Because my dog, Bear, is a diabetic he MUST eat twice a day. He wasn't used to eating breakfast so I had to try something to get him to eat. The vet said to try a teaspoon of cottage cheese. It worked.

I know that most dogs won't tolerate a lot of dairy, but a little won't hurt them. I often use a low-fat grated cheese on the dogs' food to encourage them to dig in. Just a sprinkle works.

Milk will cause diarhea and I imagine too much cheese would cause a lot of gas.
