BUT .... many people swear by goat's milk, even for dogs. Goat's milk has less lactose than cow's milk, and also none of the protein in cow's milk called "alpha S1 casein," which triggers milk allergy in some individuals (humans and dogs).

Tammy Moore Webboard User Reg: 01-14-2010 Posts: 1564 Loc: USA Offline	I have always given my pets goats milk(not every day,not a lot) waaay back to my childhood.I have also had great success feeding it to many orphaned animals. I do not pour it over their raw food or serve close to raw meals out of concern it will buffer acid, that's just been my own logic. Connie what do you think?
