Nope, no lunch meat. Ham and other pork products are key triggers for pancreatitis. A co-worker of mine almost lost her Yorkie Sugar after her dad slipped her a tiny piece of ham during brunch.

"If you feed table scraps or cook for your dog, be sure to avoid fatty foods such as gravy, bacon, ham, sausage, margarine or processed foods. Feed only unseasoned meats and leave out the veggies and fruit."

Pancreatitis

You do not want to chance another attack. While pancreatitis is scary enough, repeated bouts can cause the pancreas to stop producing insulin (diabetes). Lady has been a diabetic for seven years and trust me, you don't want to have to give Miss Kitty insulin shots twice a day for the rest of her life.
