Hello all, I'm new to Yorkie Talk! I have 2 yorkies, Chuck is 8 years old and Zoey is 7 years old. Chuck had been in the hospital twice in the past 6 months for pancreatitis. We did not know until now that he should've been on a low fat diet.

Just yesterday we gave both the dogs the lowfat food they gave us (it's W/D prescription diet low fat dry food), and it's like it goes right through them! They both couldn't hold it in the house, and when we got home this evening, poop was all over the house!

Zoey is very lean and thin, while Chuck is like a big fat sausage (17lbs). I am wondering what would be the best food for both of them. They've both eaten out of the same bowl ever since they were puppies, and it's very difficult to give them both different foods, without one getting into the other's.

Please let me know what I can do about this, thank you!!
