I have never given Emmy any yogurt--just never thought about it, but I am not going to lie, she LOVES cotage cheese. Is that okay too?

Can I just buy the plain yogurt or vanilla--regular store brands or do I have to do the Yo Baby/upscale types. I am in small town Mississippi (SMALL!!!) and don't have a lot of choices without going to another town.

When can I start little Oscar on it? He is 12 weeks and is a little piglet! So far he hasn't met a thing he won't eat, including the carpet, the chair legs, the sofa fabric, etc.

Cottage cheese is good for them also. You dont have to go up scale but go artificial sweetener free. That is bad for them.

one more thing, my daughter's vet told her the pups did not need a lot of things with calcium--more fresh fruits and veggies...what are your thoughts?

diggy4 · 06-11-2007, 06:43 AM

hmmm never heard that.....I suppose too much of anything isnt good. If your giving as treats and with all the added vitamins in yogurts, and yo baby happens to have 6 live cultures I dont think you can go wrong. Everything in moderation as my mom says........lol
ARe you gonna start with the yogurt? Mine went crazy had it from eyes to the floor below them it was actually very cute. Have a wet paper towel or wash rag handy!

Cottage cheese is also good for them - mine just don't like it!! You can do regular store brands, but read the labels as some have live/active cultures and some do not. One more regular brand that most stores carry is the Dannon Activia which at least has one live culture in it.

I hear ya about the carpet, chair legs, etc. Angel was the same way till she lost her baby teeth and adult ones came in. Now she limits herself just to her chew toys, but she'll still eat just about anything I give her!!!

Fruits and veggies are good for them

My babies love green apples (small peeled pieces), watermelon, banana (but not for my liver compromised baby), carrots, celery, green beans, zucchini

What kind of berries do you give them? Is it like a bag of mixed berries?

iloveemmy · 06-11-2007, 10:32 AM

When I go back to the grocery, I will pick up some yogurt. I am sure lil bit, Oscar, will eat it--he is just about through digesting the kitchen sink...

Emmy might be a little more difficult!

Spicy gets a spoonful of cottage cheese on top of his food each night. He LOVES it! I've never given him yogurt but when I eat mine he sure acts like he wants some. I think he gets that carton confused with "his" cottage cheese one.
