Can dogs eat cheese? Symptoms of lactose Intolerance

Not all dogs are lactose intolerant, so some dogs can enjoy the deliciousness of cheese!

However, if a dog has lactose intolerance, it cannot produce enough lactase, so it cannot break down the sugars in dairy products. Don't think that fresh milk has lactase, because high-temperature pasteurization will destroy lactase.

Can I eat low-fat, low-lactose cheese?

Although cheese generally has lower lactose content than milk, such as cheddar, parmesan, and Swiss cheese, they all have low lactose levels.

But if the dog has "lactose intolerance," it's best not to give it any, because even a small amount of lactose can make the dog very uncomfortable.

Symptoms of "lactose intolerance":

Diarrhea, bloating, gas, vomiting, loss of appetite

Your dog loves cheese the most?? Your dog loves cheese the most?? Not all dogs have "lactose intolerance," so some dogs can enjoy the deliciousness of cheese.

Not all pets have "lactose intolerance," so some dogs can enjoy the deliciousness of cheese.
However, you shouldn't give your dog just any cheese!

What you need to be aware of is:

Matured moldy cheese
For example, goat cheese and blue cheese are absolutely unsuitable because they are high in fat and salt, and they may also contain mycotoxins that can poison dogs.

Processed cheese, cheese slices, cheese sauce
All of the above are highly processed, and during the processing, many ingredients that may not be suitable for dogs are added.

Aged hard cheese
These cheeses have particularly high salt content.

Non-low-fat cheese
Cheese has a high fat content, so if you have to choose, go for low-fat options like fresh buffalo cheese, white soft cheese, and soft goat cheese.

Smoked cheese
The smoking process can produce carcinogenic substances.

Remember to check the label for color additives and "glutamic acid," which is MSG.Because it can affect the dog's brain response and cause other health issues.

【Less is more】
Even if your dog eats cheese, eating too much can still affect their stomach.If it affects their main meals, that's not good. You'll end up with a headache!
