Dogs can eat watermelon although too much watermelon can cause diarrhea in dogs.

However in moderation watermelon is a healthy and refreshing treat for your dog.

Dogs can also eat cottage cheese as cottage cheese is low in sodium and low in fat content.

Cottage cheese in moderation is healthy for dogs just like some other forms of cheese although too much cottage cheese fed to your dog can cause diarrhea and stomach upset.

Small amounts of cottage cheese are okay and healthy for dogs.

Cottage cheese is a curdled milk product also known as curds and whey with a mild flavor and a creamy, heterogenous, soupy texture.

The cottage cheese is made from skimmed milk by draining curds but retaining some of the whey and keeping the curds loose.

Cottage cheese is an excellent source of calcium, a mineral that plays a major role in tooth and bone health, and in the prevention of osteoporosis.

It also helps you to regulate your blood pressure and might even play a role in preventing certain cancers, such as prostate cancer.

Cottage cheese is called Crowdie in Scotland which has been made by the Crofters of Scotland for centuries.

In Gaelic cottage cheese is called Gruth.

Cottage cheese is a curdled milk product with a mild flavor and a creamy, heterogenous, soupy texture.

It is made from skimmed milk by draining curds but retaining some of the whey and keeping the curds loose.

Cottage cheese does not have rennet as traditional cottage cheese and Paneer is made without the use of rennet and is instead coagulated with vinegar or lemon juice which is an acidic ingredient.

Vegetarians cannot eat rennet as rennet comes from the stomach of ruminant animals such as goats and cows and is an enzyme.

Because rennet is obtained from animals it is not vegetarian.

The way you get rennet is by deriving the rennet from the stomach fat of a goat, lamb or calf.

Most stomach-derived rennet is taken from the fourth stomach of young, unweaned calves.

These animals are not killed expressly for their rennet; rather they are killed for meat production (in this case, veal) and the rennet is a byproduct.

Animal rennet is derived from the stomach of a calf, lamb or goat while their diets are still limited to milk, this is typically 90% pure chymosin.

 Vegetable rennet is made from a type of mold (Mucur Miehei).

However, even though it is derived from mold, there is no mold contained in the final product.
