Question

Can cheese kill dogs?

Answer 1

• Unless you are lactose intolerant, milk and cheese are fine and even beneficial for you to consume. Unfortunately, though, cheese and milk are not safe for your dog. Dogs do not have the required enzyme to break down milk sugar. Also, cheese has too much fat in it, which can result in pancreatitis  a deadly condition.

Answer 2

• Yes, cheese can potentially upset your dogs stomach for the reasons mentioned above; a food that is high in fat can lead to diarrhoea in a dog, particularly if theyre not used to eating it, but the presence of lactose in the cheese is the greater threat.
