We have a special needs female in foster.  When Emma came into 
our foster program she had recently whelped and weighed 62 lbs.  
As well as good quality kibble she was put on goats milk to help 
build her up.  6 weeks into foster she had gained 8 lbs and we felt 
she could handle a spay.  Emma is still gaining now and getting 
the nicest new coat.  Goats milk has sure helped Emma regain her 
strength and stamina.
