Yogurt dog treats are a natural way that can help boost your dog’s good bacteria and keep the bad bacteria that causes your dog to get a yeast infection, at bay. It is very common for a yeast infection to affect your dog’s ears, especially if your dog has floppy or hairy ears, thanks to moisture. Yeast infections can occur anywhere on a dog. Here are the 10 signs your dog has a yeast infection.

Yogurt is a great inexpensive natural home remedy to help cure yeast infections. Yogurt contains lactobacillus acidophilus, which is a probiotic that helps boost our dog’s immune system and help put the good bacteria into your dog’s body.  As yeast infections generally start in the dog’s gut, one of the first steps in treating a yeast infection is to look at your dogs diet. An anti-yeast diet is recommended to help treat yeast infections in dogs and yogurt is a great way to get started.

Benefits Of Yogurt Dog Treats

Giving your dog yogurt dog treats, is a natural way of ensuring they are getting an excellent source of calcium, especially if you have a senior dog or a puppy as yogurt helps strengthen their bones. However, like all treats, you have to make sure you don’t overfeed your dog the daily amount. I recommended no more than 1 tablespoon.

It helps improve certain gastrointestinal conditions such as yeast infections, inflamed bowel, bacterial overgrowth, constipation, irritable bowel and diarrhea. This works the same on us humans.  Other benefits of yogurt:

• Inexpensive, great source of protein (100% human safe)

• Changes the micro-flora of your dog’s gut (in a good way)
• Keeps your dog cool in the summer

When giving our dog yogurt, you want to ensure it is plain, low or nonfat. These types of yogurts will benefit our dog the most. Yogurt is an excellent natural source of calcium for our dogs and can provide digestive benefits – It can even help your dog stay full for longer. Avoid any yogurts that contain flavors, sugar, and artificial sweeteners such as ‘xylitol’.

If this is the first time you are thinking of making yogurt dog treats, then start off with giving your dog a small amount. Don’t go crazy, even if they start begging for more. This prevents any stomach upsets. Take it slow, and you can increase the amount gradually every three days.
