Can Dogs Eat Feta Cheese?

Many dog owners love to share a bite of their meals with their beloved canine companions. However, when it comes to feta cheese, moderation is key.

While feta cheese is not toxic to dogs, it is important to remember that dogs have different nutritional needs compared to humans.

Feta cheese is high in fat, sodium, and lactose, which can cause digestive upset, obesity, and even pancreatitis in dogs if consumed in excess.

If you want to treat your dog to some cheese, it is best to choose a small quantity of low-fat, lactose-free options specifically formulated for dogs. And as always, consult with your veterinarian before introducing any new foods into your dog's diet
