The feedback on here seems to be the same we all seem to mix some sort of food. Is this not good for them at all?

It is the high fat type of food and treats that irritate the pancreas. (Many dog treats are high in fat as well). Cottage cheese, yogurt, veggies, fruits, lean chicken and meats are okay. Basically healthy foods we should all eat!
Do be careful, your dog is older and once they have pancreatitis they are prone to get it again. My dog had chronic pancreatitis from the age of 3, kept under control until he was 8 years old, it was a real problem for the last two years of his life, severely limiting what he could eat. He did very well for a long time on this food:

He had to have things well cooked so it didn't irritate his system, so I would mix the above food with one egg, and add a jar of Strained chicken and Vegetables (Gerber), and bake it up like a brownie. He loved this diet, and much healthier and tastier than the dry prescription diets that he had before.
Good luck with your little one, pancreatitis is scary and painful!
