He was on prescription Diet A/D as he lost a lot of his wieght, which was good for him as he was very poorly & his apitite was their but everything he ate came back up & he had severe dihorria. He had damaged the lining of his stomach & tore the lining of his intestine because of the allergy & our local vet couldnt find what was the matter with him. He had an endoscopy in october which found these sites of his bleeding & sickness. Blood test showed some problems which was either pancriatitis or intolerance to a certain protien. he didnt really explain what the protien was called just said that it is found in most commercial pet food & was asked to try him on nothing but Royal Canin sensitivity control, in cans, not the dry food, for 12 weeks, which we did. alternatively we could put him on a fresh homemade diet of chicken & rice, as it is bland. We went for the canned option & Rolly got on really well with it & after 7 months he has put on most of the wieght he lost.

He has done really well, since starting him on the canned Royal Canin sensitivity control he has only been sick about 4 times in 7 months which is brilliant for him as he was really sick.


Hope this helps.

These little buddy biscuits sound good I will look into them & see if i can source them here in the UK
