Hi

I am interested in trying home cooking for Lacey. She is a very picky eater when it comes to kibble.
I've been reading a lot about home cooking for our pets and adding calcium and other supplements to the home cooked meals for the right calcium to phosphorus ratio. My question is since a cup of yogurt is about 350mg of calcium, can yogurt be added (in the right proportion obviously) into the meal instead of powdered calcium? That way we are adding the probiotics as well. (And Lacey loves yogurt)

I think at least one recipe I came across called for a pound of yogurt per pound of meat.

Any thoughts?

thanks for all your replies!

I did order the animal essentials calcium. I guess it does make sense that if yogurt has phosphorus in it as well, the calcium would cancel the phosphorus so that they would need additional calcium anyway.
