What to do if eaten
Sugar-free yogurt may contain xylitol — if so, treat as an emergency (see Xylitol).
How to serve safely
A spoonful of plain, unsweetened yogurt (Greek works well). Live cultures can aid digestion. Avoid flavored/sugared yogurts and ALWAYS check for xylitol in sugar-free varieties. Skip if your dog is lactose-intolerant.
