  • Smen butter is heavily salted for preservation and prevention of bacterial contamination. Excessive consumption can lead to serious renal and cardiac issues in dogs.
  • Some smen butter contains added ingredients such as honey, olive oil, thyme, and oregano. Although individually, these are beneficial for dogs, they are difficult for dogs to digest if combined.
  • Much like most butter, smen has high-fat content; consuming generous amounts of it can lead to diarrhea and stomach upset. Its potential long-term side effects are pancreatitis, obesity, and heart disease.
