Can I feed ghee to my dog and Indian sweet made of milk and sugar? She's my first pet and I'm unsure of the food that I can give her. I would like to know about the food items that I can feed her with. Please help me!

I would not as ghee is very fatty and could cause stomach upset. You should be feeding Krystal a balanced diet such as a commercial dog food to make sure she gets the right nutrients as milk, sugar, and fat are all not healthy for dogs. If you're looking for a treat, boiled chicken or steamed broccoli and carrots make a great snack.
