Can they eat it?

Can dogs and cats eat Bryndza (sheep cheese)?

DogOnly with care
CatOnly with care

Bryndza is a salty, fatty, crumbly sheep cheese. A tiny taste is unlikely to harm, but it is not a good treat because of its salt and fat.

Why

High salt and fat; lactose

Signs to watch for

  • vomiting
  • diarrhoea
  • excessive thirst

Good to know

Bryndzové halušky often come with bacon fat and škvarky — fatty and salty. Spreads such as šampión/liptauer may contain onion or chives, which are toxic. (Classification based on general advice for cheese, salt and fatty foods.)
