Greek yogurt is simply regular yogurt that has been strained. As the liquid is strained out, the yogurt ends up with more protein per given volume since most of the protein stays with the yogurt part instead of staining out with the liquid. If you have organic yogurt but want the Greek kind instead, you can simply strain it for a while. A coffee filter lined strainer or colander works just fine. Or lined with cheese cloth works well too. The longer it is strained the firmer it becomes. When strained long enough, especially if a weight is placed on top, after a while it becomes something called yogurt cheese. It ends up with a cream cheese consistency and can be used just like cream cheese. Both kinds, organic and Greek yogurt, are healthy. Just make sure that any kind yogurt has active yogurt cultures listed. If it does not, it’s not really yogurt anymore and you wont get the yogurt culture benefits.
The amount of time it will take a dog to warm up to you will depend on the dog, you, and your relationship with each other, and may also be affected by factors like age, temperament, past experiences and your structure or routine. Every dog’s adjustment period will look different, but in some cases, it takes between three weeks and three months for a dog to become comfortable in a new home. Some dogs may take longer to come out of their shells, and that’s okay too, every dog will have different needs.
The initial preparation of either type is the same: full fat milk and live cultures. You can easily find recipes to make your own yogurt. The difference between a regular yogurt and Greek yogurt is one extra step: Greek yogurt is strained to remove far more of the liquid in the yogurt. Greek yogurt has substantially more protein, less sugar, and less sodium than regular yogurt, but also somewhat less calcium. Amounts of fat vary; you can get a low fat or nonfat yogurt of either kind.
