Archie had pancreatitis at about 7 or 8 months old and it was scarey, but we caught it early. The vet told me it doesn't always have to do with their diet -- with Yorkies it just happens sometimes. However, he had had a couple attacks of hypoglycemia before this and I think I overcompensated with feeding him too many fatty foods to interest him in his food (as a pup he was not a good eater). Archie still is prone to gastric problems -- I'm very careful with his diet. Now he only gets his kibble, and low-fat treats like carrots and apples.
