Dear Friends,
I read posts from you all alot of the time but rarely post. I feelI must post this info as I have not seen anything related to Yorkie's eating Barb Q pork.
My 11 month old precious yorkie is in the hospital on IV's with Acute pancreatitis and colitis due, we think, to an ingestion of pork last Tuesday night. I gave her a bite bite of meat whILE i was eating, only because she is such a picky eater and is pretty skinny. I normally give her RC yorkie mixed with Science Diet pellets only. WEll, when I went upstairs, her Daddy gave her more pork. She threw up the next morning , then developed severe diarrhea, we rushed her to Emergency Vet and she is now there, stable , but not out of the woods. He sees it around the 4th of July when people have leftovers of ribs, etc, and feed their dogs large quantitites. Up until now I viewed pork as just another source of protein, albeit , a little greasy. Ours was not greasy,but it hurt my Gia all the same. I am worried sick she will develop a conplication. I lovee my little girl.
So, beware what you feed, even meats are dangerous.
