Question:

: Is it alright to feed my JR Chief milk. If so how offen should he be given milk. He gets Pal optimum dog roll once a day, and as much meaty bite biscuits as he wants - he only eats when he's hungry, plus veges every now and then.
: My partner thinks he should be getting regular helpings of milk, but I've heard that he should be getting enough calcuim in his regular diet and that too much calcuim could be damaging. Please advise.

I am not familar with the food you are feeding but if it is a high quality food, then there is not any need to feed milk or added calcium. The only time I suppliment Calcium is after a bitch whelps and it isn't necessary any other time.
Sorry I just don't advise giving milk JMHO
