Ingredients
5 grams of pet-safe goat’s milk powder
100ml of fresh drinking water

Why these ingredients matter
Goat’s milk powder made specifically for pets is carefully processed to retain nutrients while being gentle on digestion. Using the correct amount of powder ensures your dog receives balanced nutrition without overloading the digestive system.

Equipment
A clean bowl, cup, or jar
A teaspoon or digital scale for accurate measuring
A spoon or small whisk for mixing

Preparation Method

Step 1. Measure 100ml of fresh drinking water and pour it into a clean bowl or jar. The water should be warm, not hot. Warm water helps the powder dissolve smoothly while preserving beneficial enzymes and probiotics.

Step 2. Weigh out 5 grams of goat’s milk powder using a digital scale or a level teaspoon if a scale is not available. Accurate measurement helps maintain the correct concentration for easy digestion.

Step 3. Add the goat’s milk powder to the warm water and stir gently until fully dissolved. Continue mixing until the liquid is smooth and free from clumps.

Step 4. Allow the prepared goat’s milk to cool completely to room temperature before serving. Serving at room temperature helps prevent stomach sensitivity.

How to Serve

The prepared goat’s milk can be served in several ways depending on your dog’s routine and preferences.

It can be offered on its own as a nourishing drink between meals, particularly for dogs that need additional hydration or support.

It can also be poured over dry or wet food as a natural topper, adding moisture, flavour, and digestive support to mealtimes.

Serving Size Guidance

Small dogs should begin with 1 to 2 tablespoons per serving. Medium dogs can be offered up to 50ml, while larger dogs may enjoy up to 100ml per serving.

Goat’s milk is best served two to three times per week and introduced gradually, especially for dogs new to dairy-based supplements.

Storage and Safety

Prepared goat’s milk should be stored in the fridge and used within 24 hours. Any remaining milk after this time should be discarded.

Avoid microwaving prepared goat’s milk, as high heat can damage beneficial nutrients. Always serve at room temperature.

Helpful Tips

If your dog has a sensitive stomach, start with smaller portions and gradually increase the amount over time.

Goat’s milk can be frozen into small portions using ice cube trays and defrosted as needed. This is especially useful during warmer months or for convenient serving.

Always observe your dog’s response when introducing new foods and adjust serving sizes based on their individual needs.
