Can dogs drink milk
We know that milk is highly nutritious and rich in protein. It is very beneficial to supplement various nutrients. Then we will think about it, can dogs also drink milk, can it help dogs to strengthen their immunity? To answer this question first, it is necessary to distinguish whether the dog is a puppy or an adult dog.
Dogs are generally not recommended to drink milk. Because the puppy's stomach is difficult to digest the lactose in milk, which leads to gastrointestinal discomfort, most dogs are lactose intolerant, so drinking milk is easy to have diarrhea. The puppy is very young, the stomach is fragile, and diarrhea is very troublesome. Dogs are still recommended to drink dog products such as pet milk powder
As the dog ages, the dog's immunity also improves, and the dog's tolerance to lactose has improved compared to when he was a child. You can properly feed your dog some milk, but you need to pay attention to a few points. First, try to choose Shuhua milk and other dog products for your dog to avoid lactose intolerance; second, you can only feed a small amount of milk for the first time. , observe the dog's appearance.
Compared with cow's milk, it is more recommended to feed dog products such as pet goat milk. The main reason why dogs can't drink cow's milk but can drink goat's milk is that the fat structure of goat milk has short carbon chains and unsaturated fatty acids. High content and good emulsification state. The casein structure of goat milk is different from that of cow milk, so goat milk is less prone to allergies and lactose intolerance, and will not cause diarrhea in dogs.
Goat milk contains more than 200 kinds of nutrients and bioactive factors, of which the total content of protein, minerals and various vitamins is higher than that of cow milk, and the natural calcium content of goat milk per 100 grams is twice that of cow milk.
Finally, the fat globules and protein particles of goat milk are only 1/3 of that of cow milk, and the particle size is uniform, so it is easier to be digested and absorbed by dogs. The immunoglobulin content in goat milk is very high, which can effectively eliminate viruses and protect the body from harm.
In addition to drinking goat milk can improve the body's immunity, taking your dog to exercise more can also have a good effect. You can buy some dog toys for your dog, which will not only attract the dog's attention, but also help the dog to increase the amount of exercise.
