I have a 13 year old former puppymill "mommy dog" who has chronic pancreatitis. The vet recommended a prescription diet which she hands down refused to eat. So my husband cooks her a chicken and rice, including some organ meats and vitamins. He makes a batch and then freezes it into individual serving sized portions. She has done well on the diet, with few recurrences of the pancreatitis.

We've had her teeth cleaned twice in the past 5 years that we've had her, but as she ages she might not be able to endure the anesthesia in the future.

Do you or your mom have any thoughts on feeding a raw diet to a Yorkie with pancreatitis?
