs and milk so decided to ask first! is it okay or definately none at all???

Why don't you try giving her cottage cheese (or yogurt). . . they are so good for our babies. I give mine a spoonful (Annika of course gets less as she is still tiny) to their morning meals daily
