My best friend (Maverick my puppy) was given then chance to trial a brand new type of Dog Food. It is called Yoghurt Plus and as most fanatical mothers of new dogs know, there are some great components within natural yoghurt that can really help the growth of your puppy - well these guys have added that to dry food.

I kept a journal of how the new food went down with Mr Maverick.

Day One

Mr Maverick didn't know what hit him. He doesn't generally like dry food (kibble) although on this occasion he inhaled the food - I mixed it with another dry food to see how it would go and it went well. I thought this was just fantastic - a little suspicious but fantastic.

Day Two

Same thing again although starting to realise that my precious little boy was getting a bit of an upset stomach and having lots of wind! But on the other hand - I started to realised that he body/skin didn't smell as much as it used to. This was something I had always wanted to resolved and seeing as though I am unable to wash him often (as it ruins their coat) I was pleased.

Week Later

A week had past and Maverick stomach was still upset. I tried mixing the food with another brand to see if this would change things and it did. I just realised that the ORGINIAL food he was eating was giving him the wind and NOT the Yoghurt Plus.

Two Weeks Later

I took Maverick to the vet for a check-up and discussed the food changing regime and was reminded that changing food suddenly can upset a dogs tummy. Well now everything was making sense.

After many days of trialing Yoghurt Plus I have now settled into giving it to Maverick for Breakfast. I thought it was appropriate as it was "yoghurt" to let him have it for breakfast everyday.

Downside? He now doesn't want to eat the boring dry food that I used to give him.

Rating: 4/5 - I say give it a go.

   You know what annoys me is that my dog is sooo fussy and I'd like to try different brands but you have to committ to large bag. I know that at pet barn you can buy the premium bags try it out and then return it if your dog doesn't like it. I did it once and I felt so bad what a waste of the bag you know. I wish they sold or offered sample packs!!
