Can dogs eat vienna sausage?

Not advisable. Vienna sausages are really high in salt, and too much salt (what we consider to make the food taste good) can actually poison a dog. Their kidneys can shut down and they die a very painful death. I was at the vets office not too long ago where a dogs owner fed it bacon, and the dog ended up dying from it. I think it was a Pomeranian or something small like that. But dont let size fool you, a big dog can have the same thing happen. read more
