Thank-you! I started giving my Schanuzers small amounts of soft cheese to hide there medications in and they loved it! I am glad to know it’s okay. I also give them a spoon of yogurt with oatmeal daily as there treat after runs or walks.

andrew,
you rock….. thank you so much for all your free information, you are a kind man. keep up the great work, we need you. As for Boris’s dad, I am so sorry for your loss, I lost my maltese a few years ago, his picture sits in a 8×7 frame on the fire place. the memories will never go away, but I promise you, the hurt will lessen. I’ll ask my TY (my maltese) to watch over him.

  Thanks Kathy… I still talk about Noble a lot. My son never met him but knows of his legend very well.

Thanks for the tip! I live in New York City, right near Zabar’s, the biggest source of international cheeses in NYC, and my rottweilers always love the cheese bits I give them. No more camembert for Bruno!

Thanks for all the great info Andrew! After 12 wonderful years of friendship, I lost my best pal to liver failure, and I’m still not over after 2 years! I hope to get another best friend in the future.

Andrew;
Since I’d come across your informative website and tidbits of golden nuggets I stay thankful. Keep up the generous information; it’s a wonderful thing you do for us “ignorant” folk who want to love our “kids” in the best way possible.

Reassuring to know cheese is not harmful. My two Chihuahuas love it (in small doses of course). Mould it round a pill and it’s gone, no probs!!

Our dogs love cheese. They go through their repertoire of tricks when we have some for them. Thanks for the info!

  Mimi, Loran and Rick… great to see you know moderation is the key!

When my precious furbaby had liver cancer, the holistic vet recommended cottage cheese with flaxseed oil (Dr.Budwig diet), which I gave him along with a high Omega-3 diet. Although cancer won in the end, he lived longer than expected.

  Yes, that was great advice from your vet… proof why we should all see holistic vets

People (not all) have an ezyme called lactatate dehydrogenase which is the lactate digesting enzyme. If you have this enzyme, you are not lactose intolerant. This means that not all peple are Lactose intolerant. Although it is true that 85% of dogs do not have the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase

Thanks for the info. I have been using cheese for the couple of months to help train my dog and he just loves it. I have not seen a change in his stool, but I will change to something else to better benefit him. Thanks again.

We just recently lost our almost 11yr old borzoi, his name was boris. Cancer was his grim reeper. WE loved him so very much. It seems so unfair, he was such a wonderful friend and family member.Our hearts are broken. Today, this morning,is the first morning with out him. It ,our home feels so empty.So void of life. A couple of days ago I stumbled across your web site ,with every thing that has been happening with Boris; I cant help but wonder if the food that he ate helped to contribuit to his dismise/cancer. I only write to you today, because; Boris was a cheese-a-holic. His love for cheese is/was legendary,in our home.I /we will miss the way he would get so excited when cheese was present.I also shared with with him a love for cheese.I hope that in Heaven Boris has a unlimited supply of the many kinds of cheeses that he loved. Cancer-Sucks. WE Love you and will always hold your memories dear in our hearts.With all our love your family. Joe&Donna/dad&mom/; Mike; and your little sister Nellie Cancer-Sucks

have been doing that for years and small amount is fine , and allso the yoghurt, my dog has a small saucer full once in a while ,
Kathy Miller at 3:24 am - Reply

This was very good information to me, as my Doberman Pinscher LOVES cheese! I grate the cheese and mix it in small amounts in his food sometimes for a special treat. I wasn’t sure if it was bad, so I did not give too much. He seems to tolorate it ok, but Im sure moderation is the key. Ill try some yogurt for him now that I know it’s good for him.
Thanks,

  Barry and Kathy, glad you are trying the yoghurt aswell, its great for dogs but rarely used

Thanks Andrew!

Zara (aka Zoom, Zoomer Girl, The Zoo) will be so happy to know that she can still have her treats of cheese and her tuna and cheese omelette every now and then!

Thanks again – Have a great Easter!
