Can dogs eat cheese?
Generally safe in moderation
Small amounts of plain cheese are usually fine, but it's rich.
What you should know
Cheese is high in fat and some dogs are lactose-sensitive. Avoid cheeses with garlic, herbs or mould (e.g. blue cheese).
Practical guidance
- Use tiny cubes as high-value rewards.
- Avoid blue and flavoured cheeses.
- Stop if you notice digestive upset.
